once on this island jr.

my school is doing a production called once on this island-- and of course it's the jr. version because we are in the middle school. we have two weeks left of rehearsals and then we go on to the stage! it's lots of fun so far. i really like the songs, they are so beautiful sounding :) The story is a little weird. The basic story line is--a girl is found in the middle of a storm, she is saved by an old couple, she saves a boy in a crash(the boy is from the other side of the island), she wants to go looking for the boy when she is older, the boy gets married to a different women who lives on their side of the island, the girl dies and turns into a tree :) if that makes any sense..... we are showing it the 13th and 14th of november. so far it has been lots of fun!
