I think she should stay in the room with him until he goes to sleep because then he won't worry about her and he won't get into mischief. I hope that he actually goes to sleep because then the old lady, if he wasn't asleep, is being kind of mean because she is just leaving him alone in the room. There are three options about how the house is moving and doing crazy stuff. It wasn't exactly like the book, because how can they move around in the book? It made the play more exciting. The pictures actually moved around like puppets. But it didn't just hang there it moved around! It tried to scare the little old lady whispering hush (Sarah Sevigny). The balloon looked like the actual balloon in the picture. And the pictures looked like the real ones in the book. I think Jacqueline and Richard Penrod were really good at making the set design because it looked exactly like the great green room. Then the curtain comes up and everybody was really excited about how much the stage looked like the actual great green room. It kind of made the kids see what it was going to be like when they were grown ups: that if they were sad, then they would remember happy things that happened when they were younger.
It kind of made the grown-ups in the audience remember when they were littler and they were read this book. When the show started Alex Goodrich came out as the Bunny when he was a grownup, and then he saw the book which was Goodnight Moon, and it was the book that his mom and dad read to him when he was a little boy. Everybody is going to like it because it is so funny. Once upon a time I went to a show, and it was called Goodnight Moon: The Musical! It was really awesome because there were these cool dance numbers that were all about different things that were in the room-for example, bears in chairs pop out of the painting in a little hole and the cow jumping over the moon. It think it is cool because it has things that don't happen in real life, but they would happen in a dream. I liked how it was romantic but also kind of touching and hilarious. I loved Orlando because it showed the relationship between men and women in different ways than I've seen in other plays.
You feel like you are really in the room with the characters. I like how they transform a big room into a tiny space. The satisfaction of this mystery is that you choose the ending. In The Moonstone you know what happens at the end in Old Times you have no idea what happens in the end.
I loved Old Times because of the mystery in it. Mysteries are one of my favorite kinds of writing because they usually have suspense and, if there is an intermission, you can try to figure out what happened to whatever has been stolen. The Moonstone was a really awesome show, and I saw it three times! I liked the plot which was trying to find a precious stone.
I also liked it because it had cool fight scenes which included comedy. I think Cyrano was a really awesome show because it had panache! Panache means poetry-ness, and it had a lot of poetry in it, and I like poetry. I was sad that all the people died, but I was happy that the actors got to make moonlight. It made you feel sad but also made you feel happy at the exact same time. I loved Burning Bluebeard because there were lots of different kinds of funniness and lots of different kinds of scariness.
