Madeleine (12) is performing in Gumshoe, a spy musical comedy with Eltham Little Theatre, Melbourne. It was on last Friday,Saturday and Sunday and there will be another 3 performances this coming weekend. The kids all take a few parts. Maddy, as a bag lady, opens the show. Tarl says that she was great. (That's a Mother's unbiased view!!) If you want to read about the show, click on the Gumshoe link in the title and scroll down until you reach Gumshoe. I found a review on the internet. It reads --------

Bec 16-July-2009 10:25 Its a fantastic show - great sets, wonderful costumes and the young cast are very good - a fun, quality show for all the family!
I'm so glad and grateful that at least 2 of my grandkids are into acting and singing. They were my greatest loves. Sam, (11) was Mowgli in Jungle Book last year and this August, his group, Mel-O-Drama will be performing again. My famous memory has forgotten the production but I remember thinking that the quick witted, fast talking part was perfect for Sam.
It's a great pity that we are in Moree and not able to see the kids in their plays. Maybe I'll make the big effort to see them both on Broadway in 10 years time!!!!!
