Sharks & Jets

[Alnus Rubra]

Our son Scott made us very proud last week. He completed his second show of the year.

This show was West Side Story, with the Dundee Schools Musical Theatre. He took the lead role as Tony.



Four nights to a packed auditorium, standing ovations and very well received.



The cast was made up of 14-16 year olds. There was an incredible amount of singing, dancing and acting talent on stage.



The show was given rave reviews in the local press and online.





Sorry for the gushing post, but I can’t help but be a proud Dad.

Scott’s duet with his Maria brought tears to his Mother’s eyes. There must have been some dust in the Theatre, because those certainly weren’t tears in my eyes!

So cool.

What a talented lad. You definitely should be proud. Is it videoed somewhere? Me and my family would love to see Scott in action

Gush pop....that's part of the returns on what we put in as parents from day one. Congratulations!

Killer story (even if you are not from the West Side)! Congrats to your young man Scott and his deservingly proud family!! Now get down to the theater and clean up all that dust so others are not affected in a similar fashion ;~))

When it’s online, I’ll send you and Ola a link.

He came off stage on the last night, came up to me, threw his arms around me and said:

“Thanks for giving me my singing voice!”

There are no words.

 

[Alnus Rubra]

Thanks everyone for your kind words.

 

[sergiodeblanc]

Bangin’!

 

[aamefford]

Awesome!!!

 

[RickP]

Yes sir, that is something to brag on!

 

[Maertl513]

It's a self-evident feeling being proud of the own children, especially when they do arts which provide joy for other not family - and biased - related persons.
It would be fun, if ones your son and @László granddaughter will act in the same production.

 

[NazgulUK]

Fantastic!!!

 

[aphantomvaper]

That's so awesome! Congrats man, those things are what makes a poppa proud!

 

[bodia]

Reub, so happy for you and the family. That's quite an accomplishment, and you should shout it from the rooftops! Cheers!

 

[andy474x]

Love it!

Always glad to see these young people taking part in the arts... it's hard to appreciate how rare opportunities like that are in adult life, not to mention having the time to partake in them and really put your time and effort into it.

 

[show_a_little_faith]

So cool - you are right to be proud!

 

[Prina]

That is so awesome!

Love it when kids are the gift that keeps on giving. Huge congrats!
