Popcorn Drama

Grandma and grandpa have talked to us for a while about some plays where they allow the audience to throw popcorn or money to the villain (the money to anybody who caught it first). So we decided to take the kids to it.
At first they thought more the popcorn was to eat.. so we didn't give it to them till after it started. Here they are waiting for the show to start. (By the way, Samuel decided that mosquitoes wont bit him if he were his soccer socks..)The floors still so clean.. And my boys waiting and waiting since to get those front sits you had to be early.. Even though, some friends were a lot earlier and were saving seat.. Thank you Jim and Cherie.
They explained the rules (throw only popcorn or bills folded for flying purposes), and the play began.. They were pretty confused when they saw people throwing popcorn.. but, then they saw how funny it looked and asked for their bucket. And wouldn't sit much after that.. This video shows it good. Love the expressions of their faces.. so into it:j
These were some of the cast, the hero, the heroin, and the sister.. and the villain.
It was hilarious when people threw money, because they looked like popcorn but as they were performing they kept looking at what was thrown to literally "dive" for it. Sometimes, they got so into it, they forgot their lines for a minute..
The kids sure have a blast and so did we. Since the theater was inside a national park, they also had a big playground just outside of it. So we let the kids burn some energy. Daddy gladly volunteer to take them!The park had big slides and Benjamin was excited to clime it instead of going down.
Then they discover the merry-go-round, and daddy carrying Benjamin helped them push and was having as much fun as the kids in it.
Jay also tried to climb the straight slide.. not a good idea.
Unfortunately, on the way back the shrimp Samuel ate before the play plus the popcorn at the play, and the merry-go-round didn't agree with his stomach so decided to vomit on our way home. Fortunately, he had a little blanket since he was cold, so most of it got on his car seat, clothes and the blanket. We had to get him with car seat and all out of the car to wash.. I wanted to take a picture because he looked so funny but I know he would had felt bad, and embarrassed so I didn't.
We loved it and for sure will go back some other time for another wonderful play and a lot of fun.
This is a freaky but funny picture of two priceless expressions..
Who says that throwing food during a show is not a good form of entertaintment and totally available?!
