It was three years ago that the fourth grade last presented the Cecil Floyd Christmas program, titled North Pole Exposure. At the time, it was the most elaborate and most colorful set Cecil Floyd has ever seen. The production was one with tired elves, militant reindeer, and a party-animal Mrs. Claus. Mr. Claus was brilliantly played and, of course, set the whole situation on the right path in the end.
This year, our program will take a different bent. Therefore, the set will be more subdued, and yet, we think, it will succeed in its brilliant and classic simplicity. The program will have you wondering whether the family will make it "Home [to Grandmother's house] for the Holidays". I won't tell any more about the plot, here, in hopes of preserving the suspense. With the theme to the production, we are designing a set to reflect a cold, snowy winter. We are taking you to the woodsy outdoors for this one, to follow the family's struggle to get to Grandma's house.
We really try to make our programs special for our students, and we hope to present some special surprises along the way. Want to help? Please let me know. The production is really just around the corner, with "dress rehearsals" in front of the student body during the day on Friday, December 14, and for families the evening of December 17.
