I realized this when Mac was on stage last night for the third time in the show. I cry every time he is up on stage...seriously tears falling down my cheeks, total dorky mom crying. Can't help it...too proud of him and my heart just swells when I see the ear to ear smile on his face...he LOVES it up there on stage.
He had four performances of the musical Good News this weekend. (He's wearing his fly costume in the photo) Sean and I caught the last one. It's been such a surreal experience having him be at rehearsals and performances all this week. Way back in the day Mac's dad and I met in Mrs. Seeley's drama class in high school. We worked on all the various plays and musicals together whether it was cast or crew. So to see Mac be a part of musical theater is extra special.
The other amazing thing was the show was GOOD. To be honest, besides seeing Mac perform I wasn't really looking forward to it. However, the place he's been attending classes puts on a very impressive show. I didn't realize teenagers made up half the cast and they were excellent, beautiful voices, great comic timing, and some cool choreography. I sat there dreaming that one day that would be Mac in one of the lead roles. We will see, but so far it seems as if we've really found a niche for him. So hopefully there will be many more shows for me to cry my way though.
