I didn’t have many opportunities to see plays as a kid. I really can’t say that I would have enjoyed (or had an appreciate for) them then. It took me about 30 years, but I got my first one with Wicked. I only made it to intermission (LONG STORY), but I knew this was an art that I had to expose my kids to. Tonight, through a post-school field trip, I got the chance. Thing 1 got her very first Playbill!
While some of the content was above her head (#AsItShouldBe) she had a great first experience, and so did I. Because while I had been to a play before, this was our first time. There is so much joy in being able to enjoy the firsts. As the kiddos get older, those firsts are not as frequent. BUT, I will make it my business to be present for as many as I can.
Until the next first…
