Let your freak flag fly............

If you have just asked yourself.......Is Stephanie smoking crack??? Has she been drinking wine again???.....or, What the heck is she talking about all this freak flag talk............

YOU ARE NOT ALONE:)

Our Seats.............Not bad..........
One of the "perks" of Jeff's job is occasionally we are offered a great deal on theater tickets (we were able to purchase Diego live tickets before even the pre-sale). Jeff's firm offered tickets to the pre-broadway show "Shrek, The Musical" --- It is slated to open on Broadway December 14. Brendan didn't want to go --- Whitlee was WAY WAY excited and I wanted to see what it was all about...................................

Brian d'Arcy James as Shrek

Sutton Foster as the "adult" Princess Fiona

They had 3 different people playing Princess Fiona. A young Fiona, A teenage Fiona and the adult Fiona. --- they were AMAZING!!!!

Christopher Sieber as the WONDERFUL AMAZINGLY FUNNY Lord Farquaat!!! Seriously!! This guy performed on his knees!!!!!!!! We LOVED the scene where Lord Farquaat was taking a bath --- "Magic Mirror" was scrubbing his feet and was fighting hard to keep it together --- Let's just say "Magic Mirror" laughed his ass off!!! We LOVED IT!!!!!

Sadly, I couldn't find any photos of Donkey --- LOVED HIM!!! What a freaking voice!!!!! and the woman who was the dragons voice --- WOW!!!!!!!!!! she blew me away!!!!!!

My 2 favorite songs..............Donkey Pot Pie (sung by the dragon) and FREAK FLAG!!!!! LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT!!!!!!! They have not recorded the soundtrack yet.........they are waiting until they get to Broadway and it will be available in January -- I am SO getting it!!!!

Here are some shots of Whitlee Jane -- Brendan was having NOT PART OF THE PICTURE TAKING!!!!! For a boy who DID NOT want to go it said it was probably his favorite (even higher than RENT) YIKES!!!

It was AMAZING!!!!

Whitlee during intermission --- love how she winks at my cellphone camera!!!!!

If you have the chance to see this show............RUN DON'T WALK!!!!!! It says that it isn't for small children........If your child has seen the Shrek movie -- no problem............

It was to put it simply "AMAZING"......oh, wait!! I have already said that. Let's see...engaging, fun for parents as well as children. The music oh the music --- we all had favorites

As if it couldn't get any better..............What they had PINK GLITTER SHIRTS!!!!! We got one for Whitlee and she exclaimed............(Ready Amy:))............

FAB---LEE---US!!!!!!

It was so fun!! I am thrilled that my kids love the theater!!!! Jeff even enjoyed himself but held back when I asked if it was better than watching a football or soccer game???? He said it was better than watching the Seahawk/49er game today..............That being said I'll close with this.....I saw the last 3 minutes of the game........LOVED IT.......(but than again I am a 49er fan:) :) :))
