Knoggin Knitting Presents "Canada Day Celebrations"
Scene: An azure sky, a vast expanse of lush grass, vendors, white tents full of prizes and bingo, a red & white splashed crowd bursting with snippets of praise, pride and chocolate dipped ice creams. Yes, in that order.
It's Canada Day with Unraku and we performed our first outdoor show to an ever expanding crowd of happy people. Our band shell was behind the umpire's plate in a baseball diamond and our audience came in from the outfield to shout encouragement and laugh out loud. With our last minute alterations to choreography and limited practice we dazzled them with our passion for puppetry. With their applause we knew they forgave us our folly for wearing all black on a cloudless 27 degree day. We did it!
Much encouraged for the larger shows to come, here we come Canada!
Happy 141st birthday! (Lookin' good ole Girl!)
It's a great day to make puppets.
