Aaliyah’s Production Diary

Day 1

As the gangsters were talking and polishing their car we got a key to go on stage. We were heading on stage being all cool and fluffing our collars. I was very excited and I remembered all the moves of by heart. We have only been practising for around about 2-3 weeks. When I started dancing I saw Miss Hill dancing. I started giggling. Guess what? I'm in the front line for Grease lightning and Lion King! All the dancers are lucky because all the dancers get 2 dances to do.

Day 2

Yesterday we ran through the whole show it was amazing. I felt like I was a star shinning and shimmering in the light. Did I tell you the lights were just horribly bright? I felt wonderful, happy and excited anything just not angry and mad you know that sort of thing. It was so awesome to have the lights and curtains up and I think the UFO (spaceship) was ready. When the lion king song came on I started dancing and the music wasn't loud enough but I kept on dancing. I like the production - it is fun. (You know one day I can be a super star!)

Day 3

"Awesome" (yay) dress rehearsal time. Today we had a dress rehearsal it was fun everyone had a funky costume. Me, I had to wear a bow tie, ears, tails and jacket. You know what I'm talking about right? Well of course you do, it's the Lion King dance. When I went on stage I had tingly butterflies in my stomach. While the other people were performing I got ready for my next dance. It is Grease Lightning. We wore some spunky sassy supper glasses, jeans and a plain white top.
