Great Big Boo

We went with some of Holly's friends from school to see the Great Big Boo. Holly saw it 2 years ago and still talks about it sometimes!

They encourage dressing up to see the performance, so we put on our Hallowe'en costumes - the Tooth Fairy and Minnie Mouse!


In the lobby of the theatre were some inflatable Hallowe'en decorations . . .


As we were entering the theatre to find our seats, one of the ushers looked at Holly to try and guess what her costume was . . .    she noticed the big tooth necklace I had made, and said, "You're the Tooth Fairy!". Holly was thrilled!

Near the end of the show - you can see Sammy Joe the Scarecrow, Cranium the Mad Scientist, Justin, Frankie the Lounge Singer, Zoe, Wendella the Witch, Priscilla the Princess and Wolfgang the Werewolf.


After the show, Holly wanted to find as many of the characters as she could - she wanted to take pictures with all of them. The fact that they were handing out treats for "trick or treating" didn't really have anything to do with it - really!

Zoe, one of the main characters - she and her brother Justin are trick or treating in Boo Alley and have to save Hallowe'en!


After the show, we were all invited to Sienna's house by her parents, Ruby and Jason. We had dinner there and ended up having lots of fun dancing to Indian music. Here is Steve, Katie's dad showing off his castanet skills. We don't have any pictures of how the guys looked later, but suffice it to say, they all had a bit too much (ask Paul about the tequila!).
