The rehearsals are over.  The final curtain has closed, and we are in the “recovery” stages of this year’s dance performance. Sophie was a mermaid and a small crocodile in the York County Ballet’s spring production of Peter Pan.  I do not have the photos of the crocodile costume.  Sam, my budding Jr. photographer,  took those and we’ll get them later.  So, for now we will have to make do with a selection of photos of the mermaid.  None of the photos are from the actual performance.  Apparently the “flying system” they employed for Peter was hush-hush.  Sophie did a splendid job, though she was constantly peering into the audience for a familiar face.  I’m sure that will wear off by next year.
