I spent the day with my mother-in-law today. I treasure every minute since she is 91 years old. We were discussing my granddaughter's disappointment that they had canceled her play this year at school. All of a sudden, MomE turned to me and said did I tell you that I was in plays in school? The adrenaline rushed. 'No, you have not.' "Well, I was, I was in several of them, I even helped direct some. It was my life. I loved every minute of it." 'That is awesome! Do you remember the names of any of them?' "No, only the one I had the lead part in,
Sally Ann Finds Herself. You won't find it anymore." 'Be careful Mom, I can find it.' "They won't have it. You'll see."
Well folks, I found it. Internet Archive had a copy of the book which you can flip through digitally and read. I was so excited, I can't wait to print a picture and take it to her. She will love it.
It is an eighth grade play, so she must have been in Jr High School. There is a great story around her and her love of drama.
I also found that because of her dysfunctional family, she quit HS and started working. There are lots of stories I hope to capture in the coming years (I hope) . The play is cute. Have a read, and go back in time.
