The Elephant's Child

We performed the Reader's Theatre
THE ELEPHANT'S CHILD
 Thursday, February 10th at Stansbury Clubhouse Library

 Pamela Giles -- reacting dramatically -- in purple, of course.

Lory Crofts playing the drums.  "Once, in the far off times, there was an elephant, an elephant's child, who was full of satiable curiosity."

It was a really fun show.  We had a great time.  Thank you, Ladies!  You were awesome!
