Annie Jr.was without power and the show went on

TLR,
 
I attended the November 13th performance of Annie Jr., by the Lisbon High School Drama Club. 

Before the start of the play, Ms. Fox welcomed us and talked about her group of young men 

and women with such praise and emotion.  Ms. Fox said the group of actors had only six weeks

 to prepare.  
 
This group did a fantastic job...WELL DONE!  The directing, acting, singing and props were 

executed with passion and professionalism.  I am so proud of these students.  
 
The power went out with only one scene left in the play.  Ms. Fox announced that the 

show will go on as the  students had worked so hard to prepare for this night.  Ms. Fox 

held a flashlight up so the actors could be seen.  Even without lights and background music 

they completed the show.  The power outage didn't stop them.  The audience gave them a well 

deserved standing ovation.  BRAVO!!
