Willy Wonka Musical

As part of the after school program and as a fund raiser for the school, Hrishika took part in the musical "Willy Wonka" by Starting Arts. The play is based on the book Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by Roald Dahl. They met for twice a week for about 3 months to learn and practice. We got to enjoy the play on the 14th of April. Here's a word from the director about the play.

The play was divided into 2 Acts with a total of 20 scenes. Hrishika played the roles of a Candy Kid and Oompa Loompa.

The musical was great. All the kids did a great job. Bravo!!!

Twirled Animals

Hrishika's friend Monu gave her twirled paper craft kit for her 10th birthday. It comes with thin strips of colorful paper and a special tool for twirling and of course instructions on how to make different animals etc. Hrishika chose to make the above animals. They do look cute.
