First Live Play

The Seattle Children's Festival is in full swing this weekend and part of the activities is a production company from Quebec named Le Theatre de Quartier. They created a play specifically for toddlers called Glouglou and two of their performances were in french.

I was intrigued and thought it would be fun for Chickpea and I to attend. I bought two tickets to the french show and we had a great time. The venue was small and very intimate. The children and adults sat on the floor around the ground stage and the play lasted about 50 minutes. Chickpea sat in my lap the entire time and didn't budge, her eyes were fixed on what was going on and laughed when it was funny. At the very end when the actors were taking their bows, Chickpea said loud enough so that everyone could hear her proclaim with a wave of her hands "All Done, Bye-Bye". Everyone turned towards us and laughed, it was hilarious!

Le festivale des enfants de Seattle est en fin de semaine et une de leurs activities est une maison de production du Quebec qui s'appele Le Theatre de Quartier. Ils ont cree un spectacle pour les jeunes enfants Glouglou et deux de leurs representations sont en francais.

J'etais intriguee et j'ai pensee que ce sera une belle sortie pour Chickpea et moi. J'ai achete deux billets pour une des representations en francais et on a eu du bon temps. C'etait petit et tres intime. Les enfants et parents etaient assis par terre autour de la scene et la piece a duree environ 50 minutes. Chickpea etait assise sur moi tout le temps et n'a pas bougee, ses yeux etaient fixees sur la scene et a ris quand c'etait drole. A la toute fin, pendant que les comediens faisaient leurs saluts, Chickpea a dit assez fort pour que tout le monde entendent avec un signe de la main "All Done, Bye-Bye". Tout le monde s'est vire vers nous et riant, c'est tres drole!
