First recital.


Overall, Lulu's first performance in front of an audience consisting of real, live people as opposed to a dozen or so stuffed animals, went off without a hitch.  There were no real "deer in headlights" moments, and in fact, she seemed to relish being in the spotlight.


(Who's the ham-iest of them all?)


The only real issue arose towards the end of the number when the dancers were to return to their assigned spots on the stage.  In all of the movement and excitement a few dancers got confused and  returned to the wrong places and, being Type A and somewhat bossy (no clue where she gets that), our little Lulu decided there was no time like the present to discuss the fact that the dancer next to her was, in fact, in her designated area and this would simply not do.  In the brief moment of silence after the music stopped and the applause began, the words heard loud and clear round the room were "that's MY spot!"  Way to steal the show doll.  Brava.
