Hello from Finland!

Hello from Turku!

I couldn't wait any longer without checking in on all of my friends back home at Kaleidoscope! I hear that things are going really well, and a huge part of me wishes that I hadn't left! There's so much that I'm already missing, that I can't stand to think of how much more I won't be around for once the summer rolls around.

Things are going really well here! My cabin is about half the size of the Green Room, and I share it with another musician... and the shower is probably only 2'x2'... so there certainly some annoying things we have to deal with! But the gym is spectacular! Every elliptical/treadmill/etc. has a TV on it, so that you don't get bored while you're working out! And the ship is simply beautiful. And the shows are great! They present a number of challenges (there's one flute part that is KILLER... but I've got it pretty much under control), but I think I'm doing pretty well at them :)

And the websites are uploading in Finnish! I had to click "uusi teksti" to create a new post! Fun stuff...

I'll post more later, but I'm about to go bowling... I miss you all!

I'd love to hear from you!!

WINNER!

Congratulations Siara! She is the winner of this month's online contest! The contest, which was announced in our April Newsletter, challenged our fans and members to find a hidden trivia question (on our blogs) and then locate the answer (on our website).

The question: "What was Kaleidoscope Theatre's first fairytale musical?"

The Answer: Little Red Ridinghood

Little Red, Mother Goose, and Pinocchio made up Kaleidoscope's first season of fairytale musicals in the summer of 1982. For more on Kaleidoscope's history, check out our website at http://www.kaleidoscopetheatre.com/History.htm

The photo of Siara as 'Ralph Piggy' is from the 2005 Summer production of "The Three Pigs". This year, Siara will be playing 'Ziggy Piggy'.
