There comes a time in every young girl’s life when she arrives home after a stressful work week with a costume party to attend in three hours and absolutely no idea what to wear. The party: Jeniqua’s Farewell (I must stop crying. I must stop crying.) The theme/costume requirement: “Something you love.” My wardrobe: Devoid [...]

And so, after tales of tears, trampolines, toys, ice cream, singing, SeaChange, and whales, we come to the last installment of my weekend at Moruya with the Strange Weather Gospel Choir. Warning, folks: this is  a long’un, as I’ve decided I need to tie this escapade up for all our sakes. I recommend you grab [...]

Moruya Part Three: Unexpected Magic at the Beach

by Hannah on October 31, 2011

I believe we last left Moruya when Fi, Dan, Andy and I were celebrating our choir’s first performance by indulging in glorious ice cream (no matter what was said in the comments, I still maintain that rainbow paddlepops beat chocolate paddlepops forever).

My parents, brother, and I went to a Musica Viva concert, not quite like old times. You see, unlike when we attended Musica Viva [...]

There was a day in London in early February, and it was a good day for Hannahs to enjoy birthdays. It started with one Hannah giving the other Hannah the gift of waking up far too early in the morning. After defeating the brutal winds of icy hatred on the Hungerford Bridge, the Hannahs triumphed in their quest to [...]

Every day you play with the light of the universe. Subtle visitor, you arrive in the flower and the water. You are more than this white head that I hold tightly as a cluster of fruit, every day, between my hands. … I go so far as to think you own the universe. I will bring [...]

How can I hope to make you understand Why I do what I do, Why I must travel to a distant land, Far from the home I love.  The song “Far From the Home I Love” has long been one of my favourites from Fiddler on the Roof, yet it was only during my fifth [...]

The Actual Real Big Reveal

by Hannah on February 4, 2010

Once upon a time, there was a girl who went to Savannah. She had a blog. (And despite what this blog implied on January 3rd, she did not grow up to be some man’s fancy woman.) In between visiting grocery stores, meandering around River Street, and admiring her tiara (all “once upon a time” stories include tiaras, right?), this girl [...]

And if our good fortune never comes, Here’s to whatever comes, Drink l’chaim, to life! Donald Westwood, executive producer of AIM Management’s Fiddler on the Roof introduced the show by thanking us, the audience, for “taking a chance” on the new company. Fiddler on the Roof is AIM Management’s inaugural production, and Westwood informed us we [...]
