Oliver...... "More Please"......

Today the Dreamers attended OLIVER.  An addaptation of the Charles Dickens classic Oliver Twist.  We were guests of Mrs. Montgomery at the Actors Playhouse, on Miracle Mile.  The day started with a bus ride to Miracle Mile, once we arrived we walked a block to have a nutrious lunch at Subways.... "EAT FRESH"....  Being that we have been here several times, the dreamers were well in tune with the routine: get in line, order, sit, eat, and converse before the curtain rises.  It is always nice to have strangers come by and ask, "what group/school is this"? and say "they are so well behaved" in a surprised tone.  Once lunch was done, we walked across the street to the theatre, approached the will call window, distributed the tickets and were escorted to our seats by the ushers. 
As the characters came to life, the audience was treated to classic songs such as: Food Glorious Food, Consider Yourself, Pick a Pocket or Two, As Long As He Needs Me, I'd Do Anything, and many more!  The crowing moment came at the end, as the cast began their curtain call and one of our dreamers stood and yelled, "I love you Oliver".  Priceless!
