Default I am doing my first show A L O N E

The company I have been working for has been

happy with my work. I have been doing the

costume characters and some face painting etc. but

not alone. WELL, I am scheduled to do a show

this weekend. It is for twelve 7 yr old little girls.

I am doing games, face painting and balloons. My

face painting is not bad, my balloons are ok but

on the slow side. I am excited but also a bit nervous.

Happy that they think I can do it.

Congrats! Will you be performing as a character or a clown or just you?
You'll do great! Don't worry!

Congratulations, Darsee!

I'm sure you will do great! Just keep on talking
to the kids and they won't notice that your balloon
animals are a little slow -- In fact, I use that time
to visit with each child and "personalize" the time
I get to spend with them.

Default Awww thanks

Thanks for the encouragement.

I will be in my clown attire. I thought I would

bring a changing bag and put the girls

rings in there and make them appear. (my company

gives little gifts to the kids)

Thanks again.

Default Change Bag

My Change bag is one of my favorite magic prop items because it's soooo versitile. Thats sounds like a great way to start it, and you could make a whole act around it too...
