The previous concert was somewhat disappointing because there were one or two performers who did not meet my expectations (i.e. squeaking on the saxophone, failing to play a note, etc.). Hence, I did not have many expectations for this concert either. Both performances occurred in the same venue, however, this time there were some brass performing off-stage.

    Becca barged through the doors of the Opera House weighed down by a heavy ballet tote, a substantially stuffed garment bag, and an oversized platter of peanut butter cup cookies. She moved steadily in the direction of the designated cookie drop-off. When she finally got to the changing room, only a few other girls had arrived. Miss Claudine was in the back of the room talking on her cell. She waved at Becca. “I’m so excited!” Abby cried. “I can’t believe it’s finally here,” Shannon added with a
