Our Town

 In the end of February, Katelyn got to be in Our Town. She got a lead role- Mrs. Webb-and was really excited! It ended up being a really great show. Katelyn had to learn a lot of pantomime, and it was her first time playing a mother and a wife. She did a great job developing her character and had a natural chemistry with her children. She also had to really stretch her acting abilities to show the deep emotion of her child dying, and act the PDA involved in playing a wife! She was thrilled (and we were thrilled for her) as a 10th grader, to be a lead character alongside older actors that she had watched as leads in the past. 

Here's the pictures backwards again. This is an iconic scene from the show, it is done with very minimal props and no set! 

Here's us with our star!

Katelyn with her "daughter"- young Emily played by Hailey and adult Hailey played by Olivia.

Katelyn with her husband Ben!  And friend Phoebe (Mrs. Soames).

Between Ben and Liam for the bows- she got to stand in the front!

chatting with her daughter

In the final scene, a flashback for dead Emily. 

She had to not respond with ghost Emily pleaded with her to see her!

Crying and singing a hymn with Ben at Emily's funeral, and rejoicing at her wedding the scene before!

The wedding and Kate crying before the wedding!

So funny- talking to her soon-to-be son-in-law Brady-- and Ben freaking out when she leaves them alone haha

pantomiming serving her husband coffee.

chatting with friends 

with her children, and her neighbor.

a whole intricate pantomime of making breakfast while the narrators talked.

Great job Kate!
