This past weekend, we experienced three wonderful hours of musical theater, not once, but twice. David participated in Pasadena Jewish Temple and Center’s musical theater production of Music Man.
Although one would expect a low-budget, community-based, volunteer-driven production to flop harder than a Sunday morning sitcom, as it has before, PJTC has risen above expectations and produced a splendid rendition of a Broadway Musical. From the talented, mostly Temple-member orchestra, to the incredibly detailed costumes and makeup, to the near-professional acting and singing, to the fun and flashy choreography- everything went without a hitch.
This was David’s first lead role in the more than 9 plays he’s participated in, and he really showed us what he’s made of. He danced, he sang, and he acted his way into everyone’s heart.
