Backstage during the show...
This is Clarice, who leaves her beautiful home in Hawaii every summer to spend the school year in West Lafayette studying engineering! She is the sound technician for the Purduettes and a total sweetheart!
In the green room with the Kids Choir!
The kids were fascinated with my camera and decided to take some pictures...serious close-up pictures! They were funny.
The view of an empty Elliott Hall from the stage.
Getting our line-up set before the show. It was so fun to meet all of these amazing alumni!
Back with old friends...
Israel, who like me works in TV and is also a Second City comedian in Chicago! So proud!
Greg, who is now married and expecting (well, his wife is expecting. He's not like that creepy dude on the news who got pregnant). He is going to be a great dad!
Kelly stopped by the alumni room to say hi on her way onstage. She was one of my little sisses when I was in Purduettes!
Chris, who now works for the Purdue Alumni Center. He and I will be doing a civic theatre show together this spring!
Jeff, who is engaged and getting married this spring. He is such a sweet guy and loves trying to imitate Will Farrell's Robert Goulet impression. GOULET!
Monica, my roommate for three years. She now works at PMO and is graduating at the end of this week!
Sunday afternoon I got to sit out in the house with my family and watch the show. Then I surprised my mom by being a part of the alumni set! She couldn't believe I kept it a secret from her...hehe!
The Purduettes and PMO Kids Choir onstage. The girls were, in my probably biased opinion, the best part of the show! I was so proud!
The Glee Club onstage.
After the last show, it's tradition to sing a song written for PMO, "There Will Always Be a Song." That definitely made me cry! What a memorable weekend!
Coming soon, more stories from the newsroom...it's been a busy week!
Until later!
