That's Weird Grandma
The That’s Weird, Grandma cast is back from Grand Rapids Laughfest, where we performed and taught and had a great time in support of Gilda’s Club!
Sunday’s matinee is sold out, but come see us Monday night!
In honor of St. Patrick’s Day we will be adding a story about a Leprechaun! It is based on the following dialogue and monologue:
The Three Things by Ineiya J, Lauren H, and Mahogony Y, Dixon Elementary
The Setting is: A Rainbow Forest
Characters: Chimpanzee, Oscar; Leprechaun,Taylor; Panther, Keshia
O: (sadly walking) I’m looking for food
K: (help Oscar look for food) I am also hungry. I’ll help you look for food!
T: (walking by) I heard that you guys are hungry it’s some nuts at the end of the rainbow. Poof!
O: (happily sees the rainbow) Wow how do you do that?
K: Wait we can’t get passed there is a humugeous rock blocking the path.
T: I can poof a rainbow and some unicorns to get us pass.
O: (happily) Thanks you’ve been a lot of help is there anything I can do to repay you?
T: You guys can massage my feet.
K: Can we do something else.
O: I’ll do it if you got some gloves.
T: No! My feet don’t smell that bad.
O: I not touching those feet without gloves.
K: Thanks for helping us see you later.
(They walk off, leaving Taylor sad and alone)
The End
Character Monologue, Taylor the Leprechaun by Lauren H
I am not a leprechaun. I’m a vampire. I lied so I can be the hero. There is a button in the hat that is magical when I poofed up the rainbow and unicorns I pushed a button in the hat that activated it. It was not a real rainbow. Then I got the nuts out the forest and put a bowl of nuts at the end of the rainbow. Then at the end, I was the hero. The End

Three New Stories This Week!
NOT SO MUCH PRESSURE
by Lazaireus P, 5th Grade Morton 2012 Argument
(Song composed by Nicholas Hart)
I am Batman and I believe that I shouldn’t save the world every day. One reason why I think I shouldn’t have to save the world every day is because I is saving the world every day and he has a life and it should not just be about saving people because he could probably die just like other humans could. One more reason is because while he is outside trying to save the world who will save his family from danger because it’s not like he could teleport. The end
