Brooklyn Family Theatre has officially disbanded—but our farewell, held back on the fifteenth, was an unqualified success. (As was Brooklyn Family Theatre, to my mind.)

Jenn hosted the farewell show. Kanova, Dawn, Hector and the BFT kids all sang. Many regulars and parents were in the audience to see us off, only two or so of whom were truly nutjobs. And even the nutjobs cried—everyone cried, in fact, except for me and Phill. (I was too worried that the AV equipment I borrowed from work was going to overheat, whereas Phill doesn’t really cry, he just eats cookies.)

In the middle of the show, Jenn hosted a BFT-themed Who Wants to Be a Millionaire segment, with costumes and props from our shows as prizes. Max was the first contestant, and he gradually incorporated his winnings into his ensemble as he played--by the end of his round, he was sitting on stage in bat wings, a lion robe and a top hat, carrying a stuffed duck.

Later, Max redistributed all the props and costumes to the kids who had worn them in their appropriate shows; the Robin Hood of the BFT costume trunk.

Alas, this article of clothing has proven most useful to us...in furthering our endeavor...to resurrect the Victorian era...
