Fezziwig 'asplode
The final weekend of Dickens has come and gone :(
I had a smashing time, made new friends, got to wear a pretty dress, dance 'till I couldn't walk, hear tunes I love and do polka sets, feast on pork buns, lead, backlead, and be led, experience some surprisingly good novice partners, be amazed at children's freaky powerful brains, be surprised by Queen Victoria's daily 3 pm visit to the Fezziwig warehouse (it's completely unexpected every time!), play delightful games (and even find Stagecoach agreeable after a while), be Mary and flip out at John, waddle like a penguin, have tea at Cuthbert's, become mildly addicted to having my hair braided by professionals (after only one time), and finally get silly tipsy after half a glass of champagne at the cast party just because of how tired I was. Now There's a whole year before my life and my body take such a beating again, and I can't wait for it.
