I went to see Eddy in The Jungle Book play at St. Paul School. The play and music is all owned by Disney and this was the version for kids. This year Patty was not in the play having graduated and gone on to high school. I went, as I did last year, on opening night. The audience was not permitted to take any photographs or record the show during the performance, which was fine with me, since I do not do that anyway.
Eddy played the part of a rock. The rock had to wear pants and a shirt that were too big. There were two rocks. When I first heard about the part that Eddy got in the play I assumed that it would be him occupying space on the stage. The rock part sung almost all the songs and they even had a line that they did solo. It was a fun play to watch. I enjoyed it.
This is Eddy’s last play at St. Paul School. It has yet to be seen what kind of after-school activities he will participate in at Archbishop Hoban next year. He was accepted and so far it is looking like he will be trying out for football and try his hand at art. I am hoping for another good year.
