    Stage envy!

    Last Friday my wife and I took my daughter to celebrate her birthday. We went to a local hot spot for restaurants and shops. They also have a court for entertainment, this is free and usually is amateur performers. Some of the entertainment is pretty good. Tonight when we were there, there was a group of young ladies dancing. They tapped danced changed costumes and did a novelty number then back to tap dancing with even different costumes with the traditional kick line. All in all there were nine girls all about high school age and very impressive.
    When they showed up they were sporting high heels, short skirts about mid thigh with a slit up the leg, white blouse and black satin “Bomber” jacket with their groups name on it. The costume change was really smooth be cause two of the girls dropped of early and changed and as the other girls finished they came out and sang some song about their “dream boy”. They now had taken off their jackets and put on a poodle skirt and danced to Bill Halley”s “Rock Around the Clock.” Between costume changes this time they had a trio of girl not from the dancers sing a couple of contemporary fun songs about Santa. Then the girls came out in these red velvet costumes like the “Mean Girls” costumes and did a tap number including the kick line. They were good, I should know because when I was a teenager my sister was doing the same thing in Las Vegas at the Sahara Hotel. And yes I got to see a lot of that while growing up.
    At the end of the performance starting from the shortest girl they stepped forward as the introduced themselves. When they came to the last and tallest girl, who I thought was one of the best dancers, she took her step forward and took her wig off and said her name “Josh! Yes, I am a boy.” Wow was everybody supised including me.The he/she was very attractive. I was glad he was one of the better dancers because I watched him a lot. I think I wold have enjoyed him more had I known before his revealing as boy. I would have thought something would have tipped me off, but he was very convincing. His figure, size and demeanor wereall very feminine. When they changed out of the last dance costume they went back tho the black skirt outfit they first danced in. They were not performing now and they just mingled at the change area. He was back in the wig and completely into girly form. Wow what a dream come true for that young man. I wonder how he ever got to be so lucky?
    My daughter said to me afterward, “Dad, would you have done something like that when you were younger?”Hmm! Now that’s a question that doesn’t need much thought.

    Somebody get that young performers name and telephone number, so that when they're old enough they can be invited to join here and tell us how they got so fortunate. I'd love to know.

    (sigh!)

    I guess it's a DIFFERENT, ( and maybe BETTER?), CD world today, Shaylee!?
    U can't keep doing the same things over and over and expect to enjoy life to the max. When u try new things, even if they r out of your comfort zone, u may experience new excitement and growth that u never expected.

    Challenge yourself and pursue your passions! When your life clock runs out, you'll have few or NO REGRETS!

    Hell, I do stuff like that now Hon.I've been in shows and dance my dance and strut my stuff. There is no age limit to having fun. It's when we take it too seriously that the problems come in. Go for it.

    It would have been fun to talk to Josh and watch him make up and all to try to pick up tips and advice. When they pass that nicely, it's rewarding to look on as an aspiring girl.

    Glad you had a great time.

    What? No pictures? Seriously, to be that young again. I know I keep saying that, but I often wonder how differently things might have been.

    Darn kids. They don't know how rough we had it when we were young. Wait until Josh has to walk uphill both ways to the drag club in five inch heels and a blizzard!

    Some things are changing for the better; this seems to be a sign of that positive change.
    It sounds wonderful--and good for Josh and his group!
    warmly, Linnea

    What a great story! Turn back the clock! Time is our greatest ally, attitudes have been changing very gradually over the last few decades, but our newest generation is much more receptive to change than people my age at least. Whether it acceptance of our LGBT friends or just generally having a more progressive view of life, these young people are making a difference. Can you imagine an LGTB group in your High School.

    Wonderful story! Not quite the same, but I remember "Cher" at Ceasers Palace, in 1978, doing a show where three female-impersonators, did Cher, Diana Ross, and Bette Midler. I had my elbo on the stage, looking at the show. It wasn't until the end of show when Cher introduced her helpers. Wow, I was shocked! Being so close and so surprised. For us a special treat.

    You know I didn't pay much attention to the name of the group. There are a lot that have similar names but I think the name was Starlite but I do remember that they had Sandy, Utah on their Jackets. It was done in block letters and very readable. The group was introduced at the first and who pays that much attention unless you have a reason to be listening. My reason for listening came after their perfomance and on their jackets was their logo, but it was too stylized to read from the distance I was standing. Sorry that's the best I can do. If I knew more I would be finding a performance schedule and become a groupee.

    I'm soooo envious! I wish I'd been able to grow up like that boy, or any of the girls in those pics. What a wonderful life he must have.
