Back to Stories Have you ever been in a show when something went wrong? What happened? How did you deal with it?
In a talent show for my school, I was so excited about doing one song that I forgot to do all the rest of my songs!

-Adora, age 6

 
Once I was going to do this dance for this party with my sister and her two friends. we practiced for it like 12 times.I had put my sister in the front and her two friends on the sides. But what was that for? When we started the show they didnt remember any of the moves. So I lost my patience, I started to yell at my sister because she was the one who didnt know what to do. So my dad took me in the room and told me why did I yell at her.That day was terrible.

Once me and my friends did a play and one of my friends forgot all his lines I was the director so I had to stand by him the whole time telling him what to say.But at the end it all turned out fine.
