Happy birthday, Bridget!

Recently, we were happy to host a 10th birthday party for Bridget, one of our summer workshop intensive campers who spent a week with us in July doing High School Musical and a week in August doing Beauty and the Beast. 

Having a celebration at Random Farms is a unique birthday party experience. We offer three different packages, depending the birthday boy or girl's age. Since Bridget was turning 10, she and her eleven of her friends got to spend two hours in our Elmsford studio with director Alexis Grausz and assistant director Alice Smyth.

The girls had party food, and of course, we all sang "Happy Birthday" before Bridget blew out her candles. However, she also got to star as Dorothy in a musical number from the Wizard of Oz with all her friends.

In less than an hour, the girls learned lines, choreography and music (even solos!) which they performed in costume for their parents and siblings at the end of the party. "My favorite part was doing the performance at the end," Bridget said. "Since I already did "High School Musical" and "Beauty and the Beast," I wanted to do something different, so I picked "The Wizard of Oz.'"

Bridget played Dorothy for the musical number, "Ding Dong, the Witch is Dead." The birthday girl (or boy) gets to be in full costume, and Bridget rocked it down to her sparkly pink Converse sneakers for her own take on the ruby slippers. "I was glad to be the lead role, because in the other plays, I was part of a group," she said.

"I love the staff here," her mother Kerry said. "Having the party here was convenient, but I also knew it would be a high quality birthday party. Everyone had a good time. I tell everyone about the programs at Random Farms. Bridget knew no one when she first came here, and she just felt so good about herself." 

And that makes us feel good! We look forward to having Bridget on stage with us again in March for the Workshop production of "Tom Sawyer."
