Miracle on 34th Street

On Friday some friends and I went out to dinner and then enjoyed the play, Miracle on 34th Street at the theater in Anoka.  The show was sold out.  The Kris Kringle character was excellent.  He exuded Santa Claus.  He had a confidence about him that let us know he knew we believed he was Santa Claus just a little bit too.  The girl who played Susan was also very talented.  Another little girl had a bit part.  She played a little Dutch orphan and was so traumatized by her journey to America that she could not speak until she sat on Santa's lap.  Then she started talking.  Santa talked to her in Dutch and together they sang a little song together.  That moment was very touching. Overall it was a great performance. My only complaint was the incredibly distracting and numerous set changes.
