<p>For those of you in the greater Ann Arbor area, or even for those of you who are feeling particularly adventurous come December 8-11, the University of Michigan Gilbert and Sullivan Society, a strongly-funded and oldest college Gilbert and Sullivan troupe in the country, will be performing The Sorcerer, the first collaboration between G&S ever. Frecklybeckly will be performing the principal female role, or the ingenue. UM music is GREAT! UM EVERYTHING is great! </p>

<p>Frecklybeckly–how wonderful to hear you being so happy at UM!!! I loved it there, and am so glad you’re doing well, and have achieved such an incredible accomplishment so quickly. GO BLUE!</p>
<p>Wow! So glad you gave an update. It is wonderful to hear that you love your school. It wasn’t a “consolation” school for you, it is turning into a TERRIFIC place for you!!! I’m so happy for you that you love it and found such a great place. But on TOP of all that…you got the lead in this musical! Wow!!! You found your place. And they found you and recognized your talent. Good for you. Enjoy your shining moment; you earned it.

<p>Wow, congrats FrecklyBeckly!! I wish I could be there…but break a leg!! Wow…</p>
<p>Way to go Becky! GO BLUE!</p>
<p>Some of us surrogate moms were talking about you yesterday, hoping you were happy and things were going well. It must have been ESP, because you are already the local star. Congratulations. Glad you are keeping your stage legs under you and your eye on the stars. Break a leg!</p>
<p>Like others, I too have wondered how you were faring…I even searched the threads to see if you had posted lately…what a tremendous welcome you have received at UM…principal female role! Not surprising after listening to your tracks last fall…but, definitely the kind of news I enjoy these days…I love to hear about happy kids who are taking advantage of their surroundings and living strong. Go Becky!!</p>
<p>I too was just wondering how you were doing. Go Becky indeed.</p>
<p>I wish I were close enough to Ann Arbor to attend (I really enjoy G and S), but I am so pleased to hear that you’ve got the part and that things are going well. That’s wonderful news.</p>
<p>Another cc mom who was thinking of you. The lead! First year! Way to go, freckly~.</p>
<p>You know who else is great?
Freckly Becky!
Woot! Woot!</p>
<p>Thank you for sharing. Congratulations</p>
<p>We’ll all be there in cyberspirit! Way to Go!</p>
<p>Thanks. How are all your Ss and Ds enjoying themselves? How’s your daughter liking Tisch, soozieinvt? And how are andi&co?</p>
<p>Way to go, Becky!!!</p>
<p>How’s your brother doing?</p>
<p>Becky, this thread is all yours and so I don’t want to tell about my daughter on it. Suffice to say for now that she LOVES Tisch and everything so far and is having a great time in New York. I will try to post about her experiences so far soon, but on another thread, ok? </p>
<p>Right now, I am happy for you. And my D at Tisch really liked the program at UMich too but did not get into it but I can picture you at UM now because we went twice and so I know it is a great place. Enjoy and break a leg!
