Willy Wonkas Umpa Lumpa

Jason was part of a theater class to be in a play - Willy Wonka. As part of the youngest age group he was an umpa lumpa. The class was fun and prepared them to be in the play. Then the two weeks of the play there were 9 performances, most of them late, so that was tiring. But he never complained and he loved being an umpa lumpa and getting his hair done green. It was a good experience.



Practice...putting it all together.

Backstage:



The juniors came on stage 5 times in 3 different costumes. They were candy kids, then umpa lumpas and squirrels. This kept them busy and got them pretty tired out.



After the show was a bit of a challenge, Jason was so tired. It was hard to get good pictures with people that came to watch. You had to turn him upside down!
