These Spindrift Pages

Here's the short and sweet skinny about the people, places and happenings on the south end of Whidbey Island.

‘Thoroughly Modern Millie’ is a must see

Hello Drifters,

If you want to brighten up your weekend then run down to the South Whidbey High School auditorium with the whole family and take in “Thoroughly Modern Millie.” You won’t be disappointed. This show has everything from the funny, doesn’t-take-itself-too-seriously-script to the bright period costumes, well-sung playful songs, showstopper tap-along choreography and the cast of 40 teenagers who deliver the goods. This show deserves to be seen and, in this age of bad flus, bad wars and bad money, “Thoroughly Modern Millie” is one show that reminds you that — in a world where we still get to see a bunch of people up onstage having the time of their lives dancing and singing — it ain’t all that bad. Go see this one.
