After trying out for her high school's one-act plays right before Spring Break, Lia found out that she had been cast in the play titled, "It's Not You, It's Me." Of the four plays, this was the one-act that Lia wanted to be cast in, so she was super excited. For the next five weeks, Lia rehearsed daily after school while also juggling 42nd Street rehearsals at NWTL three days a week. I went to her first show alone on Friday night to watch all four one-acts, and then Ron and the kids joined me tonight to see the second show. Lia's show was by the far the most entertaining and funniest to watch. It centered around multiple couples breaking up with one of the people in each couple saying, "It's not you, it's me." Lia ended her second scene by getting in such a bad fight with her partner while eating dinner at a restaurant, that they both threw water on each other at the end. It sure surprised the audience and was a dramatic way to end their break up scene.
