Fandom High Holiday Pageant 2006, Friday afternoon, The Auditorium

[bugofjustice.livejournal.com]

Once everyone was seated, The Tick walked out onto the stage wearing a keen tux. He was ready to celebrate the holidays in style.

"Welcome, chums, to the 2006 Fandom High Holiday Pageant! This year, we're looking to make the pageant as broad as possible, covering several different holidays with several different methods of educating us all with fun! It's Funducation, not to be confused with Funded Education!"

"On the Holiday Tree of Funducation, information is the presents, and you are the children gathered around, hoping for the Hanukkah Wii of Information, or the X-Mas-Box of Knowledge! Our volunteers are the ornaments, making sure the Tree is shiny and festive! The participating classes are the lights that illuminate with organization and color! And I," Tick said, grinning broadly, "am a jolly man in a blue suit! I am not just your Master of Ceremonies tonight, I am also your Santa of Ceremonies! So please allow me to welcome you to this year's Tree of Funducation, the Holiday Pageant!"

[OOC: Please wait for and then follow the OCD. There is a thread for each performance, and then a Performance and Audience sub-thread for each. Please use the subthreads. Pretty self explanatory. Everyone should know what they're doing and which thread they're doing it in, hopefully. If, for some reason, we have threads that are not pinged into as of really late Friday night, I may get creative and randomly recruit people at the last minute if it doesn't Joss them just to make sure the pageant stands as being complete.

I'd like to say thank you in advance to all of my volunteers and I can't wait to see what you put together!]

John...spun out onto the stage, dreidel costume in full bloom. It was a little top heavy, ripped in some very odd places and ugly but it was glorious in it's badness.

"Hanukkah," said a smooth voice to the right of the stage, "also known as the Festival of Lights or Festival of Rededication, is an eight day Jewish holiday that starts on the 25th day of Kislev, which may be in December, late November, or, while very rare in occasion, early January."

V moved a little from the shadows, glanced at John, and kept going. "The festival is observed in Jewish homes by the kindling of lights on each of the festival's eight nights, one on the first night, two on the second night, and exponentially growing from there."

John just kept spinning and threw a thumbs up sign towards V.

While V was talking and John was spinning, Sam made his way out onto the stage in his menorah costume, which he had just barely prevented from involving actual open flames. It was quite a bit on the bulky side, but Sam was convincing himself that that would prevent anyone from recognizing him. It was a foolish hope, but that didn't keep him from clinging to it.
