Ophelia is 5 00:00:15,069 --> 00:00:17,236 one of the youngest performers in this 6 00:00:17,236 --> 00:00:19,347 year's Christmas show at the Soldiers 7 00:00:19,347 --> 00:00:21,347 Theater . And while most performers 8 00:00:21,347 --> 00:00:23,402 have friends and family come see the 9 00:00:23,402 --> 00:00:25,125 show , Ophelia is anticipating 10 00:00:25,125 --> 00:00:27,069 something slightly different . All 11 00:00:27,069 --> 00:00:30,309 right , let's warm up some of my class 12 00:00:30,379 --> 00:00:33,479 members and my teacher is gonna , are 13 00:00:33,490 --> 00:00:35,900 gonna come today when we found out that 14 00:00:36,180 --> 00:00:38,291 Ophelia was gonna be in the show . We 15 00:00:38,291 --> 00:00:40,124 wanted to make sure that all the 16 00:00:40,124 --> 00:00:42,347 Children had opportunity to come to the 17 00:00:42,347 --> 00:00:45,069 theater first . I told them about it 18 00:00:45,630 --> 00:00:48,979 and then my teacher asked , can we come ? 19 00:00:50,220 --> 00:00:53,520 And I said , yeah , everyone can come . 20 00:00:53,639 --> 00:00:55,880 They just have to buy a ticket . So I , 21 00:00:55,889 --> 00:00:58,250 um , asked for all the Children for 22 00:00:58,259 --> 00:01:00,481 their parents to drop them off and that 23 00:01:00,481 --> 00:01:02,315 I would , uh , bring them to the 24 00:01:02,315 --> 00:01:04,426 theater this way that we could have a 25 00:01:04,426 --> 00:01:07,639 chance to support our classmate . I'm 26 00:01:07,650 --> 00:01:11,620 gonna be nervous and also 27 00:01:11,629 --> 00:01:14,580 kind of scared because like it's my 28 00:01:14,589 --> 00:01:17,180 teacher and my classmates . If I mess 29 00:01:17,190 --> 00:01:21,099 up , I like , they're gonna see that 30 00:01:22,330 --> 00:01:23,660 places everyone 31 00:01:25,849 --> 00:01:28,199 places . Where's the fan ? At ?
