Faculty Follies...

Faculty Follies is a show put on by Delano Public Schools staff every two years to benefit the performing arts groups at school.  There are skits, videos, dance numbers, songs, etc., that essentially lets students and families poke fun at the staff.  Admission is $5 and there's always a full house, the recent show was also the first event in the newly built Performing Arts Center at school...

This past Thursday was the 3rd show put on and I had a few parts...I was in a couple of videos...two large ensemble numbers including a look at our staff meetings and a look at the 'Greatest Showman,' but I was also in a skit.

Our skit was a remake of Wayne's World from Saturday Night Live.  Yep...we sang, bantered, I played a guitar and had fun for almost eight minutes....We made fun of what we called the top 5 misheard lyrics...

I was Wayne, he was Garth...our top five misheard lyrics were:

#5 - 'You're the Wobbly One' instead of 'You're the one that I want' from the movie Grease...

#4 - 'I want to rock and roll all night and PART of every day' instead of 'And party everyday' by KISS...

#3 - 'I like big butts and a Can of Limes' instead of 'I like big butts and I cannot lie' by Sir-Mix-A-Lot...

#2 - 'It doesn't make a difference if we're naked or not' instead of 'It doesn't make a difference if we make it or not' by Bon Jovi...

#1 - 'PENNSYLVANIA' at the beginning of the Circle of Life in the Lion King...

There were somewhere between 500-550 people at the show, it was a blast.  We both had a huge number of students stopping by on Friday to say that our skit was their favorite...that was cool...

For the 'Greatest Showman' skit, we were asked to get dressed up in any costume we had...so I used my recent Halloween costume and joined another co-worker in the Justice League...

Yep...it was a good night...
