Show B6 The Emery County Review, Tuesday, October 21, 2008 Students Treat Audience to ‘A Night on Broadway’ Continued from Page B1. my answer was ‘yes!’ Musical theater was developed in the USA and they need to be acquainted with their heritage,” Baantjer said. “Last year we finally decided this would be the year to do it, and I went through all of the music we have in the files, picked the songs I loved the most that would also work for our students, and ordered the ones we needed. We had already asked Diane Carter, who blew new life into our drama programs this year, if she would have her kids do snippets from the musicals. Considering the drama class is only half a year and doesn’t start until second semester, she did an incredible job with those kids.” Throughout the evening the students’ enthusiasm for the music and the drama shined through in their performances and swept away the audience as they responded to each number with thunderous applause, and occasionally, appreciative laughter, especially when Baantjer and Lofthouse left the stage and returned dressed as the very definition of “flower children.” Even their students had a difficult time maintaining their composure as Baantjer enthusiastically slipped into his role. It is that enthusiasm for the music that keeps Baantjer, and his students, Crossword From Page B3. motivated. If you do not absolutely love the thing you’re doing, you should not be doing it. Yes, we are this enthusiastic about the music we are learning, every day, with each rehearsal. We sing the music we love, whatever it is, and each day we learn new things and do specific things better. The onion has many layers,” he said. While sometimes timid, Baantjer and Carter seem to have a way of bringing the talent out in their young students and Baantjer said he is impressed with their talent. “Talent is 90 percent hard, back breaking work and only 10 percent innate ability. These kids are the very best!” he said. The Emery County Animal Shelter has playful kittens looking for a place to call home.

ADOPT A PET When it comes to enthusiasm, the students would be hard pressed to match the level of Baantjer, who makes no effort to hide his love for what he is doing. “I love my music. I absolutely love these kids, and there’s nothing better than making music together. George Bernard Shaw put it best: ‘This is the true joy in life, the being used for a purpose recognized by yourself as a mighty one; the being thoroughly worn out before you are thrown on the scrap heap; the being a force of Nature instead of a feverish selfish little clod of ailments and grievances complaining that the world will not devote itself to making you happy,’” he said. •Hats • Shirts • Uniforms • Sweats •Jackets 15 North State Ferron, UT 435-384-3333 370 East Main, Green River Hot Food • Fuel • Lodging • Weekend Barbecues www.shadyacresrv.com Gasoline & Diesel Fuel 435-564-8295 Gift Shop 98 E.
