You HAVE to see this kid!

Really. You just DO. This is one of my son's 2 best friends (the other being tiny, delicate, funny redheaded, Desi, whom I want to adopt. She was also in the play, but not pictured here :-), Jon Quesenberry, performing in their school's rendition of the play, "Guys and Dolls" last year, when they were all Juniors. Remember Jon's name. I fully expect to see him on Broadway in the next 10 years. I've already got him to autograph (along with sweet, funny Desi) all their playbills. Gonna be worth a mint on Ebay someday.... LOL!!

Just a side note--someone snuck their camera in to this performance, so the video quality isn't the best, but it doesn't dampen Jon's acting ability or enthusiasm one bit.

Another note--this performance (not from the same night we went and saw it) was followed by a solid 5 minute standing ovation.

Hope you enjoy our curly mop-headed, talented, ambitious, focused and FUNNY friend, Jon. I expect you will. The song should be familiar, too.

LOL! Sure is! We actually own the "official" version of the whole play, filmed on a different night from that performance. Jon always performs well, but he was really over the top with this video! I'm gonna miss that boy when he and my son and all graduate this next summer and go on to school in NYC.... What a fun 6 years we've had, knowing him while he's been my son's best friend :-).

What a talented young man. I agree with you that we will be seeing more of him. I'm sure he could get a job on Broadway right now.
