We're Doin' Fine, Oklahoma!

Within a few days of returning from our Lake District adventure we were off again. Like our Lakes trip, this was also a visit to familar and much loved territory, as it was a visit to the home of the Midlands Branch.

We were there to help a Midlands Branch minder celebrate a special birthday - her 65th. We all gathered outdoors for a lovely birthday tea with lots of scrumptious goodies, then it was off over the border to Leicestershire for a special treat. We all had tickets for a show at the rather wonderful Kilworth House Theatre which is a real architectural gem. It's an outdoor theatre for over 500, set in a beautiful wooded glade.


As you can see from our photo as well as having a visually stunning canopy over the stage, it is quite a luxurious outdoor theatre. The seats are padded, the audience are can stay dry if it rains, and special holders for smaller bears, of the George & Yorkie size, are also provided, as we demonstrate in our next picture.


If the stage set didn't give away what we went to see, the title of today's post should. Yes, we went to see Oklahoma which has a fine story with some even finer music. No sooner had the show started than we were singing along (good job we were on the back row). So that you can join in too and to put you in the mood for our next post which continues this tale, we're providing the words to our favourite song from the show .... so please join in and sing along with us (we're all singing already).



Lots of love George, Yorkie & all at Bears Unlimited xxx
