So the festival was cancelled, but we were determined to spread some Halloween cheer (and sugar) nonetheless. The obvious solution was guerilla theater at the playground.
The kiddos and parents taking advantage of briefly clear skies responded very enthusiastically to our motley bunch yelling "Free cupcakes! Free theater!"
So the story of the Devil's Sooty Brother was finally shared with the world.
And some kind children on a sugar high even helped us dispose of our leftover silly string by emptying the can on Elizabeth.
