Hi Everyone Just had to share My 9 yr old daughter who has autistic traits. She is very literal and does not understand expression has just done her Preliminary LAMDA Drama Exam - she had to read a poem, with expression! and then answer questions about her favourite book, I hoped the examiner had lots of time!!!! So lots of practice and tears later off she went AND Guess What she passed WITH DISTINCTION!! Best of it is she'e seen a T Shirt with 'DRAMA QUEEN' on it and said she's now a queen so can she have it, Bless her she doesn't see it in the same light as us!! But ofcourse I'll buy It. OOOOOOOOOH I'm SOOOOOOOOOOOO PROUD!
