Just straight up stealing this description and a few pictures from Abby's Instagram:

Natasha, Pierre and the Great Comet of 1812

Benji had another matching band competition on Saturday (Powhatan), so Kevin and I took the opportunity to go to Harrisonburg to see a play. Natasha, Pierre and the Great Comet of 1812 was the Tony Winner for Best Musical in 2017, but we found the Forbes Center was really too small to stage a production of it.
