News about Stella's dancers
Each year, Stella Cabeca's "Fairy Godmother", Sandi Mendelow (a.k.a. Chicken Soup Sandi) writes and directs a Christmas skit held during Stella's Hollywood Dance Class. Sandi's neighbor, Bob McDonald usually edits the script and designs a hat for Stella. Ophie Oquendo, who is a professional seamstress, put together the throne and Stella's cape. This year, Santa Claus sent Stella a special message, plus his favorite group, the "NEW Pink Sisters". Karen Duquette plays Hyacinth Bucket (dressed as a Christmas Tree) and reads Santa's letter to Stella and introduces the group. Of course Stella is aware that Sandi will put together a skit of some sort, but never really knows what to expect. Each year, Karen Duquette makes a DVD of the skit for all who participated. Below you will find some of the still shots taken during the event.
