Chatterbox: Pudding's Place
The Dramatics: Theater Tour and Workshop!!!!!

You are sitting at your desk, trying to figure out the algebra worksheet your teacher gave you. Maybe you shouldn’t have asked for extra homework, you think, staring at the pile of history packets and writing assignments that threaten to fall off of your desk. Oh well, you sigh, picking up your pencil again, and turning your attention back to your homework. Hmmm, what’s 7c(-4) + 97? You stare fiercely at the paper, twirling your pencil, using the sheer force of your brain power to make the answer to magically pop onto the the paper, when a creamy envelope drops onto your desk in a shower of rainbow sparkles.
Oooh! Your homework is gone (temporarily, at least), and you pick up the envelope. Immediately, you notice that there is no address on the front. Turning it over, you find a wax seal (like the kind in Harry Potter) embossed with a capital “D”. You slide your thumb under the envelope’s flap, and break the seal to reveal even more rainbow glitter inside of the envelope. You pour it out, puzzled, and watch as the glitter magically transfigures into a letter. You’re even more surprised when it begins to speak:
“Ahem. Dear Chatterboxer, you have been invited to an exclusive theater tour and workshop hosted by The Dramatics theater. Enjoy acting classes, costume designing courses, and choreography workshops based on a selection of noteworthy musicals, including Hamilton! You may bring two guests to accompany you during your stay at the 5-star Theater Tale Hotel. Pack your bags quickly, because space is limited to 12 CBers and their guests. Simply step outside to be teleported to your destination!
Enjoy your stay,
The Stage Manager
The Dramatics: Theater Tours and Workshops
Wow,you think. You love musical theater, and an excuse to skip school would be great. . . Even though you love school, you don’t really love the homework. Then the letter begins to speak again:
“Oh, dear me, I’d almost forgotten the terms and conditions!
1. You may not bring tortillas of any kind, as the Stage Manager happens to have an incredibly abnormal allergy to tortillas.
2. The Dramatics: Theater Tours and Workshops are not responsible for any injuries, abductions, highway robberies, or murders of any sort.
3. Please contact the Stage Manager with any queries regarding the selection of musicals. You may suggest one, and the Stage Manager will consider it depending on the amount of chocolate and books you bring her.
4. There will be no wi-fi signal at the theater, so there is no need to bring any electronic devices. There will be iPod-like devices for guests to listen to Hamilton all day.
5. Walls are sound-proof for any guests who would NOT like to hear Hamilton all day.
6. In the (unlikely) event of an emergency, the theater has communication devices to reach the outside world.

Day 2, Part 4~
After their banquet lunch, the CBers returned to the theater to meet Melissa and Marissa for the afternoon activity, since their acting workshops had been cancelled. The twins sat on the moon ( a prop from the theater’s production of Peter Pan, if you were wondering) and gazed down at the assembled CBers.
“Welcome!” exclaimed Melissa— or was it Marissa?
“You have the honor of being the first ever guests to participate in our Scavenger Hunt of Death!”
“The grand prize is eternal glory. . . and if you don’t find everything. . . we’re afraid that you must pay the price.”
Owlgirl gulped and the Artist looked around nervously.
“The first item you must find are the lists. Every group has their names on the list, and everyone has different items to find. The penalty for taking another’s item will be grave. . .”
“You have the rest of the day to complete the hunt. Have fun!” chirped Marissa.
“The groups are posted in the back of the theater!” Melissa added.
The CBers stampeded up the aisles and craned to see their names on the list.
Pairings:
The Artist and Fluffy
Echosong and Autumn Leaves
Owlgirl and Stan
Windswift and Dolphin
Shadowcat and Milli
Inktail and Ellak
Hotairballoon and Chrissie
The Riddler and Surprise
Over the Rainbow and Charles
Icy and Waffle
Kestrel and Spirit Rain
Kate-the-Great and Cass
Tulip and Toto
And at the bottom of the list was a riddle:
You’ll find me where the light meets the ear.

Sorry ‘bout the quick post, I promise I’ll add more later. Tell me if I forgot you on the list, and first group to figure out the riddle will earn a special hint. (P.S. The answer to the riddle is theater related. . .)
