Can a cheese and a rat be friends? Makayla's 4th grade choir performed the musical "The Cheese Stands Alone" asking that exact question. Makayla played Mr. Rat who because of pressure from her peers refuses to be friends with her long time friend, Cheesy, but by the end of the musical stands up for what she believes in and apologizes to Cheesy so they can remain friends once again.
Makayla (Mr. Rat) and her good friend, Madeleine (Cheesy's cousin, Gouda Cheese)
Makayla was quite the little actress. She had to memorize 8 lines and played the part of a cheese loving (or was that hating?) rat perfectly. I would have been too shy to get up in front of everyone at her age, but she was really brave. Makayla said she was a little nervous, but once she got on stage, she didn't forget any of her lines and really hammed it up. She got a big laugh at the end of the musical when she apologized to Cheesy and admitted she was "really lactose intolerant!"
A proud Makayla waves at the end of the play.
