The Daughters: Adopted by Renée Elise Goldsberry and Daveed Diggs

Welcome to the Fandy Store (FBLA Part Six)

July 7
After a full day of Competitions and workshops, it was time to go out to dinner and then see Heathers, staring the Alexis Leder. Or as Aunt Lexi calls her, Alexis Leger. Everyone in the Hamilton cast, as well as the Hamilton fandom, knows who Alexis is. Even my mom has bought off of her before and she wanted some more so I was going to buy some of her art for both my mom and me. Also, Alexandrea wanted a piece too. She has even posted on her story that if we come see her in Heathers, she will give away some of her art if we would like. Besides the art aspect, I was excited to be seeing Alexis preform. From seeing her videos on Instagram and YouTube, I knew she was an amazing performer, so I was excited. She didn't know that we were coming so we were going to surprise her after the show. At dinner, Taylor, Alexandrea, and I talk about how much we love Heathers and our favorite songs. Then we go and watch the show. Everyone is amazing, including Alexis and you can't really tell it's a high school production.
Later
We wait by the stage door, where Alexis has said before that she would take people backstage if they wanted to go backstage. We meet a few of the other cast members, and then she comes out. "Alexis?" I ask, getting her attention. "Hey." She says, coming over to us. "Hi I'm Nicole Goldsberry." I say. Her hand flies over her mouth. "Oh my god." She says. "And I'm Alexandrea Diggs." Alexandrea says, from over my shoulder. "You guys came to see me in Heathers?" Alexis asks. We nod. "We knew we were going to be in town for a competition and our teacher bought us tickets." I say. Alexis hugs me. "Thank you." She says. "Of course, now about going backstage..." "Come on in." Alexis says, smiling. She shows us around and then finds some of her cast mates who are overjoyed to see us and then we go back to Alexis's dressing room. "So, my mom wanted to know if she could get some art. And Alexandrea and I wanted to get a piece too." I say. "I was actually just working on a piece of you and Alexandrea. I finished it." Alexis says. "Ooh. I would like to buy that." Alexandrea says. Alexis smiles, taking out a pad of paper and writing down what we want, even Taylor gets something from Alexis. "Okay, so If you guys can come back here in an hour or so, I'll be able to get your commissions here." Alexis says. "Okay. Thanks Alexis." I say. "No problem. Oh, and Nicole can I get a picture with you before you guys leave?" Alexis replies. "I was just about to ask you that." We take a picture and leave. Then we come back later and Alexis gets us our commissions. "There you girls go. Thank you guys so much." Alexis says. We hug and then leave. When we get back to the hotel, I text Renée.
Me: Guess what I got?
Madre: Oh my gosh that is so beautiful. How was Heathers?
Me: Amazing.
Madre: That's great. How is everything? Your father and I miss you so much. Daveed and Emmy are throwing a watch party for you guys tomorrow night.
Me: Okay.
Madre: Well, I have to go. Goodnight Nicole
Me: Goodnight Madre
With that, we watch the Mean Girls movie and go to sleep.
