Sophie's Blog: I watched the movie Miracle on 34th street today. The girl who played Susan was Natalie Wood. Most of the lines in the movie were the same as in our script. The guy who played Santa Claus was really good. I wanted to watch the movie because I need to know how Susan would act. I got my script back last rehearsal. I have to practice my lines a lot!!!!!!! On Monday we're going to run through with costume, I'm very excited!
