Authentic story - I forgot to mark it.
We live in the UK. My son is a child actor and takes part in various plays, mostly in his drama group. He was recently preparing to a play with action in the 1920s. Few weeks before the dress rehearsals he comes back quite upset.
[Me]: What is wrong? Anything happened?
[Son]: Noooothing…They told us that we would have to wear braces. I am not too keen on them.
[Me-clearly confused]: Why? What is wrong with braces?
[Son]: I don't know, I don't think I would enjoy it…
I collected him after first dress rehearsal. He comes out laughing to tears.
[Me]: Tell me what's so funny.
[Son]: Braces! You know, I told you that we would have to have braces in this play.
[Me]: Yes…and what about them? What iÂs so funny about braces?
[Son]: I was sure they would make us wear teeth braces! Not the piece of old fashioned clothing! I made the teachers laugh to tears!
Well, I still don't know how he thought people wore teeth braces in the 1920s. I am sure if there were any, they were quite gruesome and not widely available. And how on Earth the staff would force kids to make a performance in them?
