Ben and the Twenty-Third of April

Carla: Ben, are you excited about the show on April the twenty-third? Ben: A bit nervous, actually. We've practised the dance every day this week, but I keep forgetting the last part. Carla: You'll be fine. When do I need to be there? Ben: The show starts at ten, but parents have to be in their seats by half past nine. Can Dad come too? Carla: He's working in the morning, but he'll try to come for the end. Ben: OK. And I need a costume, a white shirt and red trousers. I've got the shirt, but my red trousers are too small. Carla: We can borrow your cousin's. I'll ask Aunt Selin tonight. If they don't fit, we'll buy new ones at the weekend. Ben: Thanks, Mum. Can we take photos? My teacher said we're allowed after the show, but not during it. Carla: Of course. Then let's have lunch at that restaurant by the sea.
