"It really helps to fill out the sound," says David. Taylor's acting is improving every day, and Cameron is even doing some one-on-one work with her in the afternoons. As I predicted, Cameron and Elliot adore her -- honestly, I get a little jealous sometimes the way they can fawn over her, but since I adore her, too, it's not too bad. What I didn't suspect was how well she would get along with Suzanne. At rehearsals, when Taylor is not on stage, she's usually in the booth helping Suzanne, who is determined to resurrect the ancient light board. Every now and then I hear shrieks of laughter coming from up there and one of the two of them will pop her head out the window and say "Sorry!" God only knows what they find so amusing. I figured Taylor would need all her down time at rehearsal to work on her lines, but she seems to be able to memorize without even trying. Turns out she's like an academic genius or something. She's already been accepted to Brown, which surprises me, because it seems kind of left-wing for a youth group kid, but then Taylor is good at surprising me and shattering my preconceived notions about things.
