Editorial A follow-up on Dance Marathon e, the editorial board, wanted to address the last editorial published Monday entitled, “What does it mean to do it ‘For The Kids’?” Since its publication, we’ve received a number of questions regarding some of the topics we addressed. In addition, we received answers to some of our own questions posed in the editorial. We did not reach Wout to UF Health Shands Hospital specifically for Monday’s editorial; however, we received an email Tuesday from Shands spokesperson Rossana Passaniti after we reached out to her earlier that day. In the email, she provided a state- ment from the CEO of Shands, Ed Jimenez, who responded to the board’s edito- rial, which will be published in full on our website. He addressed some of our previous questions, namely where the money from Dance Marathon goes and how the Miracle Children are helped. These Miracle Children are patients at the Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals. DMUF’s Miracle Children have profiles provided on DMUF’s website. These are the answers Jimenez provided: In the fiscal year of 2018, Jimenez said, “$9.8 million was raised for our local CMN [Children’s Miracle Network] thanks to Dance Marathons, local partners and corporate sponsors and events.” Of that amount, $3.9 million went to the UF College of Medicine department of pediatrics for pediatric research proj- ects focused on neonates, children and young adults. Patient care and educa- tion funding received about $846,000 for recurring programmatic support. This money also helped purchase more compression garments for the regional burn center, pediatric support groups and about $3.2 million funded “capital items like renovations to our pediatric infusion center.” More information was pro- vided including a link to some efforts that the CMN donations fund. We understand this is a very sensitive topic, and many people have spent hundreds of hours working on it. We appreciate your feedback and your pas- sion. We also would like to offer an apology to anyone who felt our questions Column were misplaced. We by no means meant to discredit the efforts and accomplish- ments made by the Children’s Miracle Network, Shands or Dance Marathon; we merely wished to ask for more transparency on where the more than $3 million Here’s the real tea on Flat Tummy Tea raised goes locally.

The same cannot be said for the evil, vindictive Ur- sula, portrayed by Susan Christophy. Christophy was ex- tremely consistent with her presence and commitment to the actor’s quartet: voice, body, emotion and intellect. Her moments were clear, her thought process was there and her vocal range was extensive. She knocked the oth- er iconic solo “Poor Unfortunate Souls” out of the park. Rikki Baynard and Brittany Kelly portrayed Ursula’s personal assistants Flotsam and Jetsam respectively with similar zest as Christophy. Their fl uid body movements were informed and believable, and they had a nice vocal variety. They transformed themselves into evil eels in a way that suspended disbelief and brought the audience further into their world. The technical aspects of the show were impressive given that community theaters typically have to impro- vise more than others to create a believable product that suspends the audience’s disbelief. Christophy, in her second role as scenic designer, in- telligently brought together a colorful set and projections that added texture and life to the stage. One technical aspect of the show that was particularly alluring was that the actors would fl y across the stage on cables to make believe they were fl ying or swimming to the surface of the ocean. This was one of the few mo- ments in the show when actors fully engaged their bodies to communicate an idea. Overall, the ensemble was at its strongest in the num- ber “Under the Sea.” The actors seemed to have the most fun and make bold choices with the lyrics and choreog- raphy.
