Winter Solstice Birthday Follies

Victoria Winky is feeling brave because she is thinking that in the beginning it is all black then someone (maybe Monty Swell) comes on stage singing about all the Letter People while the Letter People stand in the background but she can’t see them because she is lit up and is the one singing. She will sing about each Letter Person and their personalities in the same song while she walks towards that specific Letter Person (but a light doesn’t shine on the person). She is thinking that they stood in 4 different places: Mister M, Mister T, Mister F, Mister H, Mister N, and Miss A on the far left of the stage (pretty hard to see them); Mister B, Mister Z, Mister P, Mister S, Mister V, and Miss E on the right; Mister L, Mister D, Mister G, Mister C, Miss I, Miss O, and Mister K in the middle (standing close to Mister B, Mister Z, Mister P, Mister S, Mister V, and Miss E); and there is a balcony type thing (kind of like the thing the Mayor was standing on in Spongebob on Broadway) and on the balcony there’s Mister W, Mister Y, Mister R, Mister J, Miss U, Mister X, and Mister Q (the balcony is also behind Mister L, Mister D, Mister G, Mister C, Miss I, Miss O, and Mister K). And once she stops singing and the song ends, the stage gets lit up so she can see the Letter People. And in the end all the Letter People line up in a horizontal and hold hands (order: M, T, F, H, N, A, B, Z, P, S, V, E, L, D, G, C, I, O, K, W, Y, R, J, U, X, Q) and each one comes up to the stage to take their own type of bow (order: Q, X, U, J, R, Y, W, K, O, I, C, G, D, L, E, V, S, P, Z, B, A, N, H, F, T, M) and then they all run towards the front of the stage to take a bow and sing one last grand finale song.
