It went pretty well! G had his moments. Before changing into his costume, he stood around hitting himself in the head with the costume in a grocery bag over and over again.
During the play, there were two issues. The poster board shield was all over the place- above his head, over his face, curled around his hands... Everywhere. It was cute, though. Not too weird, just cute. I did end up "working" by sitting next to a boy with autism. To assist with good behavior, I had a handful of gummy bears that I was passing off to him. G saw me and wanted some. When I said no, he wanted to argue and pout. During the play. (We talked about this later; Mommy was working, so she couldn't share the gummy bears.)
As we were leaving, there were a lot of sticks and rocks banging against trees, but that's boy stuff, right? I mean, he wouldn't listen and come, but the sticks and rocks really are more interesting that us. And he was really far away from the other kids.
Overall, it was a success. Even more so because it wasn't my kid started to undress during the play. Its all a matter of perspective.
