BEAM Day! (not)

Aren't you excited? Aren't you excited about Be Excited About Math Day? I am not. Let me tell you why. Be Excited About Math Day is being held in the Library.
If this were a school-wide event for students, I would Be Excited. Really, I love math! But this is a stupid district-implemented PR event for parents who are NOT Excited About Math.
We're going to show un-Excited parents how Exciting Math can Be! We're going to stage (oh, yes, I said stage) a Math lesson in the library so parents can watch. We're going to prepare a class to Be Excited about having parents watch them in the library learning Math.
Meanwhile, my classes and I are banished to the classrooms for the day. I am NOT Excited.
