In the menu change the 'Sensitivity Steps' to #2, AS EV Steps
The default will give you only the whole ISO step.

I use the DA* 50-135 for high school plays and it works very well. You really need the fastest lens you can afford. Even if you push up the ISO the larger maximum aperture will give your camera more light to AF.
Before I got the DA* I used the M 50 f/1/7 and Takumar 135 f/2.5 and they did very well. I did have a split image focus screen so I could nail the focus with more accuracy.
I also was the official photographer at the dress rehearsals which meant I could roam around and even stand on the stage. Then also shoot during the performance to get what I missed during rehearsal.

As for 'is this a usable image', I would say yes it is. Not as a gallery size print but you did capture a moment. It is a little soft. Looks like you may have tried tracking the moving family and where just a little off from keeping them sharp.
