This year's production combined the unique and varied talents of over 85 students, staff, and community members. The entire ensemble would like to say a very special thank you to the following:
• Dr. P for his incredible talent, vision, passion, "self" pep talks, and ability to make everyone laugh. His generous heart gave every actor a character name, gave every understudy a performance, and gave the production team an unshakeable friendship.
• Mrs. McGirr for providing the organization and discipline our production desperately needed. There are many jobs to be done in a production, and she has taken most of them on herself. Without her, this production would not be. She has been the glue holding all of us together.
• Mrs. Richards for her ability to connect with our students on an emotional level, has given our show a pulse. (somebody get this woman a box of kleenex)
• The parents of the ensemble for their cooperation and understanding of the huge time commitment required by this production
• Carolyn Sharette, Bryan Durst, Kevin McVicar, Daniel Baker, Carole Hollinger, Cathie Adamson, and all other administrators and teachers that have supported this show no matter what obstacles have crossed our path
• Jori for taking command of our crew and props…and not going to California
• Hollie Hoffman for doing everything we asked of her – and doing it with so much heart and humor.
• Tim Evancich, Phillip Miner and the entire APA OPS Team for "clearing the way" to our success
• Tami for trusting us with her beautiful handmade costumes
• Ms. Horton and Ms. Garn for hand-making every single prayer shawl and hemming every dress
