Elijah Cooke
(Caldwell B. Cladwell) is a senior from Belvidere who has been performing in theatrical arts since he was able to. At Belvidere, he has been in shows such as Godspell, You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown, and Honk!, Jr.. He has also performed in musicals at the Country Gate Playhouse such as Newsies, A Christmas Story, and Peter Pan. This will be Elijah's last show at BHS, and although he's sad to see it go, he's happy to have made so many memories. He would like to thank his family for always supporting him, and his friends for always having his back. In his free time he likes to rant about video games to people who have no idea what he's talking about, and eat lots of food. Elijah is ready for this show to be an amazing sendoff for all the seniors, and he would like to thank the cast for always being amazing and giving it their all. He hopes one day that his theater experience will finally land him in a movie with Danny DeVito.
