“We do on stage things that are supposed to happen off. Which is a kind of integrity, if you look on every exit as being an entrance somewhere else.” ― Tom Stoppard, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead
This quote truly embodies the spirit of theatre. We so often do things on stage that are realistic and show what real life is like. What better to do this with than a play about hopeful actors auditioning for a school musical?
From the moment we read this play, we knew this play was special. Providing the chance to put on a play within a play is something that is so fun for young actors and for their directors. Don Zolidis' words and wit were able to make this play something that we knew everyone would enjoy. The turn-out for auditions was shocking. We have never had so many students audition for a play, and we were blessed with the chance to work with so many of them!
Ms. Hague would like to give a special shout out to Ms. Natale! Thank you for jumping in with both feet and giving your love, dedication, and passion to this program. I am so lucky to have such a wonderful co-director and friend like you! We are truly kindered spirits and I'm glad that this program has allowed us to come together.
To our wonderful student director, Cianna, thank you for being you! You are the kindest, most hard-working, most wonderful person ever. We can't wait to see where your future takes you!
To our wondeful audience members: Thank you for supporting our production and our growing drama department. Over the past few years, we have strived to have high-energy, high-quality performances, and thanks to the help of active parents, staff, and students, we have been able to achieve this! We hope you will join us on May 4th at 7pm and May 5th at 2pm for our Spring Musical, Seussical, Jr.
Our cast members have worked for almost three months to bring the magic of theatre to you today. They have worked tirelessly and spent so much time rehearsing. We hope you enjoy what they have been able to create!
