One of the most exciting and uplifting aspects of Theatre comes from its inherently collaborative nature. Beyond the cast and crew in the production, there are several others who have contributed significantly to the production, designing, painting, building the sets, props, and costumes.
Thank you to my Theatre Arts Classes who contributed so many aspects of this production: helping with painting the set and creating several of the props.

Thank you to Shannon Pillera and Kristen Heineman for again taking the best headshots we’ve ever had. The playbill continues to look professional.
Thank you to all the parents who have been critical to the success of ad sales, food for “heck” week, concessions, ticket sales,and marketing. Most importantly, thank you to all the parents who have shared their children with me almost every night for rehearsal and the production.
Last year Loudoun County made it possible to have paid stipends for an Assistant Director and Technical Director. The consequence of this action continues to impact the level of complexity we can pursue in our productions. Without Dana Maier’s professional technical knowledge and willingness to teach eager techies, the set and lights before you would have never been so spectacular. While Mary Lease has volunteered for the past 5 years, this year she has continued to be paid. Without her expertise teaching all the costume designers, you would not see in this program, the multiple costume pieces, double dresses, and costume props. Most importantly, she is my foundation who keeps me from losing sight of the pragmatic realities of the stage and the humans on and behind the stage.
Finally, thank you to the Dominion High School administrative staff:
Dr. John Brewer, Principal
Dr. Jason Allison, Assistant Principal
