ELLIOTT COCHRAN
as June
Since her 8th grade debut in the theater community as a “child-wrangler” for Merrily We Roll Along, Elliott has cherished every moment of Durham Academy theater. She has been privileged enough to be a part of Merrily We Roll Along, The Addams Family, and in the cast of Twelfth Night, The Wolves, and Chicago: Teen Edition. Elliott has learned, been embarrassed, laughed, cried, and most of all, she has enjoyed every moment. Elliott has been so thankful to be a part of Chicago during her senior year and hopes that she can carry on her love of theater wherever she may end up next. She would like to give the biggest thanks to Mr. Bohanek, Mr. Meyer, Mrs. McDonald, Mr. Edghill, Mike Beard, Mom, Dad, Franny, Ellen, and anyone else who has supported her through her DA theater career. Most of all, she would like to thank the friends she made for the memories and experiences that she will cherish for many years to come. And remember… “he had it comin’!”

RINAL DAHHAN
Costume/Wardrobe Crew
This is Rinal’s first time working on a show, and she has absolutely loved it! In her past two years at Durham Academy she has relegated herself to an avid enjoyer of DA theatre, but being backstage has been an entirely new experience that she has loved. While it did take her a few days to find her footing in the costume crew, she has had the time of her life with Sarah, Maya, Claire and Melanie. She’d like to especially thank Melanie for her endless patience and hugs, and Sarah and Maya for putting up with her for so long. Thank you DA Theatre!

ASH GRANDA-BONDURANT
Property Manager
Ash is thrilled to have been a part of bringing this incredible production to life. He is honored to have been part of the theater program for the last four years and has greatly enjoyed his role in this year’s production of Chicago as an assistant stage manager. He wants to thank Mr. Edghill and Mr. Bohanek for being such incredible mentors and their constant leadership. From his first year to now, the theater program has been essential to his high school experience, and he is glad to have found such a wonderful community full of wickedly talented people. He wishes all the best to everyone on the production team, crew, and cast who made this a fabulous show. Thank you for being the reason he keeps coming back. He would also like to thank his mom for her encouragement and support throughout his journey over the last four years. Finally, Ash wants to shout out his friends from Apex who are out in the audience! Cheers to an extraordinary show!
