A Special Thanks
Thank you to Leo Zeferino and Olga Ramos, our building custodians, for opening and closing the stage partition at my request for several months.
Thank you to the 5th and 6th grade teachers for allowing us to rehearse any spare moment available.
Thank you school administration for continuing this school tradition and giving me the support in making this production possible.
Thank you Lisa Eaton, Lesley Forde, Carol Pappas - My go-to team for all things musical! You help make the razzle-dazzle on the stage.
Thank you Matt Colsia for building the rotating desk for our set, and thank you Paula Giraldez and family for making the taxis used in “N.Y.C.”
Thank you Lucy Danoff for helping backstage with hair and makeup.
Thank you parent helpers for dedicating your time to work backstage, with sets and costumes, and snacks, and helping me fill in the gaps for our students’ experience performing.
Thank you to the Longfellow and McLean High School theater departments for letting us borrow props and student technicians.
Thank you to the student performers who care as deeply as I do about the success of our production and have dedicated months of before school practices to make this magical moment.
