Welcome to the Jaguar Players first production of our season! We are thrilled to be back for our 5th season with a full year of events and performances!

 

Tonight we present All I Really Need to Know I Learned from Being a Zombie. In today’s hectic, challenging world, we often don’t know where to turn for help. Our cast of zombies (and humans) are here to teach us all about life, death, and everything in between. They show us that brains aren’t everything…you are what you eat, and what doesn’t kill you makes you…more alive.

 

I am so proud of the hard work and dedication from our cast and crew of over 45 students. Theater is truly a collaborative art form and this production would not have happened without each and every Jaguar Player. 

 

I have to thank my extremely dedicated and talented Technical Directors, David Holdcraft, Sharon Smith, and Alyssa D’Andrea for putting their blood, sweat, and tears into the Jaguar Players. I am so fortunate to work with them and they all helped turn this program into the success it has become.

 

I also have to thank our wonderful Jaguar Players Booster Club for their help and support. The Boosters have allowed us to organize and grow our program and they are helping us with our trip to NYC this May. Special thanks to our ever-growing Board for their creativity, hard work, and endless dedication.

 

Also, I would like to thank my friends and family for their love and support. A special thank you to my wonderful husband, Ryan, and daughter, Charlotte, for being patient and understanding during my long work days and tech week schedule (and missing bath nights)!

 

Last, but not least, I want to thank you for coming to see our show. We can’t perform without an audience so thank you for being here and supporting Arts Education. And if you want to support the Arts even more, please buy refreshments, souvenirs, or make a direct donation at the box office. All proceeds go directly to the Booster Club.

 

Enjoy the show and we hope to see you back for our Spring Musical!
