Kelton Bendixen
Kelton has also appeared in The Music Man, The Girl with the Golden Locks, and The Sound of Music. Next fall, he'll be at the South Dakota School of Mines and Technology majoring in Biomedical Engineering. Originally, he decided to participate in the theatre program for "something to do outside of just school. Now it's for the sense of family." His favorite memories are "any show night, just knowing that people enjoyed the show."

Alex Clark
This is Alex's first appearance on stage. After completing Army National Guard basic training in Ft. Benning, he intends to attend DMACC. "I tried doing the musical my sophomore year, and it just wasn't my thing, but I figured that it's my senior year so I might as well just go for it! I enjoyed the time when Truman came into a scene yelling gibberish, and Kylee froze up because not only did she not know what he said but neither did anyone else."

Truman Clark
Mr. Clark's credit's include Virgil's Family Reunion, The Music Man, The Girl with the Golden Locks, and The Sound of Music. He plans to major in Biology and Theology at Dordt University. "As a child, I always saw what fun it could be to be on stage and perform. Once I became a part of it, I realized how much it resembled a family. We, as a cast, became so close over the course of every show.Josie Wulf and I were goofing off behind stage, and I sneezed really loud. The funny part was that before the sneeze, I felt that it coming on and said, "Uh oh" in premonition. Josie had no idea what was going on up until the thunderclap of a sneeze. Beside that specific memory, some of the best memories came from just being on stage and having fun. Through all of my years on stage, the ones that I've acted, sang, laughed, and cried with have become some of my closest friends. The memories we made will last a lifetime!"
