It never fails that year after year I am amazed by the talent that is on this stage. The quality of the cast, stage crew and staff are outstanding. A truly successful production however, involves more than what is presented on stage. It should not only be an artistic learning experience, but a personal one as well. I am especially proud of the cooperation, mutual respect, the level of commitment, and the teamwork that has been demonstrated by everyone involved in this production. From the beginning planning stages back in October, the effort has been a truly collaborative one and credit goes to so many places as indicated earlier in the program. Most of the credit goes to these kids who have put together another superb show. They have put egos aside and discovered that whether they have one line or fifty, were on or off stage, that everyone shares equally in the pride and success of such an accomplishment. Best of luck to our graduating seniors - most of you have been involved in some sort of production since 3rd and 4th grade. Even though you are now adults and we approach last midnight - remember that adults are just kids in grown-up clothing and you are never too old to eat an animal cracker the right way (you know - legs, head, body) ~ JL

 


 

Thank you to all parents and volunteers who helped with costumes and sets for this show. Special thanks to: Jamie Fox for your wisdom and guidance in helping to make the AWESOME costumes happen. I most certainly would not have been able to accomplish this without your help. Brian Fox for spearheading the sets! Anita Gordon for ALL the sewing this year! Sandy Reel for mobcaps. “Study Hall Cr3w,” Veronica King, Christian Hampton, Cole Ham, TC Davis and Jonathan Michalski for taking time out of their day to be crafty for the show! - Ms. Thwaites
