The following individuals deserve many thanks and much appreciation for their unending contributions to the production:

- Mr. Keith Ellison & the HCPAC Staff for their help and use of their facilities.
- Marco Romanelli & Rose Nanry for building the barricade.
- Lori Ardis & Caryn Thompson for all the painting, and hammering, and nailing, etc...
- Mindy Martin and Darlene Sabine for helping out behind the scenes.
- Jo Rickard for helping out and playing during rehearsal when we really needed someone. You are always so giving!
- Kasey and Kelly for bringing your brilliant talent to join our pit.
- Tyler Patrick for his wonderful idea of online ticket sales and teaching this old goat how it works!
- Chrissy Curry for her beautiful artwork and artistry!
- Jeannine Sigler, known as Meme to all who love her, for her endless sewing by hand simply because she loves the kids!
- Jennifer & Jay Nelson for going above and beyond the role of parent and vocal/staging coaches!
- Chris Corley, husband and Dad extradonaire, for picking up costumes, driving sets, giving up personal time, and genuinely being a good spoort about all of this!
- Josh Walker for beleiveing in the kids (and me) and their talent, and for truly loving what he does as much as I do! I can't wait to do a show together again! Thank you my friend!
- Dorcas Toledo-Acosta and Erin Uesseler for doing so much more than I ever expected or even asked... without these two ladies I would have not been able to handle a musical of this caliber. My love and thanks for allowing me the freedom to do what I am supposed to do in a musical instead of all the other duties!
- My beautiful Breck, Savannah, Shameem and Maddie for keeping me sane and being the incredible strong young women I know they are... I hope each of you can imagine the universe above and know that is how much you are appreciated and loved!!!
- To all the students whether on onstage, backstage or in the pit... I know you think I talk too much. It is a truth, I will give you that... Lol! But I honestly hope you know how hard it is for me to fight back tears of joy and pride when I experience the final product in performance. Your level of artistry is astounding for high school! It is a gift from heaven and I am blessed beyond words.
Love,
Ms. Cynthia
