 End Notes 

To the Cast and Crew,

 

I would like to thank each and every one of you for the last 5 months of hard work and dedication into making this an outstanding production. The countless hours that it took to learn the lines, block the scenes, create the props, and learn the choreography only shows that we have the best cast and crew in town!

 

Kim and Virginia, thank you for always being my sounding boards and keeping me straight. I know my singing is killing you! I could not do it without you two! You are a God send to me!

 

Karen and Jaime Lynn , thank you for joining our crew of crazies this year! Your insight and patience is a great balance to my hyper mind. Can't wait to see what the next few years will bring to this partnership! You help is so appreciated!!

 

Tiffanie, thank you for your the role of Prop director and costume organizer! No small task with that many things to keep up with! You help with the kids has been tremendous and hard to replace!

 

Matt, thank you from the bottom of my heart for taking on the sound system for us and setting up for us. And a huge shout out to your dad, Herb for all of his help! You have been a wonderful asset to our team and appreciate you so much!

 

Michael, thank you for putting up with my crazy ideas and always stepping up to help me follow through with my hairbrained ideas. From crazy prop builds to manning the ropes on the curtains, you are the number one guy on my list! Oh by the way next year is a new play is it too early to share the blueprints?

Thank you to the administration of Southside Elementary for allowing us the freedom to create this program.

 

Thank you to the School Board members and Superintendent for supporting our program over the years. We can't wait for next year with the collaboration of multiple schools!
