Welcome to our production of The Lion King Jr.
This show has been such a beautiful journey — full of laughter, learning, hard work, and heart. I am incredibly proud of our cast and crew for everything they’ve poured into this production. The kids have shown such dedication, courage, and growth throughout this process, and it’s been a true joy to watch them come alive on stage.
I want to take a moment to offer a very special thank you to four people who truly made this show possible: Will Guinto, Jess Hayes, Jess Cruz, Jo Ann De Leon and Cindy Villaruz. The Show simply wouldn’t have happened without this crew. As I navigated some personal challenges, these five stepped in without hesitation, held things together, and saved the day. I’m so incredibly grateful for your strength, your support, and your belief in this program.
To the parents — thank you for your constant support, your flexibility, your eye for details, and your willingness to help wherever needed. Your commitment makes all the difference, and I couldn’t do this without you.
To SJES, Mrs. Colvert, and Father Mario — thank you for continuing to support the arts and for helping keep this tradition alive. Your belief in the importance of theater for young people means the world to me and to our community.
I love you all. I hope you enjoy the show — we’ve poured our hearts into it.
With love and gratitude,
Mrs. D (Sierra Dominguez)
Director, The Lion King Jr.
