Nicholas Monaco
Stage Manager
Nick Monaco is a junior who has learned that the art of technical theatre is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be, unnatural. That is why he is the Stage Manager for the stupefying production of Footloose! His theatrical resumé includes serving as the Stage Manager for the 2024 annual One Act Competition, proving that whether it’s a full length musical or a high pressure one-act, Nick is always ready with a perfectly executed “Go.” He has also contributed to both Radium Girls, and Little Shop of Horrors as the inviting Assistant Stage Manager who somehow learned the dangers of glow in the dark watches and man-eating plants all within two shows. In the end, the best lesson Nick has taken from Stage Managing is that this is where the fun begins.

Adriana Peres Da Silva
Assistant Stage Manager
Adriana Peres Da Silva is a senior and would like to welcome you to Syosset HS. In the town of Bomont, there are tons of rules everyone must follow. Adri is like Ren in that she sees rules as suggestions. When not on stage, Adri can be seen pretending she has her life together, walking down the halls like there is a wind machine behind her, and attempting to do the dances that are happening on stage, then realizing why she is part of stage crew. She is thankful for trucks, her mom, tangerines, and fire extinguishers because who doesn’t like fire extinguishers.

(Deck Chief), School of Rock (Co-Technical Director), As You Like It (Technical Director), and his latest production, Radium Girls (Technical Director), Jack brings extensive experience to this production.

He hopes that you will enjoy his 4th consecutive production as Technical Director and that all of the visions that intrigued him in the planning process, will captivate you in this year's production!
