To my team:
Ruth, thank you, as always, for your tremendous work on the set and in the million other things that you do to make each and every show a success. From your road trips to pick up antiques, to your endless prop searches, to your weaponry research, everything you do is much appreciated and does not go unnoticed. All those small details really set our productions apart.
Colleen, thank you so much for agreeing to return to the program. I love the dances, and I definitely couldn't do this without you. I am fortunate to know and work with you.
Randa, I am so grateful and blessed that you are a part of this program. Thank you for all of your efforts and the extra time you spend working with the students. It is much appreciated.
Johanna, thank you for all the work you have done to make sure the ads, playbill, and ticket sales run smoothly. I appreciate all of your efforts!
Mom, thank you for always diving into the costume research and selection with me. Thanks for the endless amounts of ironing and fitting and altering you do. I truly appreciate having a mother who is so busy who still makes the time to help me and all of these students out. I am blessed that you are my mom.
Maddie, so glad that you are willing to share your time with us and come back to assist. I look forward to continuing to work with you in the future.
Greg, thanks for always agreeing to return to the madness and for putting up with me at the sound board! I appreciate you very much!
Kipp, I am so glad you have decided to continue programming our lights for the year. You always do amazing work, and it is great hanging out in the booth with you. You often keep me calm!
I am so thankful to each and every one of you for sharing your gifts, time, and energy with our students to make this program what it is.
To my cast and crew: I am so very proud of you for all of your hard work and dedication. You have impressed me with your commitment, enthusiasm, and hard work. I look forward to the audience seeing your production and recognizing all of you for the amazing work you have created. I also look forward to working with you TWO MORE TIMES this year. It will certainly be crazy, but I already know it will be worth it. You are all amazing, and I am blessed to be able to know and work with each and every one of you. Thank you for caring about this program so much. I am excited for our future.
Thank you to all of you,
Mrs. Drum
