Julian Tushabe

Albert Peterson

Julian Tushabe, otherwise known as “the voice of Queensbury,” and “theatre boy,” is extremely excited that his mother finally gets to see him dance and play the “good guy,” after a long run of intense roles. (Sweeney Todd, Javert, Audrey II etc.) He would like to thank his biggest critics, Peris and Bethany, for always pushing him to be the best he can be, his mom and dad, for supporting him in all of his endeavours, and his girlfriend Nicole for being his biggest fan. He is incredibly grateful to have experienced this beautiful art form through the school musical and Saratoga Children’s Theatre, for over 6 years. Julian will be attending Skidmore College this fall as a double major in Fashion Business Management and Theatre. He hopes you enjoy the show and would like to remind everyone to “Put On A Happy Face.”

Cole Carpenter

as Harry MacAfee

Cole Carpenter is grateful to be performing as Harry MacAfee in this year's production of Bye Bye Birdie. This is Cole's second performance at QHS, following an award-nominated performance in Les Miserables. Next year, Cole plans to study Neuroscience while hopefully continuing to perform in a vocal ensemble at his chosen school. Cole would like to thank his parents, Lori and Pete for their wealth of love and support, as well as the countless educators who have made a profound impact on his life. He would especially like to thank Mrs. Laura Lee Deland for encouraging him to join chorus the day before 6th grade, for without that impetus, he might not be on the stage today.
