Thank you to...
My amazing creative team: Angy McGann, Mr. Spohn, Mr. Dempsey - this production would not be what it is without you. Thank you for sharing your time, your dedication, and your passion.
Kelly Husted, my Assistant Director, I know I am only a figment if your imagination, so all the accolades go to you. I will sincerely miss collaborating with you. (And not just because you agree that I am always right.) You have such passion and skill for theatre, I am excited for your story to unfold.
Sophie Fougere, my Stage Manager, I cannot tell you how much I appreciate your calm leadership, your organization, your responsibility, your creativity. And yes, of course, you may borrow my keys.
My cast and crew, for your constant enthusiasm, your hard work, and all the laughs. I won’t forget the UnderShrek. Let’s do a Gatsby-inspired revival in the springtime, shall we? Flapper dresses for everyone!
Mr. Belcher and Mr. Brown, as well as our superintendent, Mr. Manahan, for their trust and unwavering support.
Mrs. Wheeler, for always guiding me and making sure the financial aspects of the production were taken care of in a timely manner. And she does it all with a smile.
Mrs. Niemela, for making sure Drama Club had the auditorium reserved every time we needed it (which is a lot!) and helping advertise the show.
Mrs. Isaacs, for so many things! She always finds the time in her crazy schedule to answer my questions, and she lets us rehearse in her room. She helped choose the perfect musical for these kids, gave us advice on casting, and encourages everyone to do their best. Plus all the amazing work she does in choir helps these kids shine when they take the stage!
My hard-working understudies (Tyler, Cara, Shelby, Zack M., Grace, Zach W., Caden), I cannot thank you enough for your flexibility and dedication. I hope you know how important you are to the success of our show.
