Thank you to each and every cast and crew member for working so hard and for being so committed to the success of this show. I have been thoroughly impressed by your collective talent and the level to which you were always prepared for each rehearsal. It was obvious that all of you went to great lengths to do whatever you could to continue to improve. All of that hard work and dedication is evident to everyone who watches you perform. This club has had a tremendously successful year, and we have certainly grown in many ways. This makes me excited for our future. You should be very proud of yourselves for everything that you have accomplished. I look forward to working with you again in future productions.
To my seniors-Jake, Andrew, Dan, Kennedy, Jeff, Kyle, Jillian, Colton, & Abby- I truly mean this when I say that each of you will be sorely missed by everyone in this organization. It is difficult to imagine the club without you, and it will certainly be difficult to fill your shoes. Thank you for all of the laughs, dedication, enthusiasm, and words of encouragement that you provided throughout your years in the program. To my newest senior members- Trevor, Malik, Devin, Tyler, and Brooke- Thank you for joining us! All of us are certainly grateful for the time and commitment that you put into this show. I wish you all the best in your future endeavors.
