NOTES FROM THE DIRECTORS

 

To the Audience: We would like to thank all of you for coming out to our performances of this wonderful musical!  Your support is very humbling! The past 3 months have been an incredible journey working with these young men and women. They have given us many hours of dedicated, hard work and many laughs! The amount of effort required to bring a show like this to life is immense and the end result is a testament to the students' work ethics. All of you should be extrememly proud of your children, grandchildren, nephews, nieces, and family friends. WE definitely are!!

 

To the Cast: We always try to come up with words to express our gratitude to each of you for all of your hard work in this endeavor, but words seem to fall short of how we truly feel. It was a joy for us to be with all of you through this creative journey. It was great watching you grow into your roles and how you brought characters to life. Thank you for being good "big brothers and sisters" to Rose! We won't quite know what to do next week when there are no more musical rehearsals to go to! But we will always remember this group and how you all "Seized the Day" and created an outstanding production!

 

To the 7th-10th Graders: We hope you have enjoyed this experience whether it is your 1st show or your 3rd. We also hope to work with all of you again in 2 years as we bring another musical to life on our stage! There are some VERY talented young actors and actesses in this group and we know the next show will be another great success!!

 

To the Juniors and Seniors: Thank you for all of your hard work in our past productions of Shrek, High School Musical, and Beauty and the Beast! It has truly been a pleasure to watch you develop your skills on the stage and become confident actors and actesses! We were blessed to have you all as part of our musical casts over the past years and you gave us "Something To Believe In" and we knew you would always step up to the challenge. Soon "The World Will Know" what we know...that you are a wonderful group of young people and we know your futures will be bright! And please know that your musical gifts and your general presence in our next show will be greatly missed!  Remember to stop by and say hi!

 

Finally, it is always hard when this musical journey comes to an end but we hope you made lasting memories and friendships that will be a part of you for years to come!

 

Thank you cast for all of the wonderful memories!!!!

Mr. and Mrs. Anderson (and Rose)
