Everyone got their “Golden Tickets” and headed to Community High School’s Spring production of “Willy Wonka” on April 7!
This year, Lisa Stein, Drama Director, and David Graessle, Music Director, put on “Willy Wonka” as the high school musical, and it was fabulous! The actors, almost 30 in all, were extremely excited right from the start to be performing this well-known classic!
“A large cast is always more challenging, but more fun and looks better in the actual performances.” — Lisa
She also mentioned that there were only 4 veterans to the stage this year. The remaining cast members were all new-comers and did an amazing job. Lisa was very excited to be working with a cast so large.
The show was performed April 5, 2017 for the Lower School and then twice again on Friday, April 7. “We perform a matinee for the school and a night show for parents and friends”, said Stein. The shows were huge successes! Said Dave Graessle, “It’s always great to perform a well-known play. The audience really loved it!”
