Yes, it was icy on Friday. Yes, the busses did not run. Yes, all 260 students who attended school on Friday were treated to an enthralling performance by our Triple Threat Theatre Company. Once again Mr. Tokarsky weaved his magic and our students were transformed into a professional theatre troupe who entertained us royally for 90 minutes on Friday morning.
I am in constant awe of how our Fine Arts teachers are able to get our normally shy and reticent adolescents to step up and risk everything to perform at such a high level. Robert Hendry as Hansel and Jenna Stumber as Gretal were captivating and left us forgetting that we were watching a Grade 7 boy and a Grade 8 girl. They ROCKED! The remainder of the cast were excellent as they played off of each other with great timing. Most importantly, we heard every word!
The supporting tech crew were amazing. I was particularity captivated by the use of the fog machine run by Jennifer Warholik. Every cue was hit, there was never too much fog, she knew how to set a mood.
Once again, thanks to all who made the show a raving success!
