“I do not exaggerate when I say this was the best high school musical production I’ve ever attended in the 40+ years of theater experience,” commented one of the judges. “You’ve won me over as a fan, and I intend to attend future productions at Cretin-Derham Hall, whether as a representative of the SpotLight program or simply as an admirer of well-crafted theatre.”
Congratulations to director Anne Frances Gregg and her talented team of students!
