Dear SJND Parents and Students,
Recently, our Musical Theater program hosted auditions for our Spring Musical,
The Man Who Broke the Bank at Monte Carlo
,
Lucky Stiff
. About 40 students auditioned and around 25-30 students will be in the cast and 10-15 will be in the production crew and band.
SJND’s most dedicated theater arts students have earned induction into the International Thespian Society (ITS), the honor society for secondary school theatre students. Each Thespian inductee completed over 100 hours of excellent work in theater arts and related disciplines. In doing so, they have acquired essential 21st century life and career skills that include creativity and innovation, critical thinking, problem solving, teamwork and effective communication. Congratulations to seniors Elle Kallsen, Jackson McDermott and Taylor Viera!
Mark your calendars for SJND’s production of
The Man Who Broke the Bank at Monte Carlo
,
Lucky Stiff.
Performances are February 27, 28, 29 at 7:30 p.m. and February 29 & March 1 at 2:00 p.m.
Special thanks to Ms. Lauren Rosi, Theater Director and teacher, for sharing her enthusiasm and passion for the arts with our students.
Ms. Guevara
Interim Principal
