EP's first theater production class performs spring musical at EPHS
Stepping Out, by Richard Harris, is “a play with dancing.”  The story brings us into a weekly class for beginning tap dancers, but we learn much more about the class members than we do about dancing.  This ensemble of unlikely, and mostly unskilled, dancers will have you laughing and maybe even wanting to tap along.  

For this production, a cast of 13 EPHS students has been supported by about 20 tech crew students and members of our first ever theatre production class. Come and see what the students have designed, built, painted and rehearsed! We are excited to see you there!

Reserve either in-person or virtual tickets:
