Big Up to all the Performers:
Susie Abraham
Emily Askin
Mo Fathelbab
Brianna Jacobson
Rich Jordan
Oscar Magallanes
Ellie Mae McNulty
John Milhiser
Hal Phillips
Craig Rowin
Katie Schorr
Ari Scott
Emily Tarver
Catherine Wing

And of course our Director: Christina Gausas

Thank you for making this show memorable!
