Now that auditions for Grease finally are over, it’s time for us to take a sigh of relief. We began our first official rehearsal—the read through—by eating cake! This is one of the special traditions we have in Allen; whenever we read a new script for the first time, we celebrate by stuffing our faces with this yummy treat. However, we still have a long way to go before Opening Night.
As we sat around the stage and read our parts out loud, a thought hit me—Berkshire Theater has grown so much! As of now, we have about 30 people, adults and students, working on this performance. By far, it’s the largest show I will be working on, considering that just a few years ago, I was in a show with eight people.
It’s evident that Berkshire Theater has expanded into everyday life at Berkshire. I had many people come up to me and express how excited they were to see Grease in a few months. And so am I. For many of us, this will be our last musical at school. But for now, we’ll stay present and make this the best musical this school has seen!
