Musical Theatre Class

The Musical Theatre Class has been re-constructing the Pit Theatre stage, which had water damage over the summer.
Carissa Brockman, Aleta Martens, Brayden Holman, and Angie Neufeld put screws into the floor decking.

Miranda Young "feels the power" of the drill.

Heidi Dick and Laura Schmidt enjoy the class.

The floor deck is almost complete.

The class is beginning preparations for the Christmas Theatre to be presented at the end of November.
