Saint James School Sets the Stage
This fall, Saint James provided the community another glimpse into its performing arts program. Alice in Wonderland was a spectacular school production that took weeks of dedication and commitment to pull together by the theatre director, the cast of students from high school and middle school, stage managers, crew members, and other volunteers. Rehearsals began in mid-September and included weekends as opening night drew near. The students performed to a full house each of their four performances November 9-11. STJ senior Sally Brown is pictured with her kindergarten buddy Alex Kirkland and the White Queen (STJ senior Julia Jung) after one of the school’s productions.
