My favorite memory would probably have to be the Senior Pass Down from last year during to be the Senior Pass Down from last year during Nice Work If You Can Get It. During rituals for the boys, we had this little ceremony as to who would be given the new role to lead rituals. The ambience, the people — it was all perfect for that moment to come alive.

Honestly, just everything about Murder on the Orient Express was awesome. It was double-casted, so I got to hang out with everybody the whole time. It was great and really fun to work on.

My favorite memory was being able to see the actors perform in rehearsals. I’m so thankful for all the people I’ve become close with.

My favorite memory would be our production of last year's ensemble show production of last year's ensemble show Double Exposure. I think it's our company's funniest. I think it's our company's funniest production yet. Though we plan to take that mantle with this year's ensemble show The 39 Steps.

Putting a ridiculous amount of hair gel in the boys' hair for Murder on the Orient Express Murder on the Orient Express!!

The hardest part of my role was to trying to act in a male role as it was my first time. The easiest part was being able to work with my great co-actors.

The hardest part about being Reverend Parris was playing someone who everyone was supposed to hate. We were all everyone was supposed to hate. We were all friends so naturally it was an adjustment for friends so naturally it was an adjustment for me to try and treat them so differently. The easiest part of playing him was the costume. It was nice. It was nice, simplistic, and I only had trouble with the buttons every other show.

This show was very emotionally demanding. My character, Abigail, was pretty demanding. My character, Abigail, was pretty messed up in the head, so it was draining getting into that mindset everyday. The easiest part was running the Hair and Makeup crew. part was running the Hair and Makeup crew. My crew was very dedicated and worked really hard which made my job a lot easier.
