Last Thursday, Nov. 14, Friday, Nov. 15, and Saturday, Nov. 16, the theater department put on a musical production of Disney’s Beauty and the Beast. The production received acclaim from students and staff alike; it was the first show in the program’s history to completely sell out a show. Success at this level comes with much sacrifice, however.

Daniel Liang, 12, who played Cogsworth, said, “I’m incredibly happy, everyone put in so much work and it paid off so well.”

Looking forward to the future, the bar has only been raised higher.

“I hope for it to just keep getting better and better. I think [Adrianna] Wendel [has] proved that we can do really amazing shows and I think [they’re] only going to get better from here.”

The theater department will perform an adaptation of the movie The Outsiders in the spring.

Dylan Estes, Galleries and Data Manager
Hey!! I’m Dylan. I’m a junior and this is my second year in SPUB! I’m the galleries manager and the data manager this year. I don’t do much front facing work, but I keep up with a lot of systems that help SPUB run smoothly. I do SPUB because I love to design and photography, but I also love meeting people and hearing their stories and what they have to say. Everybody has something worth sharing!! I’m excited to lay the groundwork this year for how SPUB can become a bigger part of our school community. If I’m not knee-deep in yearbook designs, team score tracking, or interview transcriptions, you can find me pretty much anywhere around the school, I love getting involved! I’m also in cross country, track, band, StuCo, scholar’s bowl, and LINKs. On the rare occasion I have free time you can usually find me with a film camera, hanging out with friends, or hiking.
