This hilarious retelling of Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream brought the story to a modern-day Jersey Shore beach boardwalk. Directed by Liberty auditorium attendant Justine Luevano, with student assistant director Camryn Yasenchak, the production featured several new faces to the LHS stage alongside returning theatre veterans.
The show was a unique opportunity to bring all elements of the theatre program together, combining the talents of student actors and technical crew to create an entertaining production.
Theatre teacher Caitlin Herring shared a special thank-you to Justine for taking on the tremendous responsibility of directing the show while Caitlin was away on maternity leave and ensuring everything ran smoothly. She also recognized Camryn for being a wonderful example of leadership, dedication, and determination within the program.
Midsummer/Jersey was the first production of the PTC season, themed "Let the Good Times Roll." Up next, Liberty Theatre will take the stage with Disney's Freaky Friday!
Students interested in getting involved can pick up audition packets for the musical, technical applications for backstage opportunities, or learn more about joining the second season of Liberty's improv team, Cue the Chaos. Information will be available in Room 303 beginning Monday.
Congratulations to the entire cast and crew on a fantastic production, and thank you to everyone who continues to make Liberty Theatre a place where students can discover their talents and shine!
