It's Frog and Toad Friday!
Meet cast member Faith Post! Faith is a junior at HHS and this is her eighth production for HHS Drama Club! Faith will be taking on the role of Bird and Mother Frog in A Year With Frog and Toad.
Faith is our resident mother hen and takes such good care of all of the members of our cast! She is constantly checking in with everyone and making sure we are where we are supposed to be. There is no one more reliable and dependable. If Faith tells you she is going to do something, you can consider it done. This girl (along with her sister) continually organizes our props and costumes and spends part of her summer packing everything up so we can find it the following year. Her giving heart and dedication to our organization make us ALL better and we are so lucky she is part of this cast!
HHS Drama Club will present A Year With Frog and Toad May 5th-7th at Lewis Street Playhouse! Tickets are on sale now at https://our.show/frogandtoad. Don't miss your chance to see Faith and her castmates tell these classic and heartwarming stories!
