It's Frog and Toad...Monday!
Meet cast member Ava Scifres! Ava is a sophomore at HHS and this is her seventh production for HHS Drama Club. Her debut performance was as Rebecca Gibbs in Our Town as a 4th grader. Ava will be taking on the hilarious role of Snail in A Year With Frog and Toad.
Ava is always willing to go the extra mile and try new and silly things in rehearsal. She is constantly making us laugh! Watching Ava's confidence in herself and what she can do on stage grow over the years has been so amazing! Coming from a big family of very talented performers, it is sometimes difficult to find your own voice, but Ava has definitely found hers. We are so proud of her! More importantly, she has such a kind and open heart and always makes her castmates feel welcome and accepted. 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 currently on sale at https://our.show/frogandtoad. Don't miss your chance to see Ava and her castmates tell these classic and heartwarming stories!
