-----
Maeve McPeek (Crutchie)
"I am most excited about performing with my friends. I love being part of theatre because it makes it possible to express myself in a different way. It is fun to play different people and figure out how to create a personality. Fun fact: I love to cook and bake meals for my family."
-----
Ruby Eberly (Newsie)
"I am most excited to perform in “King of New York" and am looking forward to finally being in an in-person school play! Fun fact: I started performing in musical theater when I was 6 years old. Newsies will be the 18th show I have been in! In June, I will be performing in my 19th and 20th shows!"
-----
Clara Wittrock (Les)
"I'm most excited that we get to be on stage finally after 2 years of canceled and online shows. I love to perform! Fun fact: I've been taking dance classes since I was 2, and this year I started Pointe!"
-----
Sunny Stein (Henry)
"I'm most excited about performing with my friends, who are also in the show - and I am also excited about the dancing element of the show, because I love to dance and move! What I love most about being part of theatre is that you get to know people, and make new friends - and over time the cast you are with becomes like your family, and I think that is really fun! Fun fact: all of my closest friends got into the show with me, so we all get to spend almost every afternoon together, and we are all Newsies, so it is super fun to spend time with them!"
-----
Mia McHugh (Albert)
"I'm most excited about the dancing and performing with my friends in the cast and crew!! I love meeting people with similar interests. Fun fact: I love singing in the shower really LOUD!"
-----
Gabi Patsiner (Hannah)
"I'm most excited to put on the show in front of an audience. It all makes me feel happy! Fun fact: I have sung with my music school in restaurants and street fairs ."

-----
Ethan Gordon (Romeo)
"I'm excited that as things are right now, we will be able to have a show in front of a live audience. I love learning choreography and songs, but most of all I love doing it all with my friends. Fun fact: When I was born the doctor told my mom to buy me tap shoes. I have been dancing since I was around 2 years old!"
-----
Spencer Gordon (Tech)
"I am excited to see the back end of what happens to put a show together. I love the feeling of being part of the whole production. Fun fact: My great grandfather, Papa Goldie, was a newsie in the early 1900's in NY. He sold papers using a horse and buggy."
-----
Audrey Cuddire (Ensemble)
"I'm really excited for being able to dance and sing with my friends!! Every chance that I get to be in a show, I always try my best! I've been in about 5 or 6 plays so far. I went to drama camp for three years here at the middle school and always participated in musical performances in elementary school! Everyone is so supportive and kind in drama club, I just feel that I can always be myself without the outside world judging me. I'm super excited to be working with you all this year!!!⭐ I love being able to express myself up on stage and the feeling that I can just be myself! Fun fact about myself: I'm a member of an acting agency and have been in a movie before!! I'm also a pretty popular animator on YouTube called Galaxy_wolfWings! I love to animate and draw in my free time."

You're invited to contribute to the Monroe Woodbury Middle School's Drama Program in support of the cast and crew above along with many others.
Throughout the pandemic the drama club has been an oasis of creativity, connection, and expression for these kids - the team at MWMS works tirelessly to bring incredible productions to life that serve both the students AND the community.
Your donations go towards costumes, set-building, and giving our kids the opportunity to work with an incredible production team - true theater professionals, from our skilled director to a Broadway choreographer, as well as lighting designers, sound technicians, and musicians who've performed and worked in theaters across the country.
No amount is too small. Please contribute what you can, when you can -- every donation, no matter the size, will be acknowledged in the program!
