SIGN HERE. Last year, the spring show was “Into the Woods.” During one of the performances, the musical was shortened and ridded of any subject matter that is not kid friendly. It was deemed a “kids night” and after the show, the children could take pictures and get autographs from the characters.

SHOW TIME. “Into the Woods” has music by Stephen Sondheim, while the book is by James Lapine. The story is a combination of various fairy tales, including “Little Red Riding Hood,” “Jack and the Beanstalk,” and “Cinderella.” Aves Theater’s performance takes place over two weekends: April 13-14 and April 20-21.

BETTER TOGETHER. Working with such a small cast encourages students to become closer. After a year of being in class together, students usually have had a chance to get to know each other, but if not, student-directed one acts provide an opportunity to bond with students before the year ends. Generally, this is an especially valuable experience for seniors who will be moving on after graduation.

DAFFODILS. Last year’s spring production was “Big Fish.” The cast was comparable in size to that of "Joseph." The big spectacle in the show was a curtain covered with hundreds of handmade daffodils.

SOUND IT OUT. Stage manager Sara Cohen, 12, directs all actions backstage by coordinating set changes on the ground, and through the fly system. “Although some people may think actors just act on stage, they also help out behind the scenes during tech. During set construction, we all work together to create the setting of the show," said Julie Whapham, 12.

TURN IT UP. Each show has a dedicated crew that works hours to perfect the performance on stage. Senior Nitin Pauletti works behind the scenes to coordinate music, microphones, and the orchestra.“You are in charge of your own part, and if you didn't do it correctly, a lot of things could go wrong. I really like that aspect of importance,” Pauletti said.
