Students unleash creativity at OriginalWorks 25

Written by

Congratulations to our students on their recent OriginalWorks performances! MC-ed by hilarious Improv Club members Eric Ding '25, Taylor Fernandez '25, Mackenzie Breg '26, Raphael Loizides '27, and Kody Mitchell '26 community members enjoyed original performances created by our students including 12 scenes and skits, 5 dance routines, and 2 songs. This event usually includes Upper School students only, but this year, the audience also viewed dance numbers from five Middle School students.

These 9th through 12th grade students share their artistic voices and perspectives in work developed through the Upper School Dance and Theater classes. The night was kicked off with the Diversity Grant Fund Dinner and AP Studio Art Show, creating a beautiful community experience!
