I have been on Production team since the 6th grade as a production assistant. In 7th grade I had worked my way up to a stage manager working on Game of Tiaras. In my last year at Grassland I am so excited to be working with the amazing cast and crew of It's a Madhouse to make this performance the best it can be!

I have enjoyed working with everyone on the spring play this year! From 1st to 4th grade, I was in a play every year as it was a requirement at my old school. I like to play volleyball and hang out with friends when I'm not at school. I would like to thank my parents for supporting me through all this. I would also like to thank Ms. Keith for letting me be a part of this experience!

I'm so sad that this is my last year being able to participate in the Grassland Middle School Spring Play! I've be in the production team since 6th grade and I've loved it! In 6th grade i was Publicity and Make-up, in 7th grade I was Props Master, and now I'm in 8th grade as a Stage Manager! I am so happy to have been able to be a part of all three years in this amazing community! I am thrilled i was able to be apart of this! Thank you to Ms. Keith for letting me be apart of this Production!

Maggie is in 7th grade and has been doing production team for 2 years. She is so grateful for this opportunity. She would like to thank her mom and dad for picking her up from every late-night practice and her sister, Addie Gail, for always being there for her. She is so glad to be following in her sister's footsteps. Maggie would lastly like to thank her amazing fellow production team members and of course, Ms.Keith for giving me this opportunity I would not be the person I am today without her!

This is my second play with Ms.Keith and I have really enjoyed working with her! I would like to thank the whole cast and crew as they put many hours into this show!

Hello! This is my fifth production that I've participated in in a technical capacity. I've run sounds, lights, and bubble machines here at my time in the Theater, and I'm very grateful for the opportunities that I have been given. I have absolutely loved learning the systems here at the school, and my time here has really differentiated myself in terms of knowledge. I hope you enjoy the show!

Peter is excited to be part of his third GPAC show, It's a Madhouse, after working on crew for Elf Jr. and Game of Tiaras. He enjoys learning all about the technical side of things.

Connor is very grateful for this fabulous opportunity to work on the production team for the comedy play, It's a Madhouse. He just finished up crew for the musical Elf Jr. and couldn't wait to start another performance. He's also worked on separate plays like Treasure Island, and more. He is in the Year Round group in Grassland Middle School and hopes to pursue a career in the film industry. He thanks his Drama Teacher, Ms. Keith, for this amazing opportunity and his family for supporting him through this amazing show.

Crimson has enjoyed working on the costumes for It's a Madhouse! at GMS. He recently helped work on the stage lighting for Elf Jr., which was also at GMS. Crimson is currently an 8th grader at Grassland Middle School. When he isn't in the theater, he enjoys studying Greek Mythology and making music. He wants to thank his friend Venus, for somehow putting up with him over the years.

Being apart of the Madhouse has been such a joy and I’m so glad I joined. It has be an amazing experience and it’s given me such a chance to be myself. The people and community are amazing. I’m so glad I decided to join and it couldn’t have been better.

I've always loved theater but juggling school and learning lines seemed too hard. So, the Production team, it was! I have loved every minute of it and love the community of actors! I want to thank everyone who has supported me through this! Big thank you to Ms. Keith for this opportunity! <3

I am new, so I am very thankful to be able to help out! Thank you Ms. Keith for reaching out to me, and to the students for being so welcoming!

Hello! I am a 6th grader and this is my first time being a crew member at GMS. I'm very excited for this play.

Insley Ogles is the one that made me want to do this, so say hi to her!

Thanks to my parents for pushing my to do this

I’ve performed in BBK in California since I was about 3 before I moved to Tennessee 3 years ago. I have auditioned in Elf and Games of Tiaras since I did not make those cuts I still wanted to be a part of the show that is why I wanted to join crew. I really like being able to help out and being able to do all the painting. This has been a great experience for me.

Thank you Ms. Keith for being a great director, and the cast for doing such a good job in rehearsal. Hope you enjoy the show :)

Hello! I'm 13 and this is my first year at Grassland. I moved here from Costa Rica. My family and I were foreign catholic missionaries for 2 and a half years. We have moved about 20 times in the last 3 months. I play piano and I speak fluent Spanish. I want to thank my family especially my parents. Y'all have done so much for me and I could never tell you how grateful I am. Thank you Cooper, Jay, Tessa, Adrian, and David for being the best siblings I could ever ask for. Thank you Grassland for being really welcoming. Last but not least, thank you Jesus for leading me everywhere I go.

I would like to thank my Mom and my dad.

Sage is very happy to be able to do makeup for the "It's a Madhouse!" cast. She would like to thank everyone involved for welcoming her into crew and for this opportunity!

I'm very grateful for being here. Thank you Ms. Keith!

This is my second time doing set construction. Thanks to Mrs. Keith for letting me do set crew for the second time. :)

I would like to thank my parents who make me able to do this and have always supported me.

I am so thankful that I got chosen to be an assistant backstage for the play It's A Madhouse. I love being a part of the Grassland theater productions in my first year of middle school.

Garrett Sakarapanee is a 6th grade student who was recently Fake Santa in ''Elf The Musical" at GMS and wanted to be a part of the play without auditioning. When he's not at school he could be found playing video games, watching TV, or reading a book. He would like to thank Mrs Keith for letting him be in the crew team as in usher.

I love to be artistic and I am so thankful for the opportunity to work with people who share the same passion as me and it is such a good way to express myself. Thank you to Grant, Kennedy, Nadia, and Vesper for supporting me even in something as small as crew!

I love doing stage crew so much! It is such a fun experience and I have met so many fun people!

Jennifer Keith is directing her 20th production at GMS. As a student here, she was involved in several productions under the direction of the late Sandy Sullivan, a true legend in the Grassland Community. After leaving GMS, Ms. Keith attended Franklin High School where she appeared in every major stage production during her four years there. Upon graduation, she studied at the College of Charleston where she majored in Education with a minor in Theatre. She quickly found a home at her former middle school and created the Theatre class the next year. Thank you to all the parents that were so incredibly helpful during the last few weeks, her fellow theatre colleagues, especially Tori Capps at FHS, her former students that came back and helped with auditions and rehearsals, and her mom for always being willing to jump in and help at every show. She is so very proud of the cast and crew , and hopes everyone enjoys the backstabbing antics in It’s a Madhouse!
