Emily Duvall
It has been such a dream to help out with the production of this show! I am a long time fan of Grease, it was one of the first musicals I saw that got me hooked on musical theatre. I have had the privilege of performing in this theatre in almost 20 different productions since I went to MLHS. And having the opportunity to assist and aid behind the scenes was new and exciting and I learned so much from these talented kids and the amazing directors that shaped and molded this show. I hope you enjoy it as much as I have!

The first thing I did in tech was the "Addams Family" tree, yeah that big one. We also reused it in Alice in Wonderland and the "Senior One-Acts". I was so proud of myself. I love painting on sets as well as off sets, I paint during my free time and love being alone and blasting music while doing so. I have many friends in theater, they are all so sympathetic and caring even outside of theater. It really is a good place, and a good family.
