Thank you to Morgan, Tierney and the rest of the production team for making this a fun rehearsal process (even when it was tough)! Thanks to Nat for dealing with their post rehearsal stress and helping bring the set to life. Biggest thanks go to their parents and Sonia for being so supportive of their creative endeavors and always encouraging them to follow their dreams. From this Ugly Duckling to the next, always remember: Different is just… well… different!
