Which character do you play in this year’s winter musical, Titanic, and how do relate to your character?

“I played Fredrick Barrett who is a stoker on the Titanic.  While we have very different lives, we relate in many ways as he is a very hopeful person which is displayed when he proposes to his girlfriend while on the Titanic.  He also often chooses to put others before himself, which can be seen when he gives up his seat in a lifeboat, so a man could go with his pregnant fiancé, knowing it would cost him his life.”

What is the most challenging aspect of putting the musical together, and how does the cast support each other?

“This musical in particular is very emotional as we watch many of our characters perish in the tragedy, so running the show repeatedly, especially during tech week, can be difficult and draining.  Our cast is especially good at being there for each other and lifting each other up when we need it.  This cast is like a family who is always waiting to help you and be a constant support system.”

What is your favorite part about participating in this production?

“My favorite part about being in this production is the people.  They make it all worth it, as I have learned so many things, and created some of my closest friends.  It’s the best environment full of amazing students and teachers who are always there to support us.”
