FASHIONISTA’s amused the audience in Little Theater during Student Arts Week with lots of laughter. The show came to a grand finale on June 15.
“We struggled because the casts kept missing, but I’m glad the show came to a closing,” said Bradley-James Xavier Alemao, who played Narcissus. This character was hunting for love.
After a car accident and sickness, some cast had to give up their lead, but the whole team, both the actors and crews, managed to keep the show going.
Larissa Pingley, who played Echo, said: “This is the last performance, and it was absolutely perfect, more than we could’ve expected.”
She said this was her first time acting. Because Pingley does vocal music, she has no difficulty in self-expression in any form.
“We had four performances in total, but there was a lot of changes through them. I think we did an excellent job fixing all the issues that came along the way,” said Logan Matlock, who played both Rylan MacDonald and Reflection.
