“We could not be more excited for these performances,” said RCS Middle School Music Teacher and MS Drama Club Co-Director, Casey Kobylar. “These students have truly dedicated themselves to creating a close-knit community amongst the cast and crew, allowing them to work together better and excel as they rehearsed and prepared. I am unbelievably proud of this group of students for all of their hard work and dedication to these performances and each other.” 

The musical, Disney’s Frozen JR., follows the story of Princesses Anna and Elsa as they face an exciting journey, challenges, new beginnings, and new friends! Focusing on the theme of friendship and family, this musical will warm your heart while immersing you in the setting's icy conditions and snowy companions. You will not want to miss this show!! 

This year the performances will take place once again on the High School Stage, giving students a great opportunity to improve their thespian skills in the full theater setting. The Middle School Drama Club is incredibly thankful for all of the support from the students, staff, parents, volunteers, and community members that have helped make the show a success! 

Last but certainly not least, a huge thank you goes out to the Co-Directors, Ms. Kobylar and Ms. VanDerheyden, for all of their dedication and support for our students.
