One week ago, on the first day of December, students committed to Dowling Catholic High School’s Acting+ class gave their first performance of the annual winter play to fourh grade parochial school visitors. This year’s winter play was “The Gift of the Magi,” a timely story of sacrificial love during the Christmas season.
Below are twenty-five photos that capture the actors (plus some of the audience) during the opening performance. The photoed cast includes Alex Aviles, Maggi Doud, Joe Heise, Paul Ouya, Eva Ruggieri, Olivia Stanford, Rachel Talley, Michael Thacker, and the effervescence lead, Franny Umstead.
