The CRSM 2024 winter drama production has been a labor of love, with about 60 students contributing their time and energy to bring it to life. “Cinderella Wore Combat Boots” is on the CRSM stage for 3 performances: Thursday, December 5th- Friday, December 6th- and Saturday, December 7th.
One of the unique aspects of this production is its audience participation. From dancing and singing along, to helping the prince evade the stepsisters, and even serving as “emotional support” to help Cinderella and the prince communicate, the audience plays an active role throughout the performance.
The play selection began last April, with CRSM Math teacher, Mr. Appel and English teacher, Ms. Partenach choosing the perfect piece for the winter season. By the first week of school, Ms. Partenach was meeting with the production team to design the set and prepare for auditions, which took place in the second week of school. Since then, the cast and crew have been rehearsing non-stop to create this engaging, interactive show.
