This year’s Spring play is quickly approaching as Sister Act will be performed on March 23-24 at 7:00 p.m. and March 25 at 2:00 and 7:00 p.m. Tickets are $10 per person and will be sold at the auditorium doors before the show times begin.
The cast has been working really hard to get this play ready. They practice after school every Monday through Friday, fine-tuning their lines, songs, and dances.
So, are they excited? Let us find out.
Analise Gonzalez (sophomore): “I auditioned because I had nothing else to do. I thought it would be fun, and the character I auditioned for is Mother Teresa. I’ve been in it since November. This is my first year in the play, and so far, I really like it. I’m looking forward to next week and future plays.”
Rebecca Fagiani (junior): “I auditioned because I’ve been into theater ever since I was seven, and it’s always been a way for me to express myself and who I am. In this year’s play, I play sisters Mary Patrick and Michelle, and I chose to join the play because I love doing it with my friends. It’s always a fun time and leaves me with many memories. I’m ready!”
Many seniors in the pit as well as the cast and crew are feeling bittersweet about Sister Act being that it will be the final play of their high school careers. They have put forth so much effort throughout high school to produce fun and entertaining plays.
Lock in a date for next week to watch this performance LIVE!

Finally, the Brooklyn School students are reading a lot! The new book vending machine is a hit for the younger students. Hopefully, students will continue to stay motivated to keep reading so they can be a “Reader of the Month” and get the chance to receive a new book.
Below are the “Readers of the Month” for February. Keep up the good work!
Have a great week, Brooklyn, and on Friday, Happy Saint Patrick’s Day!
