WHAT WE DO
Throughout the year the Performing Arts Department has needs on all three campuses relating to performances, equipment, and trips. This volunteer committee raises funds to enhance these programs and works to boost the enthusiastic support for our talented students and faculty who make up the performing arts collectively. All funds raised by the PAB are made possible through Encore Donations and Pizza/Cookie Sales in the Middle and Upper Schools.

The Fall Play
“As You Like It” by William Shakespeare
“As You Like It” by William Shakespeare
In “As You Like It,” witty words and romance play out against the disputes of divided pairs of sisters. Fleeing persecution disguised as a shepherd boy, Rosalind and her cousin escape into the Forest of Arden. There she meets her love, Orlando, and forms a teasing friendship with him. When she reveals herself, several weddings are triggered. The play contains many of Shakespeare’s most famous lines.
