That is a wrap on another fantastic performance by the Poor House Players. Our Grade 11’s had another fantastic performance! This is truly a collective effort starting with our actors (ALL Grade 11’s students), our directors Mrs. Vos and Ms. Cross, lights/sound - Mr. Tiffin, parents who feed and keep backstage on track, the rest of the Vos family (Lorne helps erect the set, Luc, Abby, and Preston make and serve the popcorn nightly), our Junior Director Rylie Schiebelbein and parents, grandparents, friends, and community who buy tickets to support this program (and get some good laughs in!). THANK YOU! #kindlehearts #igniteminds
