Variety Show to Showcase Student Talent

This years variety show will be held Friday, Feb. 8 at 7 pm.
This year’s variety show will be held Friday, Feb. 8 at 7 pm.

The Variety Show is scheduled to be held  on Friday, Feb. 8 at 7 p.m. in the auditorium.

“More than 30 students have auditioned,” judge and show coordinator George Bravos said. “I think that we have so many talented students in our school, it’s crazy.”

This year’s performers include: senior Max Greene, sophomore Lucas Yun, sophomore Valentina Zadro, freshman Alex Gruezo, freshman Natalia Bafia, sophomore Rita Carmona, junior Deanna Alexander, sophomore Riya Kamat, senior Michael Kim, Rock and Roll Club (senior Merrill Miller), junior Zuzu Antonow, and sophomore Paul Kundzicz

“I hope more people show up, because it’s a really cool show. There are a lot of diverse acts, you can see what your peers can do that you may not even know about,” Kundzciz said.

Senior Seema Suleiman, a judge, said she believes in the importance of sharing a talent with others.

“It is another way of showing students and people this is who I am,” she said.

Tickets for the show will be $5 and will be sold on the day of the show. All students, friends and family of performers are welcome.

Dance Marathon member and Variety Show judge, junior Kyle McCaffrey said the proceeds will benefit this year’s charity.

“The money goes to Rustic Falls Nature Camp, a charity that helps kids with disabilities enjoy the outdoors,” he said.

    Is there any information available on the actual acts to be performed? Are they all music-themed, are there comedy sketches, etc.? Or is that all just to be surprises?

      There are different varieties. I don’t know what each act will be, but they are not all going to be songs. I didn’t think it was necessary to put that information up because it seems as if it gave too much away. You should check out the show tomorrow! I’m sure it will be great.
      Thanks for the feedback!

    I’m looking forward to the variety show. There’s so many talented people in this school. The v show is always a good time. Good story, but I think you missed a few names of some performers though.
