SWR WHAM Fans

Our 1st Annual Theater Arts Senior Night was a tremendous success, thanks to the efforts of our new WHAM executive board members! Michelle Holfester & Jen Larsen transformed the cafeteria to a true celebration space: featuring a red carpet entrance, tables decorated with balloons and framed play posters of all the shows the seniors had performed in, a beautiful & bountiful buffet, backdrop for photos and even karaoke! 14 seniors along with their parents and underclassmen theater friends enjoyed a fun evening, where apps, desserts and memories were shared. Each senior was gifted with a custom designed tote bag to commemorate their theater experience in SWR. We wish all of our Class of 2026 Theater Arts students the best in their future pursuits!
