Coventry Drama Dept. Hosts Their First Annual "Unity Awards"

Last evening I was referred to as a "Drama Mama"!  It was an honor!   My husband and I were lucky enough to host the Coventry High School Drama Department's first annual UNITY AWARDS.

Overseen by Mr. Myke Wilkinson, head of the Drama Dept., and hosted by seniors Leah Eccleston and Ryan Vigneau.  The night was a huge success!  More than 30 drama students including former drama alumni gathered for a night filled with food provided by the students, and music provided by DJ Nick of Musical Madness, Inc., A former Coventry High School Drama Alumni!  For booking:  822-4846.

The students danced, sang solos, duets and group Karoke.  They participated in games and their version of "Project Runway" where the students had to design their own outfits using just two trash bags! 

Closing out an already amazing evening, Mr. Wilkinson presented the students with their awards and the announcement of this year's Fall musical..... HAIR!!
