The Jonathan Law Drama Club is making final preparations for its Hollywood Showcase on December 13 and 14.

This showcase is a fun way for the members to show off all of their talents and their love for what they do. The Drama Club has been working hard and is excited to invite everyone to come and watch.

“We have been meeting up every Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday from 3-6:30 p.m. which is such a short amount of time,” Junior President Chris Serrano said. “The club has been extremely dedicated to making a great production. Starting early this week, we have entered Tech Week, going from 5-9 p.m.”

This club has delivered a well-thought out showcase for this weekend and is thrilled to present it to the students and families of Law. The production will showcase scenes from “Barbie,” “Grease,” “The Breakfast Club,” and more.

“I came up with the idea of a Hollywood Showcase because I wanted to do something that would appeal to a wide range of people and I wanted to stay away from Broadway musicals,” Director Olivia Rivera said. “I also didn’t want to do a specific holiday or season like we did last year with the Spooky Showcase and because families are already attending so many winter and holiday concerts this month.”

Rivera wanted to include movies and plays that all audience members would love and relate to in some way.

“We are able to choose songs from the classics like ‘The Wizard of Oz,’ songs from movies that parents and grandparents grew up loving like ‘Dirty Dancing,’ and songs from newer movies like ‘Barbie,’” Rivera said. “There’s something for everyone in the showcase.”

Club members all had such a fun time learning and working together leading up to the showcase. Some members have been in Drama Club since they were freshmen and are excited to show off their talents in their last showcase before their spring musical.

“It’s definitely sad because I like working with all of the underclassmen that have been with me since the start,” senior Sarah Gutierrez said. “But at the same time as all of this, it is cool to see all of the growth and also I get to leave something to the people after me and I’m excited to see what the program turns into.”

Senior Tori DePoto said she is excited for the show but not ready for her Drama Club career to end.

“It’s definitely bittersweet,” senior Tori DePoto said. “I’m excited to get out and graduate but this is the one thing I’ve been doing since freshman year. I’m excited for it to actually be a show.”
