Senior Christopher Serrano is the President of the Jonathan Law Drama Club, and has been since his junior year. Staff Reporter Delaney Morrin interviewed Serrano about his final year with the Drama Club.

Delaney Morrin: What made you decide to join the JLHS Drama Club?

Christopher Serrano: I have always had a passion for theater. But, when I came to JLHS, I joined the crew for my first year. It wasn’t until my sophomore year that I decided to audition for the drama production of Mean Girls, where I played Damian! I wanted an opportunity to continue growing as a performer while also becoming part of a community that values creativity and teamwork.

DM: How has Drama Club impacted your time at Law?

CS: Drama Club has been one of the most important parts of my high school experience. It helped me build confidence, develop leadership skills, and create friendships that I know will last long after graduation. Some of my favorite memories from high school came from rehearsals, performances, and the time spent working together.

DM: What are some of your most memorable moments being a part of Drama Club?

CS: One of the most memorable moments from Drama Club was when we performed together as a full cast for the first time at the 2025 Halo Awards. Being able to work in a professional space with people I love, while surrounded by others who share the same passion for theater, is something that is truly unmatched. Another memorable moment was our Drama Club dinner at Colony, where we welcomed incoming members and revealed our fall play. Being able to establish relationships with new members helped us create a stronger community and, in the long run, made Drama Club a place of safety, support, and belonging for everyone.

DM: What legacy do you hope to leave behind as President?

CS: I hope to leave behind a club that understands the importance of theater, not only for themselves, but for their school community and everyone who comes to see our performances. Theater, whether through performing or simply watching, should be a safe outlet where people can express themselves, explore new interests, and build meaningful connections. I want the club to remain a place that feels welcoming and supportive to everyone involved. If future members continue to feel like Drama Club is a place where they belong, I’ll consider that a success.

DM: What is something you will miss about being in this club?

CS: More than anything, I’ll miss the people. The friendships, shared experiences, and sense of family within Drama Club are what make it so special. I’ll also miss the excitement of preparing for productions and the feeling of stepping on stage with a cast and crew who have worked so hard together.
