  • Mary E. Killian, a senior psychology and theater double major, from Roanoke, Va.
  • Eli Q. Lenig, a junior psychology major, from Port Royal, Pa.
  • Kylee A. Lorio, a junior political science and leadership double major with a minor in theater, from Newmanstown, Pa.
  • Christina L. Ludwig, a junior art major, from Strasburg, Va.
  • Steven R. Perry, a sophomore business administration major, from Virginia Beach, Va.
  • Eli W. Quay, a senior communication, technology and culture major, from Bridgewater, Va.
  • Jeffrey L. Roach III, a senior biology major from Elkton, Va.
  • Cristian A. Sanchez, a senior mathematics and philosophy and religion double major, from Jacksonville, Fla.
  • Gabriella B. Signor, a first-year liberal studies major, from Grovetown, Ga.
  • Angela R. Tolomei, a senior theater major, from Hanover, Pa.
  • Shayne M. Williamson, a sophomore communication, technology and culture major, from Ownings Mill, Md.

Victoria L. Callahan, a senior sociology and communication, technology and culture double major with minors in peace studies and theater, from Bloomsburg, Pa., is serving as stage manager.

Holly Labbe, an adjunct in theater at Bridgewater College, is working on costume design. Also working with the production are members of the local community: Shannon Dove on set design and Bridgewater College alumnus Ryan Howard on light design.

Bridgewater College is a private, four-year liberal arts college located in the Central Shenandoah Valley of Virginia. Founded in 1880, it was the state’s first private, coeducational college. Today, Bridgewater College is home to nearly 1,800 undergraduate students.
