Senior Collin Mayo says,” I love the fall play because it gives you the opportunity to grow with people outside your grade.” Getting to be with people everyday for thousands of hours gives you a chance to become closer with people you would have never met. The play is a good way to also get out of your comfort zone. For example Senior Audrey Meece says, “ If I would have never done the play I would not be in the same place speaking wise.”
