The prep, sixth grade and fourth year high school students put up a musical as their tribute to their parents. Once On This Island, written by Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty, is a Caribbean twist on the universal plot of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, as well as H.C. Andersen's The Little Mermaid.
The musical was held at the CAP Auditorium on March 23 with Ciara Beth Bergado as Timoune, Lyndie Lou Isidro as Mama Euralie, John Vincent Calva as Tonton Julian, Almin Larosa as Daniel Beauxhomme, and Vaneza Canosa as Andrea Devereaux. The Gods were played by Connie Luv Jumawid, John Chamberlane Canatoy, Rosannamae Sidlao and Gerard Valiente (Asaka, Agwe, Erzulie and Papa Ge, respectively).
Other cast members included Erlea Mae Ilisan as Little Timoune, Krystelle Mae Saavedra as Little Girl, Benz Gil Petallar as Daniel's Son, Aaron Handugan as Daniel's Father, and Rod Dominic Dagayday as Guard.
The entire number of graduating students rounded up the whole cast making the play seventy-seven strong. Click here for some video clips, or click the video screens to the right.
