It’s been an exciting year in the Visual and Performing Arts at Justin-Siena! Here’s a snapshot of the exciting events we’ve produced: In October, Justin-Siena presented the premiere of Patrick William’s adaptation of Shakespeare in The Comedy of Romeo and Juliet...kinda sorta. Our music department presented two concerts in the first semester. The instrumental concert, Movies, Games & TV Themes, was an exploration of 60 years of thematic music which included audience participation. Our annual winter choral concert once again took place in the beautiful chapel at Mont LaSalle. Entitled All on a Silent Night, it featured new arrangements of holiday classics from our Choir, Advanced Choir, and section leaders. In January, our comedy improv team took to the field in The ComedySportz High School League, now in its 9th year. This year’s competition also included a hilarious match between the seniors and the faculty, with the seniors defeating their teachers. On February 8th, more than fifty students wrote, rehearsed, designed and performed The 24-Hour Plays, seven original 10-minute scripts created and performed in only 24 hours! Alumni participated as mentors.
