to shine in ways that other traditional plays or concerts cannot,” Layer said. “Each year, the Madrigal evolves and adapts to showcase the students’ unique talents, from the artwork to the acting. I was particularly proud of this year’s performance, with it being our first live production since the last Madrigal in November of 2019. I believe it was quite fitting that the show was set as a royal feast to celebrate the spring season’s rebirth because that is truly the nature of what has happened for our performers. I look forward to many more to come.”
