This year’s talent will include two monologues (Stover and Hamil), singing (Davis) and piano (Themer.) “Life Is a Highway” is the theme of this year’s program, directed by Tiffanie Barnett and Katie Ward. Tickets can be purchased at the door for $5 and all proceeds go to fund scholarships presented to participants. See more information and individual photos in an advertisement inside this edition.
