The hour-long spectacle was packed with singers, dancers, comedians, a hoola hooper, musicians and actors. It takes courage to perform in front of a room full of people, but if the entertainers were nervous, they didn’t show it.
Some acts were not easily performed in a school gym, so students also brought videos that displayed their talents. A few boys edited short films of their bike and scooter tricks at the skate park.
Since student council presented the show, students played lead roles both on and off stage. Some introduced the acts, others handled music and props, and a few shone spotlights on centre stage performers.
Parents and community members filled the gym to cheer on the performers, who obviously worked hard to prepare their routines. Each act left the stage with their ears ringing from thunderous applause.
There’s no doubt that JES students are talented.
