Springfield Middle School’s EPIC Players will present Elf
Jr., the musical, on Friday and Saturday, Dec. 14-15 in the school auditorium.
Directed and coached by Lisa Owensby, Vanessa Waller, Rusty
Riddle and Casandra Goostree, scholars, representing all grades, have
been practicing all semester for these three performances during the two-day
programming.
Dr. Grant Bell, SMS principal, is justifiably proud of the
accomplishments of his scholars.
“The EPIC Players are members of the Springfield Middle
School and Innovation Academy Drama Club,” he said. “The club consists of about
forty scholars in grades six through eight. As part of a STEAM Magnet program,
the Arts is an integral part of the complete curriculum. Last year, scholars’
debut performance was Disney’s Mulan Jr. We invite you to join us this year as
we present the holiday musical Elf Jr.
