CHS's wonderful production of Ragtime garners 15 Rising Star award nominations
Congratulations to the Ragtime company! You bring honor to Columbia! And good theatre, too!
I brought some Summit people to see Ragtime (Summit High always snags multiple Rising Star nominations and is a frequent winner). They were sufficiently blown away by our production.
Since Columbia is nominated for best production, they will get to perform at the awards show on June 2nd. It will be an exciting night! Best of luck (or break legs!). It is indeed an honor to be nominated, but I'm sure we will come away with a few trophies!
It was an amazing production ..just wishing for the best on June 2 to all those receiving nominations .
Hope you are all flying high .. Your hard work is well rewarded .
