Garden City High School's rendition of “Mean Girls” exceeded all expectations, captivating audiences with its exceptional performances on March 7-9. Prior to the first show, Garden City senior citizens were treated to a delightful complimentary dinner, courtesy of the Garden City Teachers Association. The atmosphere was further enhanced by the delightful melodies of the Garden City High School Jazz Band, under the direction of Daniel Dellamonica. It was an extraordinary afternoon filled with joy and community spirit.

A special shoutout goes to the National Art Honor Society, led by Amanda Marino, for their beautiful hand-painted flower pots as favors, and their invaluable assistance with the raffle prizes. Thanks to the Garden City PTA, 20 lucky winners walked away with gift cards to local Garden City restaurants, adding to the excitement of the afternoon.

Behind the scenes, a dedicated team of faculty and students worked tirelessly to bring the production to life. The faculty production team included Co-Directors and Producers Angela McLaughlin and Katie Sckalor, Vocal Music Director and Choreographer Alexandra Frazzetto, Pit Orchestra Director Andew Albani, and Production Assistant Alyssa Acierno. The student production team consisted of Student-Choreographers Tessa Frascogna, Gabriella Olshefsky and Olivia Vendetti, Stage Manager Izzy Komorowski and Assistant Stage Manager Lauren Kaiserman. The team’s hard work and dedication were evident in every aspect of the performances, which played to more than 2,000 community members during their sold out shows on March 8-9.

From the talented cast to the skilled crew and pit orchestra, every element of the production shone brightly, contributing to the overwhelming success of the event. meangirlsmeangirlsmeangirlsmeangirlsmeangirlsmeangirls
