She Loves Me, the Woodbridge High School 2018 spring musical, was held in the auditorium on March 22nd to the 25th. The show was put together by staff, students, and a professional pit band.

Mr. Lynch, the director, put together a productive crew to execute the level of quality the musical has to offer. “I chose She Loves Me for a few reasons,” he said. “It is first-class material, and a really wonderful show with a good story, vivid characters, and brilliant songs. Next, I feel that the talents of many of our WHS performers are a perfect match with the characters of this play.”

She Loves Me is a romantic comedy about two co-workers who have never liked each other, but end up falling in love without realizing it. The musical certainly has meaning to Mr. Lynch, who said, “It has been so enduring that audiences keep falling in love with it in all its different adaptations; this was one of the best musicals ever to be held!”  

“Our audiences loved watching George and Amalia, the two lead characters,” Mr. Lynch. “Also, other actors who were loved by the crowd were Maggie Aube, Jeremiah Reodica, Samantha Ferrante, Eric McKenzie, Jeff Smith, and Daniel Nebtity. Caleb Santos, James Brown, and all the rest of the cast of more than 30 WHS students have taken part in the action, as well.”

 Many of the actors in the play were able to relate to their character in different aspects. Jeremiah Reodica, senior, who played George Nowack, said he was a hard worker like his character. He went on to mention the challenges he faced saying, “The only thing that is hard is thinking of what your character would do in specific moments as well as remembering lines.”

          This year’s play was the last for many, since most students involved are seniors. Gabby Jones, a senior who plays a snobby customer and is also in the ensemble, said, “It was hard to not be sad about this being my last musical at WHS, but all of us seniors want to put on the best last show to inspire kids in the audience to join theater.”

Overall, this year’s senior play had an outstanding run. Woodbridge looks forward to the successful production of future plays put on by the drama department.
