Individually, Senior Kaseten Welch was honorable mention all-star cast and sophomore Damiana Peters was all-star cast. Great job to the entire cast and crew of All My Sons and Director Lana Tillman. Thank you to our ten seniors for their leadership! We are officially one of the best four plays in Class 2A in the state of Texas! 🚀🎭🚀
