5: The First Cast
If you do the math, you'll notice that the peak of COVID-19 quarantine fell around my Senior year of high school... which is when Wannabes was supposed to go onstage. It was tough, but with the help and co-direction of other seniors from my cohort, we were able to edit together a virtual production. Editing the audios of fifteen students with various interpretations of rhythm together is no joke... but we did it.
As a result, we got a lot of support from the community back home. Later that school year when hybrid schedule opened up, a chapter of Students Demand Action launched at school, and we were able to facilitate discussion and bring activist work back to school.
