From Chase Vialpando:
"Now as a reporter, I had to give a succinct explanation of the production from a news (albeit feature news) standpoint. On top of space restrictions and the limitations of the Associated Press style of writing, there was little room to give what I felt was deserved by the DHS drama cast and crew: a critique of their work. So without further adieu, here’s a review." Click below for the opinion piece (courtesy photo by Nichole Sullivan):

As a reporter, I covered the Douglas High School’s rendition of Don Zolidis’s “The Single Man” for last week’s newspaper.
