Whitehurst Pre-K Presents The Jungles of PreKania

Students in the Whitehurst Campus Pre-Kindergarten presented The Jungles of PreKania on May 2 in McGehee Auditorium. The play’s plot involved the King of “PreKania” holding a talent show among the animals and declaring all of them winners at the conclusion of the contest. He explained to the puzzled animals that each one of us is special, we are all talented, and though we may be different, we all have something to offer. The theme tied into the School’s new brand- All Things Possible. Original songs performed in the play were “Gotta Be Me”, “Everybody’s Good at Something”, and “That Makes the World Go ’Round”.

The play was written and directed by Michael Fritton, with original music by Andrea Duke, the backdrop was created by the students under the direction of Helen Meatte, and Andy Payne assisted with lighting design and stage set-up.
