Congratulations to the cast and crew of “The Little Mermaid” on an incredible four-day performance last week and weekend. The show was an all-fins-on-deck event, with performers from all four campuses taking the stage or helping behind-the-scenes.
For anyone who wasn’t able to get a seat, or for those who need a reminder on who to congratulate for their efforts, please enjoy the program below. Congratulations to all! And please visit this link, which takes you to a beautiful gallery of photos taken by senior Katie Sollee ’22.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank the amazing Bolles community for their efforts on behalf of our show. First and foremost, we need to thank our cast and crew families.
