Congratulations to the cast and crew! Special thanks to Duncan, Jenny, Alexa, Eli, Siena, Ella, Derek and of course my family for all their support and patience over the years.
BETHANY PETTIGREW (DIRECTOR & CHOREOGRAPHER)
2020 Hindsight marks Bethany’s 21st CHS musical, and although things were a bit different this year, she was thrilled to be co-directing and choreographing. Bethany and Tricia have been nominated for numerous Papermill Rising Star Awards and were the recipients of the 2015 award for Best Director for their production of Ragtime. Bethany was lucky enough to enjoy a wonderful career as a Broadway performer but couldn’t be happier or more fulfilled working with the amazing performers right here at CHS. This musical event wouldn’t have been possible without the help of her patient and talented husband Duncan, the amazing and spirited script written by Jenny Turner Hall, and the technical and musical prowess of Jake Ezzo. Bethany and Tricia had a blast thinking outside the box and loved every minute of it. Thank you to all the alumni that donated their time and talent to our production. We are truly a family.

Mr. Ezzo is a GRAMMY nominated choir director at SOMS, where he directs 4 different choral ensembles.

He has also music directed the Youth Productions with InterAct for the past few seasons. A resident of the MAPSO community for 4 years, he can be seen using his talents and passions at Morrow Methodist Church, working on 3D printing projects, and co-coaching the town’s only all girl’s robotics teams. Mr. Ezzo holds a bachelors and masters degree from Westminster Choir College, and resides in Maplewood with his two loving cats Gypsy and Simon.
DUNCAN PETTIGREW (DIRECTOR OF PHOTOGRAPHY & EDITOR)

Duncan was a competitive gymnast and dancer for many years before transitioning to a film and video career. He loved working on this project and was amazed by the talent and passion of the CHS Musical cast and crew. Duncan had a blast helping Tricia and Bethany reimagine these musical numbers for 2020 Hindsight.
