Crew Chief

Mr. Christian La Salle

Mr. La Salle has been assisting the DRRHS Theatre Co.'s director for the past 16 years in building and supervising the building of sets and props. Although the title "Crew Chief" does not technically exist in theatre, a former student once called him "Chief" and the name stuck. Mr. La Salle also teaches at DRRHS and always looks forward to the school's productions and never fails to be amazed at the talent, determination, and pure joy exhibited by the theatre students.
