She is constantly blown away not only by the talent of the students, but more importantly their care for one another and creating a quality theatrical production. Ms. Sumrall is so excited for you to see the product of their hard work. "Matilda" is a show perfectly balanced with comedy, nostalgia, and a lot of heart. Enjoy!

Grace Gstell
You won’t see Grace on stage, but instead scurrying around with a headset backstage. Matilda is her second show with Raptor Players, but not overall! She was the narrator in both of her elementary plays. Riveting, right? She’d like to thank the countless Home Depot runs and her sawdust-covered wardrobe for making this show come to life! Oh, the cast and crew, too. They’re great. Enjoy the show!

She would like to thank the amazing cast and crew for being such hard workers and Ms. Sumrall for always letting her go to Home Depot. She’d also like to give a special shout out to Dr. Pepper and Hostess cupcakes for their constant love and support throughout this process. Enjoy the show (especially the sound effects)!
