Hello, Dolly! Cast

I've been involved in the fine arts since I was six, and I've done drama for years. I started on piano, always loved singing, and later started on the flute. Now I can play five instruments, but my focus is voice. Being in drama I've received the opportunity to play many different roles, but I have to say my favorite show so far is State Fair. Playing Margy Frake, I started to take voice lessons which I have continued. I plan to further study music (and English) at WSU, and my experience at Sunrise is something for which I am beyond grateful.

I have loved being a part of Sunrise Drama all throughout my years here. I have been blessed to be directed by the best- Abby Hannaford, Dean Owens, and my dear old dad, Keith Kelley. I have enjoyed working with my fellow students, both on stage and off. Some of my favorite memories have been from times hanging out backstage with fellow cast and crew members. I will definitely miss my time in Sunrise Drama and am thankful that God has given me so many opportunities in this program.

I have been involved in every drama possible since 4th grade. I started out as a little in "Fiddler on the Roof" and have since have gotten involved in drama in any way I can including running fundraising events or playing in the orchestra. Of all the shows I have been a part of, "Singing in the Rain" was my favorite. I love everything about drama: the singing, acting, dancing, and more than anything I love all the people I get to work with. My favorite hobby is music. I can play six instruments and I am always ready to learn a new one. I am a singer and instrumentalist in my church's praise team, and I have even written a few songs to use in our worship set.

Music has a been a huge part of my life ever since I could walk. I have been involved in the school choir since 6th grade and the drama productions since 8th grade, both of which I am extremely grateful for. I am also an active member of the National Honor Society. I have had the amazing privilege of singing in the two-time Jester-award-winning quartet for the shows "The Music Man" and "State Fair." My favorite shows I have done so far have been "You're A Good Man, Charlie Brown!" and "State Fair," and I am excited to be a part of "Hello, Dolly!" for my Senior year. After high school, I plan to attend a university in the fall to major in Biology.

My name is Kaitlyn Lumbert, and I have enjoyed participating in drama throughout my life at Sunrise. I am very thankful for the wonderful theater community that has developed and the opportunity God has given my friends and me to use our talents on stage. Along with theater, I also run track and cross country, and compete in debate, forensics, Lifesmarts, Model United Nations, and mock trial. I am active in my church and President of National Honor Society, and I am planning on pursuing journalism, criminal justice, or political science in college.

Alysha Keck is a sophomore who enjoys reading, dancing, and cheering. She loves being involved in theater, whether onstage or backstage. Ever since her older siblings started to participate in drama, Alysha has liked the idea of joining in as well. Her first show was The King and I at Sunrise when she was in kindergarten. Since then, she has been involved in several CYT and Sunrise shows. She is so thankful that she has the opportunity to be a part of something that brings joy to others and glorifies God.

Hey, this is Zach Garraway. I've been doing drama since the 6th grade, and have been involved with every SCA production since! My favorite show that I've been a part of so far was "The Music Man." Drama has held a dear place in my heart and is the highlight of each and every school year! I've made many friends and created memories that will last a life-time because of the drama program. Other than drama, my other hobbies include playing guitar, singing, bowling, and hanging out with friends. I'm really excited about being Ambrose Kemper in our production of "Hello Dolly" this year, and I hope you all enjoy it!
