Extremely excited to see Mr Yanek on the stage!

⭐️DAY SIX OF CAST SPOTLIGHTS!!!⭐️

🎭 Meet Ray Yanek, our Felix Geisel!
Ray is making his VP debut—and his stage debut—as Felix Geisel in The Game's Afoot. When he's not rehearsing, Ray enjoys reading, creative writing, and spending time with his cats.
Ray's favorite part of the production has been the people. He says, "I love working with the cast and crew—so talented, welcoming, supportive, and so fun. I could not have asked for a better first stage experience." We're thrilled that Ray chose VP for his first production, and we couldn't have asked for a better addition to the cast. He has been fantastic to work with, and audiences are going to love watching him bring Felix Geisel to life as the mystery unfolds!

THE GAME'S AFOOT opens on August 6th and runs through August 9th. All performances are at 7 PM with doors opening at 6.

Shout out to current student, Lauren Snyder. Lauren dives into any theatre production she can. So much talent!!!

⭐️DAY THREE OF CAST SPOTLIGHTS!!!⭐️

🎭 Meet Lauren Snyder, our Aggie Wheeler!
Lauren is returning to the VP stage for her seventh production and has appeared in 17 shows overall. When she's not performing, Lauren enjoys playing the trumpet—a talent that brings its own special kind of music and creativity to her life.
Lauren's favorite part of The Game's Afoot is the intricate detail woven throughout the show. She loves how everything is so carefully connected, with each piece adding to the next and making the story even more interesting. With all the twists, turns, and surprises this mystery has to offer, Lauren is excited to bring Aggie Wheeler to life and help audiences discover how all the pieces fit together!

Congrats to Mr Tyne for a hilarious opening night yesterday at Stage 212’s production of The Drowsy Chaperone . Mr Tyne had to step in for a role due to a cast member being in the hospital. We teach students to be flexible and to be ready, and that is exactly what Mr Tyne demonstrated. Bravo!
