Another triumph on stage at Topeka High’s Hoehner Auditorium tonight. Directors Sally Glassman (1983) and Jennifer Walker (2008) put on an amazing variety show featuring talent spanning 80 years.
Brady Miller’s (1999) laser light show provided a stupendous finale to the evening and a year of celebrating the THS 150th anniversary.
Many thanks to all who participated and made this an evening to remember.
Hoy! Hoy!
