Directors Note

When picking shows for this event, I wanted to pick some shows with ideas that were out of the box and hard to understand/explain just by reading. The real test of the shows is what is taken away after seeing them performed because that is always how Theatre should be judged: not by reading a play but by seeing it performed live in front of you!

Noah Mercedes

The Dreamer
Noah Mercedes - The Dreamer A student interested maths, science, and computers, Noah takes his creative pursuits in the theatrical arts, one part as a way to connect with the community of theatre at Cypress, another part to provide sonder messages that might help a viewer emotionally, but the last, an emotional conduit to express how he feels when nobody is watching. He would like to give credit to the family who has raised him to value curiosity as much as work ethic; the friends who have made him feel invited and belonged; and the various teachers at Cypress who not only give him chances to improve where he falls, but lift him up with insightful words— whether harsh or light. One day, he would like to commit to an occupation that gives back to others— whether on a local or global scope or whether in the technological or emotional. He finds meaning in helping others.
