CHIPOLA’S A CHRISTMAS CAROL WINS EXCELLENCE AWARD

The Chipola College Theatre production of ‘A Christmas Carol: The Musical’ received an Excellent rating from the Florida College System Activities Association. 

The respondent who evaluated the show praised, “The directors did a wonderful job directing the show. They had to work with a huge cast of children, community volunteers, college employees and students. They did an amazing job of uniting everyone to work together as a team to complete a complicated task. The audience the night I saw the show had a great time and leapt to their feet to award the cast with a standing ovation as soon as the curtain call started. I love coming to see plays at Chipola College, it is the best space with the best people.”

Two students were awarded special recognition pins for their performance: Alijah Dorsla (Ghost of Christmas Present) and Maison Dickson (Mrs. Fezziwig).  Two members of the technical team were also awarded special recognition for flying: Levi Schreffler and Creed Chance.
