Praise for Claque Attack: a clapping contemplation on the nature of applause

Good Shepherd Episcopal School
Directing and producing this play with 8th grade students was challenging and fun. The Claque had to get way out of their comfort zone, but ended up loving the makeup as a mask. Our design team truly enhanced the experience with projects, sound, and lights.
