LVR students have attended this well known festival for 18 years. This year students will once again participate in this inspiring event, held in Vernon April 23-25. Check out http://www.goodwillshakespeare.ca for more information. Auditions for the Shakespeare play will be held in late December. A senior student, Erin Murray, has written a short play in Shakespearean verse called, Waiting at Pearson Station, which she, along with the help of Zac Evans, will direct. Kudos to Erin for her creative initiative and inspired play.
