Welcome Note
Welcome all! On behalf of the Boston Conservatory at Berklee student directors, we'd like to thank you for joining us this evening. Directing these shows has been an amazing learning experience for all of us and we truly couldn't do this without your support. We would like to thank the Conservatory for giving us this platform to present work outside of the musical theater repertoire that is unique to each of our individual backgrounds. Please enjoy!

Director's Note
“How lucky I am to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard.”
—A.A. Milne (Winnie-the-Pooh)
It is an understatement to say that directing has been a consistent aspiration during my time at Boston Conservatory and I am so grateful for this opportunity to direct alongside my other classmates this semester. I am so incredibly proud of the cast and crew that put in countless hours to take this play off the page and into the space as a living and breathing production. Maybe we always have to say goodbye, but I can not think of a more fulfilling way to culminate my years at this school.
—Nora Hurley, A Brief History of Helen of Troy director
