A Superhero Send-Off: Celebrating Nancy Braun’s Final Production at ISP

Theatre plays an important role in our Middle School at ISP, serving as a powerful medium for self-expression and personal growth. Theatre encourages students to step out of their comfort zones, develop their public speaking skills, and work collaboratively with their peers. Through the magic of theatre, students learn to convey emotions, tell stories, and connect with audiences in meaningful ways.

 

In the Spring of 2024, our community enjoyed a fantastic evening watching the Middle School play, ‘A Catchphrase Catastrophe: A Superhero Story!’ The students delivered outstanding performances in this vibrant, superhero-themed comedy, showcasing their incredible talent and hard work.

 

This special production also marked a significant milestone, as it was Nancy Braun's final play at ISP. Since 2000, Ms. Braun has been writing and directing original plays for our Middle School students, addressing the need for age-appropriate, engaging, and humorous theatre for this age group. Her creativity and dedication have provided countless students with the opportunity to explore the performing arts, build confidence, and create lasting memories.

 

As we celebrated ‘A Catchphrase Catastrophe: A Superhero Story!’, we also celebrated Ms. Braun's legacy at ISP. After a well-deserved standing ovation, Ms. Braun gracefully closed the curtain on her incredible journey with us. Her impact on our students and community is immeasurable, and we are immensely grateful for her 24 years of service.
