NC’s esteemed theater department spent numerous hours rehearsing and perfecting their inaugural virtual performance. The talent of cast and crew members combined with hard work and dedication resulted in a successful show that viewers can access on March 11th and 12th. “Virtually rehearsing was strange, I’m so used to being on a stage or being backstage that being in my own home was a new experience. It was still very fun and I felt less anxious and pressured because instead of performing in front of an audience, I got to perform in front of my friends and I had a lot of fun,” Tonge said.
