Pioneers of Flight
“I have been an administrator for eight years now, and I have reserved the CLO Gallery of Heroes Musical production each year. I always know that when I make the decision to reserve a production, the quality of each production will be magnificent. The actors and actresses always put forth a tremendous amount of energy in their performance and are very friendly during the Q&A session. The staging, costuming, background and sound production is always done in a professional manner. Our students are always attentive and engaged in the storyline.”Mark Grgurich, Principal, Bishop McDowell Regional School
