Imagination spent yesterday with Maple School in Northbrook.

Our two casts performed Making Healthy Choices for 8th grade students.

Making Healthy Choices: From nutrition to exercise to substance abuse prevention, Making Healthy Choices promotes safe and informed judgements.

We had a lovely three show day at Eberhart Elementary School.

We performed No Secrets for 3rd through 8th grade students.

And a VERY special shout out to our ensemble member Annalise for their first live No Secrets performance. Well done, Annalise! ⭐️
