Griffin Gazette: 

LAHS Dance puts on a jaw-dropping performance on opening night

Joshua Lopez Hernandez, Staff Writer with the LAHS Griffin Gazette reviews the stunning set, clothing designs and astonishing dancers: “An Unfortunate Chain of Events” as a show to be remembered. Read the full article here.

LAHS’ dance program presented us with a stunning show in the first week of May. The all-original story-line was a fun and heartwarming story about friendship and self-acceptance.

Layla Miller, played by LAHS senior Gracie Adame, was stuck in a time loop full of bad fortunes. From her phone getting destroyed, being late to class and failing a pop quiz, her dance audition flopping and even her boyfriend cheating on her. After she walked through a red door that appeared randomly, Layla repeated the day and found herself trying to make it run smoothly; she attempted to try and change the type of person she is, in order to escape. From being overly nice to full of anger; this, of course, does not work out in her favor. She realizes that being jealous of others is not going to get her anywhere and just decides to be herself.

The beautifully colored set, oranges and greens, combining well with the performers’ costumes. (Joshua Lopez Hernandez)
The dance program’s sheer commitment, dedication and drive that went into this show is truly inspiring. Countless hours of practice and technique and several rehearsals, all paid off in the end with the amount of positive feedback from the audience. Colorful and visually pleasing sets added to the mood of the unfolding story.
