Saving Christmas from the Wicked Wazzu took center stage of the Paws Up Bull Barn last Wednesday, Dec. 20, as the Sunset School put on a play to emphasize uniqueness and holiday laughs.
The 11-student cast put on Santa and Wicked Wazzu by Tim Kelley. Toni Hatten, Sunset School supervising teacher, said the students have been working on the play since the start of October.
"We begin reading it out loud as a class, multiple times, trying to figure out which role would be the best student's capability and personality," Hatten said. "Tonight's performance takes priority and energy. Attendance and dedication are critical to the success of the play."
In the play, Santa and Mrs. Claus are met by an irregularly-tall Leprechaun, who wants to find a place to stay at the North Pole. The Clauses are then attacked by the Wicked Wazzu and her henchmen. But the leprechaun saves the day with magical powers.
Afterwards, the students sang Christmas Carols. Hatten thanked Erin Cunningham and Brian Halwerda for music, Tessa Stevens for the costume and hair, Ashley Mitchell for the fireplace set and The Resort at Paws Up for letting the school use its barn.
