2021 - 2022 Season in Review
The return to in-person school brought a wave of excitement, allowing us to stage live performances later in the year. Adapting to Rhode Island's COVID-19 gathering guidelines, we shifted our mainstage production from January to March—a decision that worked out wonderfully and one we plan to continue in the future.
This year brought unexpected sorrow as our community mourned the tragic loss of Matthew Dennison, a senior at WWHS, who was fatally injured by a drunk driver. In a heartfelt tribute, our students and staff dedicated the run of the show to Matt and his family. What makes West Warwick truly exceptional is our strong sense of community, and this year, our students united both onstage and off, showcasing the resilience and support that define us.
