Auditions for Hays High School’s Spring Play, “Daddy’s Girl,” took place on Wednesday, Dec. 13 and Thursday, Dec. 14. The cast list was then released that Friday, Dec. 15.
The main cast list consists of the following:
Junior Caleb King as Benard
Senior Calvin Moore as Bob
Sophomore Connor Werth as Walter
Junior Elizabeth Noble as Maudie
Junior Addy Brull as Betsy
Senior Atlas Seib as Michael
Junior Jordan Aschenbrenner as Darlynn
Junior Katelyn Willemsen as E. L.
Junior Oscar Flores as Alex
Sophomore Rose Windholz as Daisy
Junior Clare Tholstrup as Violet
Senior Brooke Leiker as Lizzy
Senior Calliope Green as Big Earl Ella
Auditioning were 17 girls and seven boys, but only eight girls and five boys were cast. Because so many people were cut, Bill Gasper, director of the play, said he plans to possibly include side skits that will take place during the play that some of those who weren’t cast could take part in.
The play will be performed March 7-9 at 7 p.m. each evening at 12th Street Auditorium.
“I am probably most excited for the friends and family-like bond that will be made,” junior Addy Brull said. “I also am so excited to work on a comedy show because it’s a new challenge not many of us in cast have done.”
