As America’s largest student-produced musical, the show engages 150 students from across the University. Of course School of Communication students are very involved as producers and performers—including radio/television/ film major Michael Norman Henry (C12), above, in last year’s Ragtime. There 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 are also engineering students designing sets, music students in the orchestra, and New Year’s Day Winter quarter classes begin economics majors tracking the budget. It’s a big production, with big ideals about giving an opportunity to anyone who wants to participate. 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 For the Dolphin Show and its partner organization, Arts Alliance at Northwestern, each year is a new challenge: an opportunity to stretch, learn, and prepare for the next big thing. Opportunities for greatness are what our students and faculty members are looking for.
