LaGuardia has given students like me the chance to work in a ceramics studio, create sculptures, and make prints. I could have never imagined working with any of those various mediums, but thanks to LaGuardia and the Alumni & Friends of LaGuardia, that dream is made possible for every student in this school, and for generations to come.” – Keren Marshall (LaG ‘17), recipient of the M&A Class of 1945 Award “Thank you for recognizing my work and bringing me closer to my goals. Your award has given me a push forward in a time of self doubt and has inspired me to work my hardest and never give up on myself. I hope to one day make you as proud of me as I am of myself, and I strive to one day prove to you how much this means to me using more than just words.” – Monica Caicedo (LaG ‘19), recipient of the Sheila Stember Art Award “As life has moved on since graduation, I find that having had the M&A experience has contributed GREATLY to my life.

How did it compare? Was it as good? Deep breath now. Yes, it was. In fact it's outstanding and maintains the quality shows the theatre group has presented all year. MARY POPPINS is the musical you want to see before Christmas when Bert, not Santa, comes down your chimney. Director, Phil Anstis, has unleashed a show full of vibrancy, joy and colour. His is an assured production, directed with love for the original. Mary Poppins (Val Andrew) enters the dysfunctional Banks family and it's never the same. She sorts out the kids more quickly than Maria did with the Von Trapps. But then she has magic in her fingers and a Lamborghini in her larynx that Julie Andrews would love to repossess. If there's a star it's chimney sweep Bert (Tyrell Beck). He's the glue that holds the show together. He's loveable, flamboyant and dances with the athleticism of a young Gene Kelly.
