KEVIN GLEASON (Set Designer, Lighting Designer, Technical Director) Since 2005 Kevin has been haunting the aisles of the New Canaan High School Auditorium. As we embark on this brave new world we hope that the students will still find joy in building and then "dumpstering" the sets. My appreciation for all the hard work the students do and all the time they give to create these amazing experiences can not be understated. Thank you to everyone that is here with us and welcome to our new friends. Please support the arts.
