The first 2 articles were written by Liz Gross, and the other first place review was written by Emma Hudson, (with Liz coming second).

The Cappies is a critics and award program for high school English and journalism students, who write reviews of student theatrical productions.  The students are trained on how to critique a play and attend at least three productions a year.  The best three are published in the Today section of the St. Catharines Standard.
