Meeting fellow members of their house, freshman Brielle Fears, Nathan Phillips, Cooper Haden, and sophomores Addyson Oliver, Luckie Cormier and other Puffs are introduced to their new school for the next seven years. Sophomore Nina Kanumuri said that rehearsals leading up to the show have really helped connections in the cast to form and grow. "(Rehearsals) have helped me bond with the cast when I am not onstage," Kanumuri said. "It really helps with chemistry and I feel really comfortable with everyone. The rehearsals help you bond with people you would not have expected to bond with. I really stepped out of my comfort zone and made a lot of new friends."

I like being improv because as somebody who has English as their second language, improv gives me the opportunity to be more spontaneous when speaking or acting, Tamez said. It helps me in my daily life and in becoming more fluent in English.
