Forget-Me-Not Fall

By Quincy Fulton and Zoe Hong

The Lincoln theater department transported students, families, and teachers to Forks Washington during this year's talent show to prove if Lincoln's got talent. Between theater’s intermittent Twilight-themed sketches, notably including a skit of Edward Cullen stopping a prop car, Lincoln students showed a variety of impressive abilities. Singing, dancing, piano, inspirational speeches, comedy, and more graced the stage to provide for a showstopping night of entertainment. Numerous student duets, such as Kennedy Byrne & Angelina Gin with “Man or Muppet,” Kai Evangelista & Steven Sanchez with “Until I Found You,” and Brienna Tsui & Sofie Hwang with “Love is an Open Door” beautifully harmonized. Musical ensembles, including the Gigglemutts, Coyote Country, and The ALHS Jazz Combo blew the audience away with their renditions of classics. Every dance performer—of varied styles and music—such as Sophie Ng, Moyses Aguirre, and the groups Korescence and ALDC was synchronized and magnetic. It was clear how much effort was put into the individual performances, and smiles, laughter, and confidence radiated from the stage’s every show of artistry. Every person involved in putting the show on or performing put in effort, blood, sweat and tears. These efforts were evident from the enjoyable results.
