Archmere's Winter Musical "the Drowsy Chaperone" Receives Acclaim
The Cappies, "Critics and Awards Program," is a program through which high school theater and journalism students are trained as critics, attend shows at other schools, write reviews, and publish those reviews in local newspapers such as The Washington Post, Cincinnati Enquirer, Dallas Morning News, Kansas City Star, and The Philadelphia Inquirer. The Cappies program brought over 40 students from the Greater Philadelphia area to Archmere this past weekend to review the winter musical production, “The Drowsy Chaperone”.
The visiting students all wrote reviews of the show, and the top four are published on the Greater Philadelphia Cappies Website. Click here to read the top four Cappies reviews: Archmere Cappies Reviews
