Talent Show 2007 Order your Talent Show DVD by mail with this form An awesome show deserves many thanks! The APT Talent Show 2007 has come and gone but the memories of the show and the talented students at Lake Forest High School live on. The show began with a comedic/musical number with Jim Peddle (who knew he could sing?) and Billy Geraghty, with special appearances by Coach Chuck Spagnoli, Kim Bagnoli, and LFHS students as they reenacted a typical arrival at LFHS. The many acts that followed once again demonstrated that Lake Forest High School has quite a variety of talent. One of the most frequent comments we hear is how professional the show appears. The reason for this is due to the technical skills of Brad Balonick, Dave Miller and their well trained crew of students led by Mark Miller and Grant Klugman who create seamless act changes on stage with professional lighting, sound and special effects on a set designed by Alicia Barker. This year we also had a Pit Band of very talented musicians led by David Blowers and Mark Miller who kept the show quickly moving during act changes. Sarah Quon and Paige Ryder choreographed and organized a charming Senior Act that worked with the theme of the show. Danny Chapman’s logo design for “Party All the Times” adorned our program and T-shirts. Our student photography crew led by Sarah Wagener with Brianna Bagnoli and Lindsey Felzen worked with professional photographer Gunnar Soderlind of Agile Photography in Lake Bluff to visually document the many hours of rehearsal and performance that goes in to making a great show.

Behind the scenes Susie Lape our Student Producer and Matt LaVitola our Student Director dedicated innumerable hours to creating this show. We all wish the best next year to Producers Trevor Wellington and Matt Svec, Directors Kate Pabich and Connor Reaumond. We hope they can find MC’s as creative as Noel Brennan, Graham Hoke, Mike Kopsick, Matt LaVitola, Kevin McKechney, Matt Russell, David Saginur and our guest celebrity Mr. Stan Eaton. Thanks to all our parent volunteers who helped the students put this show together. Cindy Ryder, Leeni Ellis, Daria Andrews, Lisa Dietrich, Pam Russell, Kathy Petray, Melinda Kribben, Gunnar Soderlind, Suzanne Dobbins, Sally Burns, Cindy Dell, Carolyn Geldermann and Jamie Vandenberg. We also appreciate the support of the APT Board. The LFHS Administration led by Jay Hoffmann who gave their support along with school staff members including Monica Wertz, Linda Cahill, Joy Murawski, Thomas Bledsoe and all the Deans who helped monitor back stage activity. Kathy Casper and Louise Ries were the best Assistant Producer and Director we could have hoped for and to be a part of the 2007 Talent Show family. We wish them the best of luck next year and hope that all the students out there are thinking of ways they can contribute to Talent Show 2008.
