glencoeanchor.com life & arts the glencoe anchor | September 20, 2018 | 23 Students collaborate to produce 80th Lagniappe show Hilary Anderson Freelance Reporter The longstanding tradition continued when Lagniappe-Potpourri, New Trier’s annual variety show, began the school’s performing arts season and marked its 80th year of the all-student-run production. It played for a delighted audience last week from Wednesday- Saturday, Sept. 12-15, at the Winnetka campus in the Gaffney Auditorium. This year’s theme for Lagniappe Potpourri 2019 was “Enjoy the Ride.” Approximately 135 students last spring began the production process of writing the show along with designing and building sets, choreographing, composing music, auditioning performers, and marketing it. Nina Lynn, a New Trier teacher, served as the head person for the production. “This year’s student leadership board has been particularly collaborative and thought about the entire process,” Lynn said. “The result is a particularly well-structured show and good experience for everyone involved.” The theme, “Enjoy the Ride,” was a fun look at how fast four years can go for an incoming freshman. It cleverly tied-in comments about the school’s new stairway versus the old stairway, referring to the changes that have taken place since the recent additions and renovations at New Trier. There were spoofs on situations that may have happened during students’ advisery and other classes such as “getting to know A skit called “Holiday” was performed during Lagniappe-Potpourri, which ran Wednesday-Saturday, Sept. 12-15, at New Trier’s Winnetka campus. Photos by Rhonda Holcomb/22nd Century Media you sessions,” no technology times and worrying about getting a paper printed in time that was due for the next class. A true-to-life skit about distractions that tend to occur during test-taking times brought applause. Former New Trier graduates would laugh at the New Trier senior “old people’s home.” Another musical number was about New Trier being the land of fame and success. A skit about teacher tweets bought the most laughter. Students wrote fake tweets directed to specific teachers, similar to TV talk show host Jimmy Kimmel’s method. The actual teachers had to read them on camera. “Students videotaped the teachers’ first reaction as they read the tweet,” Lynn said. “That made it even funnier.” Most impressive was the choreography under direction of seniors Lilly Lederer and Nicki Montenegro. Their past dancing and choreography experience showed itself exquisitely in well-orchestrated numbers. “It was difficult getting everyone to understand what we wanted to achieve but in the end it all came together,” said Lederer, who has been choreographing for three years. “We started working on this after getting the music,” Montenegro said. The music was another bright star in the production’s crown. Seniors Alexandra Riedinger and Eli Friedman wrote the music for the show. Riedinger conducted the band and Friedman was co-conductor. “Eli and I traded off writing music,” Riedinger said. The music and dancing were so impressive they could be a separate show entirely on their own merits. It was obvious the band members truly enjoyed what they were doing. Musician Sam Wert could be seen moving with the music even while playing the trumpet. Weillin Feng had a sense of humor and lit up the dark transitions between skits with orange lights on his trombone. Credit goes to the producers of the variety show — seniors Josh Hoffman and Lilly Meehan, who pulled the show together and made it a memorable 80th anniversary production. Both participated in some part of the show during previous years — stage crew, costume crew. “So many of my friends are from the Lagniappe- Potpourri productions,” Hoffman said. “The com- Erin Donohue (left) and Carly Martin perform in an act. The student-run show was the 80th annual production. munity aspect of his show means so much to us.” “I worked behind the scenes for three years and wanted to take this on,” Meehan said. “You spend so much time working towards this goal along with so many friends. It will be sad to leave it when we graduate but the memories will be great. We are celebrating the good times now.”
