The Maricopa High School Theatre Company’s second annual Miscast Cabaret last week was a fund-raiser to send qualifying performers to the International Thespian Festival in June. Those who qualified earlier this year to go to Nebraska with highest marks for their pieces in competition were Taryn Story, singing the solo “Hold On,” Britney Montgomery, singing the solo “No One Else,” Antonio Gonzales and Collin Martin, duo acting in “Cat on a Hot Tin Roof,” and Ivie Keene, Aidyn Curtis, Kjirsten Lemon, Taryn Story, Rachel Knight, Chaienne Zoller and Britney Montgomery, singing the group musical “Big Spender.” The girls performed the number for the Cabaret, but the boys sang and danced their own version, as well.
