Ella Ekstrom participates in the One Act Festival

2015 Apr 16

Over forty students participated in the One Act Festival, an annual arts event that takes places over two days in the spring. This year, the students put on eleven short plays on April 9th and 10th in The Cressey Center for the Arts. Ella performed as Mary in the play Family Problems by LFA student Kristin Chivers.

Many of the plays were original work created by the students themselves. Mark Dryfoos, Director of Performing Arts at LFA, expresses his excitement at working with such talent. He says that the event " is a great opportunity for the directing students to act as director and to show their work to an audience." He commends Ella's dedication to the performing arts.
