Genesians Fall Auditions for "Guys and Dolls JR."

Calling All Chipmunks,

Considered by many to be the perfect musical comedy, Guys and Dolls JR. follows Salvation Army crusaders and high rollers from the streets of Times Square to Havana and back again. Nathan Detroit, who is permanently engaged to psychosomatic showgirl Miss Adelaide, may be forced to fold Detroit’s Oldest Established Permanent Floating Crap Game unless he wins a bet from slick high roller Sky Masterson. When Sky gambles that he can woo any “doll” Nathan counters that Sky will not be able to convince an upright (but uptight) missionary named Sarah to go to Havana with him. At first, Sarah easily resists the rakish Sky, but eventually both Sky and Sarah teach each other a lesson on winning.

Jenny Mains ’27 – Gaining Hands-On Medical Experience at Yale Archbishop Chapelle High School is thrilled to share the incredible accomplishments of Jenny Mains ’27 , who spent her summer exploring her passion for medicine at the prestigious Envision Medical Program at Yale University. During the week-long program, Jenny had the unique opportunity to gain hands-on experience, learn essential medical skills, and collaborate with some of the brightest students from across the globe. While staying on Yale’s campus, Jenny immersed herself in daily classes, interactive activities, and insightful lectures from doctors and medical professionals. Some of the highlights of Jenny’s experience included: Learning surgical knot tying and suturing techniques. Practicing phlebotomy and determining heart patterns. Participating in real-life crisis simulations with lifelike dolls that mimicked human behaviors such as speaking, breathing, and reacting to medical interventions. Diagnosing and creating treatment plans for simulated patients alongside her peers. Visiting the New York Medical College , exploring its facilities, and enjoying a day trip to New York City. The program combined medical training with fun and engaging activities such as escape rooms , team-building exercises, and public speaking presentations. Jenny and her group worked together to craft diagnoses, present their findings, and develop solutions for complex medical cases. Jenny’s experience at the Envision Medical Program was not only educational but also inspiring. She had the chance to network with peers from diverse backgrounds, learn from experts in the medical field, and strengthen her skills in teamwork, leadership, and critical thinking. We are so proud of Jenny for representing Chapelle with excellence and determination. Her success at Yale is a testament to her hard work and bright future in the medical field.  💚🤍 Way to go, Jenny! We can’t wait to see all the amazing things you’ll accomplish. 🤍💚

Both of the band’s albums, including Emily’s latest, were recorded at the historic Jazz Museum , a testament to their dedication to preserving and celebrating New Orleans' rich musical heritage. Emily’s journey with the band began before she even started high school, as she recorded her first album just before entering 8th grade. Since then, she has continued to grow as a musician, performing in yearly community events , such as their annual Christmas performances. The Next Generation Jazz Band is composed of a mix of talented individuals, including music majors from colleges across the country and a few exceptional high school students like Emily. The band also collaborates regularly with renowned professional jazz musicians, such as Wendell Brunious , Caroline Brunious , Shannon Powell , and Craig Klein , many of whom perform at the legendary Preservation Jazz Hall . These incredible musicians not only perform alongside the band but also share their expertise and musical advice, offering Emily and her peers invaluable learning experiences.
