SEQUIM — Sequim High School’s senior class of 2017 brings song, dance and plenty of comedy to the stage for two weekends in “A Holiday Spectacular.”

Shows begin at 7 p.m. today and Saturday and Dec. 16-17 in the Sequim High auditorium, 533 N. Sequim Ave.

Tickets at the door are $8 for adults and $6 for seniors and students with ASB identification.

Ticket sales benefit the SHS senior class of 2017, and concessions help pay for the DJ at the senior class party.

Director Robin Robinson Hall compares the show to a classic television Christmas variety show special.

“A Holiday Spectacular” includes several songs and dances such as “Let It Snow” and skits such as “Elf on the Shelf” and “The 12 Days of Christmas.”

Danica Miller, senior class president, said it has been a fun experience for everyone, including the 22 seniors involved.

“There’s a lot of singing and dancing even though most of us aren’t singers or dancers,” she said.

Performers include seniors Adrienne Haggerty-Hill, Ali Cobb, Andrew Juntilla, Chris Heintz, Colleen Carpenter, Dana Nguyen, Danica Miller, Genevieve King, Karla Najera, Kylie Graham, Hannah Damico, Hilary Holtrop, Jack Dismore, Kylie Graham, Lillian Oden, Mercedes Woods, Mikaela Dodson, Seth Mitchell, Shaun Jones, Silas Baird, Tatum Jensen and Victoria Hall.

Underclassmen include Abygail Mundy, Emily Bundy, Joe Benjamin, Katie Potter, Kianna Miller, Nicholas D’Amico, Keaton King and Danika Chen.

Abby Norman leads choreography.
