I’m so excited to be directing again at the historic Crighton theater, and this time it’s

the musical that started it all for me! This was actually the vest first musical I ever

saw at the age of 5 and launched me on my career in the performing arts.

First off, a huge thank you to Steve and Carolyn Wong, for trusting me with this

show over 2 years ago. None of this would have been possible without you. I am so

thankful to have you both in my life.

I also want to thank this amazing cast and crew I am so blessed at the talent that I

have received from the entire cast and parents of this show. ESPECIALLY during a

pandemic! You are all MAGICAL!

An honorary shoutout to my parents, David and Debbie Preisler. Thank you for

providing bringing the pixie dust to this production! (the flying) You are the best

parents a girl could ask for!

A special thank you to Kara Kowalik and Cricket Pepper and the Rickwalt family for

stepping up and helping organize all the different elements of this production.

Thank you to the Board of Directors of STAGE RIGHT for giving me this opportunity

to direct this show and allowing me to bring some magic to Conroe.

A huge shout out to my sidekicks Cricket Pepper, Layne Roberts and Adam Isbell.

You three have been the best friends and partners a director could ask for.

Sara Preisler

I am extremely proud of everyone who has been

involved and the hard work and time they have
