    As the house lights are gradually lowered in the Glenelg Country School auditorium, the audience’s effervescent chattering falls to a hush and all that can be heard is one voice somewhere in the theatre, enchanting the audience. The spectators listen intently as the voice travels throughout the theatre, until suddenly, a single spotlight illuminates a middle-aged man sitting on a worn armchair playing the soundtrack of his favorite musical on his antique turntable. So begins Gelnelg Country School’s performance of “The Drowsy Chaperone”.

Liberty Hall Museum has been the home to a very influential governor of New Jersey and later bought into the Kean family. When touring the museum the architecture immediately caught my attention. The beautiful hardwood floors were the first thing that I noticed as they squeaked louder with each step; continuing into the house the chandeliers in each room caught to light instantly and I was in awe. Today I would never imagine having a tea room, and separate sections where the children stayed and played away from their parents, and the kitchen kept at the bottom of the house.…
