"We are fortunate to have so many über talented students performers participate in DAST," said Jeffrey Santoro, Founder/Director of Delaware All-State Theatre. "With this show, having comedic timing is crucial for a successful production. At each rehearsal I love watching our performers laugh and thoroughly enjoy the performances of their fellow cast-mates.
