A Time to Perform in July
By Kaye Osborn
Hello July! This month the YES (Youth Entertainment Stage) Company presents Mary Poppins at the Gallo Center for the Arts. YES Company, created by the amazing Melanee Wyatt, and chartered by Stanislaus County Office of Education and Modesto City Schools began in 1992. It has grown tremendously over the years, and includes YES Kids, YES Kidettes, YES Ambassadors and YES Grads. The company involves students county-wide. Well over 1,000 students have participated in YES Company. If you have never attended a YES Company presentation, make sure you catch this summer’s offering of Mary Poppins. On July 18, Connie Ambrosia Wann, Mark Medina and Kaye Osborn will interpret the Sunday matinee for the Deaf Community. They promise this summer’s musical will be Supercalifragillisticexpialidociously fun! (You should try fingerspelling that!)
