Camden Hills names Bekah Schade October Student of the Month
The Visual and Performing Arts Department congratulated Rebekah Schade on being named Student of the Month for October.
Bekah, a senior, has been involved in theater and music at Camden Hills every year. And before high school, participated in a myriad of community theater productions. A member of Chorale, Women's Choir, and Chamber Singers, Bekah has been accepted to both MMEA District and All State Music festivals. She is a strong ensemble member and brings a collaborative spirit to every classroom project.
On stage, Bekah has participated in four years of musicals and winter one-acts. In the Spring, she takes a hiatus from the dark corners of theater life and runs track with the CHRHS team.
Whether in an ensemble role, lead, or student-directing a show, Bekah has been involved in all aspects of theater at CHRHS and within the surrounding community. She has been a student intern for local summer theater camps, has won awards for her acting at regional and state level drama festivals, and has done voice recording and film work with area groups.
Audience members may well remember her sophomore year performance as one of the ugly stepsisters in the CHRHS production of Cinderella. This year, Bekah will be playing the lead role of Deloris in the current production of Sister Act. Bekah is currently enjoying many hours of rehearsal to develope the character of Deloris, a night club singer who witnesses a murder, and then has to hide out in a convent.
In college, Bekah plans on being involved with journalism, education, English and theater. Her words of encouragement to students considering the arts: "Just do it. No matter if you are shy, awkward, or think you'll be bad at it. If you want to do it, don't let anything hold you back. If you work hard enough and it's what you love, everything will fall into place for you."
“Congratulations to Bekah Schade; and come support her and her peers in the Fall Production of Sister Act,” wrote the high school, in a press release.
