Meet Hayden, Kallen, Jackson, Justin, and Sam - they play Curtis and his group of troublemakers. Hayden, a Freshman, leads the group as Curtis Jackson, Deloris' not-so-nice boyfriend. Hayden is joined by Kallen (7th grade) as Ernie, Jackson (7th grade) as Joey, Justin (8th grade) as Pablo, and Sam (7th grade) as TJ. The group brings a lot of comedic joy to the show and have great chemistry together.
The boys say they enjoy being in the musical because it's something different to do after school. They love being able to show their goofy side on stage. The group encourages people to see the show because "we have a great cast, great crew, and a great director... What's not to love?"
