A tragic note: I was holding off on photo IDs until I had IDs for everyone. I knew the dancers but didn't know all the singers. Then came the news of a home invasion involving conservatory students in which four persons were shot, one fatally. One of the cast members posted pictures on Facebook of the victim who was killed, 23-year-old Aaron Markarian - from one of the cast-photo disks I gave to cast members for themselves. He was murdered late Thursday night March 21st. At the time I had one picture with Aaron in it. To give you a little more of this talented young man I've added additonal pictures with Aaron Markarian to this section. There are more items on his Facebook. https://www.facebook.com/aaron.markarian
