On October 30, 2024, Renton High School’s very own drama club organized a fantastic talent show for family, friends, students, and staff to enjoy. Held at the IKEA Performing Arts Center with a $5 ticket entry fee, the fascinating performances surprised everyone with the special talents that were showcased. From students singing their hearts out, to hilarious comedy skits, and timeless dancing, the RHS drama club made sure that guests had a good time with each performance.
From musical performances to comedy skits, the talent show provides a platform for students to express themselves in front of their peers. The event not only entertains the school, but also fosters a sense of community, as students support one another in their performances. The audience cheers for their classmates, creating an environment of encouragement and positivity for many students!
This was truly an amazing night for RHS students, families, and friends. We know and acknowledge the hard work that these students put into the show to make it fun and as entertaining as possible. Even though it must have taken some courage! A great amount of time and effort has been put into exhibiting this talent show, so thank you to RHS drama club for making this amazing event a reality. Also, a big thank you to all the friends and family who showed up to support!
