If Mirror Images is anything, it is a labor of love. That’s what motivates Rebecca Lawson, the advisor of the Sullivan High School prevention theater group.

Perfectly Imperfect will have one public performance at 7:00 p.m. Friday, January 26 at The Little Theatre on the Square in Sullivan.

“Each year students work with me to produce a show that focuses on prevention messages - messages that they hope will help their peers and messages that all hit close to home,” she noted. “The students who write the show select issues that they feel are currently important for students in Sullivan schools. They really want to help their peers by letting them know they are not alone, showing them the potential consequences of their choices, and even inspiring them to make positive choices. For the past several years we have written original scripts, and this year we are very proud of our new show, Perfectly Imperfect.”

“We began writing this year’s show in October, and it has a lot of powerful messages,” Lawson added.     Login or Subscribe to read the rest of this story.
