Student
Production "Proof" a Success!
Did Catherine take after her genius of
a father?
By Kavita Padia
Valley Chrisitian’s student
run spring production “Proof” was nothing less than sensational.
Junior Nikky Jackson played the role of Catherine,
a twenty-five year old girl who just recently lost her father.
Her father Robert, played by sophomore Robert Norman,
was a well-known mathematician who wanted his daughter Catherine
to follow in his footsteps. Little did he know that she already
was. Every night after Robert had gone to bed, Catherine worked
on a proof. This was not just any ordinary proof, but a proof
that mathematicians all over the world had been trying to solve
for years. Catherine had solved her proof but made the mistake
of not telling anyone about it.
One day after Robert’s death, Catherine showed her proof to her
love, Harold Dobbs, played by sophomore Scott Callisch,
and her sister Clair, played by junior Katie Miljarak.
Harold and Clair did not believe that this was all of Catherine’s
doing. With raving emotions and tears, Catherine proved to them
both that this was her own work, and not her father’s. This heart
touching play was directed by senior Camille Monroe,
with the help of her assistant director, junior Shellie
Guy. “This simplistic and modern play reminds us of this
simple message; we will have a time in our lives when we will
be in search of ourselves. And in order to do that we have to
listen to what God says in the world around us, which could be
through the people in our lives,” said Monroe. Monroe and Guy
are both thankful for being given an opportunity like this at
Valley. Opening night was on April 6 at 7:29 p.m. with the audience
experiencing great excitement. The play’s closure left the audience
very pleased.

Spiritual Emphasis
Week
Imagine trudging through a swamp waist deep with nothing
to guide you but your compass. It is night, and you have to use
your instincts to find your way to a marked point. For speaker
Darrin Crowder, he has met many similar challenges
such as this when he joined the army.
Crowder came to Valley Christian the week of March 27 to share
his message with the students of how to separate “what the world
tries to say to you vs. what the Bible is trying to tell you.”
