Chinese play
Mrs. Gregory’s first grade students from Smith Elementary School present the Chinese play of Yeh Shen to family and friends, June 11. The lead in the play, Yeh Shen, was played by Angelina Samsel. The announcer for the play was Deanna Cox, who was appropriately dressed in an authentic Chinese robe for the special event. This Chinese version of Cinderella was in China 1000 years before the English version surfaced in England.
