NOMINATOR’S QUOTE: “I was introduced to Sarah when she volunteered to help produce one of our performances. She immediately stepped in and assumed responsibility as assistant to the director. She is a natural leader. Sarah has since helped me with every other production and successfully directed her own this January and February.” – Andra Syms, director, North Augusta Cultural Arts Council Children’s Theatre Company
