The Denton Avenue School Theatre Arts Club recently entertained their audiences with 10 short plays in their production “@Denton.net.” The fifth grade actors and playwrights wrote and performed original skits conveying their insights about the way in which social media and the Internet are shaping their world.

The students demonstrated their creative talents in addressing such challenging topics as cyber bullying, peer pressure and the impact of technology on family and social relationships.

Rob Gioia, the director and former Herricks STAC member, guided the students in their writing and acting debuts. Denton teacher Lisa Wollos also dedicated her time helping to make this production a success.
