First-Year Production

Honey, I Juiced the Kids 

The 47th annual Christ College First-Year Production, Honey, I Juiced the Kids, kept audiences mesmerized for all five sold-out performances in the Refectory Theatre.

In just 10 weeks of intense collaboration, the students who make up the honors college freshman class write, stage, and perform an original 90-minute theatre piece with music based on ideas and themes encountered in their interdisciplinary honors courses.

Honey, I Juiced the Kids was directed by First-Year Drama Workshop coordinator Isaac Schoepp ’07 and assistant director Jacob Just ’12.
