performed other synchronized move-
ments, and even became props. Every
single movement relayed the many
meanings of love in context or core
with remarkable precision and grace.
As David Sun, from grade 10, who plays
the human form of the sun said, “For
me drama was about reciting memo-
rized dialogues, but this play made me
realize how much more complicated
plays are. I especially admire, and am
impressed with my peers who worked
backstage to make this play possible.
Nobody sees them, but they are the
real stars.”
David’s classmate and stage manager,
Jennifer Li agrees: “As the stage man-
ager, I learned so much – writing a
prompt book, and giving cues for the
props, actors, light and sound. And
most importantly I was able to see the
play come alive from nothing. I am not
on stage, but it is fulfilling to see the
play role out with every cue I gave.”
Most of the students in the play, when
asked, said they have not experienced
this kind of love. Ms. Keller, meanwhile,
hopes her students have learned about
love and life from this play, and that “the
adults in the audience may have seen
their reflections in the human form of
the sun and moon, the man and wom-
an respectively.”
The sun and moon have returned to the
universe having defied destiny briefly,
but they have left behind a lot of love,
as the human form of the moon, Ash-
ley Fang from grade 10 so rightly put,
“This is my first year at Keystone, but
this play helped me discover a beauti-
ful Keystone family – the teachers and
the students. This was an unforgettable
experience.”
