Senior Profile: Abigail Colfer
Abigail Colfer is a Senior from Massapequa High School and has been a part of the Production Managerial Arts program at LIHSA for the past two years. When she heard about the LIHSA program she was interested because it allowed her the opportunity to explore Tech Theatre, a class that wasn’t offered in her home district high school. Once Abigail began classes, she really liked the smaller environment and creative freedom that she has with her teacher, Erik Chocianowski.
Abigail said her favorite thing about tech theatre is “seeing it all come together” and “the process of creating different things” and will be studying Technical Theatre next year at Fairleigh Dickinson University. Abigail was offered impressive scholarships from Marymount Manhattan, Eastern Connecticut State, and Fairleigh Dickinson and is excited to also pursue a concentration in Stage Direction.
When asked about her favorite part of attending LIHSA, Abigail enthusiastically shared, “Working with students in other departments, like dance, on all of the productions has been great.”
