Hayden Scott ’24 and Sandra Loret de Mola ’24 MC’d this year’s annual Senior Talent Show on May 22 in Walker Auditorium.

The show consisted of several musical acts, fun interviews, and a slideshow tribute to the class of 2024.

The Seniors were granted permission to delay dorm check-in until 10:15 p.m due to the show’s length. “It was perfectly paced—the events were all great, and even with the extra time, it didn’t feel too long. I wish we had been able to see more,” said Oliver Johnson ’25.

Among the many acts was a game of “Spill Your Guts or Fill Your Guts” with Dan Gilbane ’24, Hannah Oberman ’24, Safety & Security Officer Chris Wilkerson, and Mr. Sam Somera, instructor in humanities and social sciences. Participants were challenged to answer embarrassing questions or consume unusual foods, including chocolate-covered worms and liver.

Alex Shtohryn ’24 and Graham Prinz ’24 performed a duet of “Home” by Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeros; Gilbane and Nick George ’24 offered a cover of Vance Joy’s “Riptide”; and Leila Farman ’24 showed a video of 3 a.m. interviews in Tinker dorm. The penultimate act was an original rap music video, “The Big Three,” created by Jacquo Pierre ’24, Quillan Oberto ’24, and Nate Harrison ’24.

Sebby Brown ’24 said, “Our class continued the tradition very well. We have such a diverse range of talents, and it was great to showcase them to the school for the last time.”

Audience members received the Senior Talent Show well, offering thundering applause after each act. Attendee Landon Nataraj ’26 said, “The show was a nice last hurrah for the Seniors. I realize how much I’m going to miss their energy and presence when they graduate.”
