Corinne Wilson is a senior and is thrilled to be playing the role of Velma Kelly. You
may have seen her in other Westlake High School Productions such as Oklahoma
(Ado Annie) and The Addams Family (Wednesday). Outside of Westlake, she has
been in Jekyll and Hyde, Les Miserables, Songs For A New World, and many more!
Besides doing musicals Corinne also swims, plays lacrosse and plays piano. She has
had so much fun with this show and wants to thank everyone for all the time they
have put in making it as amazing as it is. She also wants to shout-out her friends
and family for always supporting her in every aspect of life. As your drama club
president, she hopes you enjoy the show!

Jackie Wong is a senior this year and Chicago is her third musical here at westlake.
She is in Shakespeare club, songwriting club, Symphonic band (French horn) and
Jazz 1 (guitar). Jackie is very proud of everyone in the production; many of them are
missing a week at Disney on a band trip and everyone has been working hard
despite busy schedules and highschool stress. She would like to thank Mrs. Butler,
Mr. Warnke. Mrs. Patriok and everyone else involved for their hard work and
dedication to the show.

Katherine Xiao is currently a senior at Westlake High School and can’t wait to be
part of Chicago. This is her third year in the pit. In the past, she has played violin in
Oklahoma! and keyboard in The Addams Family Musical. She is also part of the
marching band, Jazz II, and Academic Challenge. Katherine would like to thank Mrs.
Patriok for the amount of work she’s put in to make this possible. She is also very
grateful for her parents and their continued support in everything she does.

Michelle Xiao is a senior at Westlake High School and a two-year member of the
Demon Drama Club. She is so excited to be able to work with all these amazing
people on an equally amazing show. Outside of the show, Michelle is a member of
the school’s varsity Track and Field team, Science Olympiad, Model UN, and Asian
American Club. Michelle really values all the friendships these productions have
brought her, and she hopes you all enjoy the show!

Niki Zhen is a senior at Westlake High School and works Backstage Crew for the
school’s plays and musicals. They worked on Mamma Mia, Oklahoma!, Addams
Family, Alice in Wonderland, and now, Chicago. Outside of these productions, they
are the Co-President of Art and Animation Club, a member of Ski Club
(Snowboarder), and a member of the Westlake Girls Bowling Team. Their favorite
memory is all the crew mimicking the choreography off to the sidelines during the
Oklahoma! performances. Niki is grateful for all the experiences and skills that set
construction has given them, forgiving the sometimes gruesomely late hours the
whole team has to stay in order to finish sets and rehearsals. Special thanks to
Mr. Warnke and Mrs. Butler for making this possible (and providing entertainment
with their lighthearted bickering). They made many new friends and created deeper
connections with old ones. They send additional thanks to all their friends who put
up with their shenanigans and even joined in. Sending love to everyone! :]
