Introducing The Written Voice: NSHAHS' Literary Voices Unite

Here we are, April of 2012, right in the midst of tests, homework and extra-curricular activities. Amongst all the work and academic stress, North Shore’s writers still work hard, creating intricate plots and developing dynamic characters. The Written Voice is a digital literary magazine founded in order to be a unique channel for the aspiring young writers of NSHAHS and a mode for the publication of their work. Our goal with this monthly literary magazine is to provide a means of exposure for North Shore’s ambitious writers and a place for their literary works to unite. This inaugural issue includes literary stylings by some of North Shore’s most talented and dedicated writers. The novels featured here will progress with each successive issue and the poems and short stories have been carefully chosen by Written Voice staff for their creativity and originality. These writers have worked tirelessly during their free time to ensure that their works are edited to perfection and ready for publication. We hope that The Written Voice will be received with open arms and constructive feedback. Enjoy!

Sincerely,

The Editors
Anna Hardcastle and Rachelle David

North Shore Hebrew Academy High School’s drama club has worked over the past months to put together a Festival of entertaining One Acts. The Festival, directed by Mr. Nick Matros and Ms. Alizah Kramer, included plays written by Arnold Perl, David Ives and Stephen Gregg.  The first show premiered on Sunday March 11, followed by a second show on Sunday March 18 at the Great Neck Arts Center.

“Our goal as educators is to teach the kids how to take on a character, make it their own and have fun with it,” said Ms. Kramer and Mr. Matros, who would like to send a special thank you to the entire cast for all of the hard work and effort they put into the show. This year’s plays were definitely an act to remember and the Drama Club has left the audience excited for next year’s production.
