First-place student winner Chris Scevolli emulates Michael Jackson in Lip Sync
contest.
Students and teachers engaged in friendly competition at Belleville High School’s Connie Francis Theatre on Nov. 10 in the school’s first “Faculty vs. Students Lip Sync Battle” in a fundraising effort for the Theater Arts Company’s spring musical “Into the Woods.”
Participating students were: Brittney Huaman, Lisvette Concepcion, Mustafa Asali, Christopher Scevolli, Kenya Pringle, Rachel Aquino, Paulyn Ceballos, Sabrina Delgado, Nia Dubourg, Beba Zilkic, Christian Farrand, Danny Guerra, Elias Tapia and Justin Ungag.
Faulty demonstrating their talents were: Gary Politano, Joseph Rotonda, Christine Hurta, Beth Garrett, Danielle Labriola, Doran Race and Brian Sapinski.
Winners from each group, as determined by a vote of the audience, were Gary Politano and Chris Scevolli.
“It was really nice to be able to watch both faculty and students perform in this event together,” said event organizer Carol Lombardi, high school vocal music/theater arts director.
Theater Arts Company President Brianna Martinez and Senior Class President Danny Guerra hosted the affair.
The competition raised more than $1,200 for the upcoming musical.
