A drop-dead performance by Wood Hill Spanish students

By Billy Nicolakakis

Wood Hill Spanish students gave a drop-dead performance during the school’s annual El Dia De Los Muertos production. El Dia De Los Muertos is a holiday celebrated primarily in Spanish countries on November first and second, translating to the day of the dead.

The play, performed by seventh grade students, consisted of Spanish music cover songs, dancing and a story line about the three days of El Dia De Los Muertos in Mexico. Traditionally to celebrate, people dress up in costumes (mostly skeletons) and honor their deceased family members.

The production included a lot of dancing and was very colorful. The play was held second period on Monday, November third in the auditorium and it was open to students, staff and parents.
