It’s the beginning of another year for the sophomore class of 2020. Without a doubt, their second year of Non-Fire will be another opportunity to prove their whole class as a unit in skits and choreography. Class of 2020’s Non-Fire theme was the fear of dolls. The skit centers around a bullied kid named Donny who develops an obsession with a voodoo doll to inflict revenge against his tormentors. As the day of Non-Fire drew near, practice became more efficient and productive amongst the participants.
One of the 2020 officers, Ben Huynh ‘20, said, “The audience should keep their minds open” to describe how he thought the performance would be received.
Mike Raras ‘20, a participant, added, “I have a phenomenal expectation for our class on the field because I believe in the big potential our performances have.”

Two days later, time was ticking and the sophomores quickly set up their props on the football field. The boards were colorfully drawn and painted. Allen Tran, one of the class officers, acted as the main character Donny and Johnson Bao and Destiny Hoang were the bullies. The actors were energetic with their gestures and the skit soared by smoothly with the voice-acted audio. The dances complemented the class’s eerie theme, especially the finale with Melanie Martinez’s song “Dollhouse”.
Jesse Vargas ‘20, one of the class choreographers, proudly stated about the dancers, “I think everyone was ready since the class had been practicing hard and consistently. This experience definitely helped me learn how to teach and grow as a dancer.”
The sophomores definitely proved their potential for future events like F.A.N.T.A.S.T.I.C.S. The class is still growing as dancers, actors, and artists in general. Given that they stepped up this year’s Non-Fire, the future holds great possibilities for what they plan to reveal next.
