Gallery: Students produce ‘Tortoise and Hare’ in 24 hours

January 27, 2020 by Meghan Long

Students participating in Alpha Psi Omega’s annual 24 Hour Musical put on their performance of “Tortoise and Hare” to a nearly sold-out audience Sunday evening. The directors revealed the show at 6:30 p.m. Saturday and participants worked through the night on choreography, music, movement and designs. All proceeds donated for the event supported Texan non-profit Living Water International.
