Through various activities and experiments, the audience was instructed to confront how they approach risk taking and their comfort zones. “[My biggest takeaway was] make yourself available for other people and share things you might not share with other people to make them feel like they're in a safe environment,” junior Addison Voight said.](https://waylandstudentpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/JLb1q3m4ZHvNAKYzv7c60kyyrrafzS8pJlYoJcoj.png)
On Friday, Jan. 31, the WHS Muses go to Concord-Carlisle High School to sing in the annual “Ice Cappella.” Before this, the Muses and other WHS a cappella groups performed in a Winter Week show, each singing three songs. The other groups were the T-Tones and the Madrigals. “We had to rehearse six different songs and performed twice in one day, which was really stressful,” senior director Finley Knapp said. “We pulled it together very well and I am very proud of the girls.”

The Muses wait for their cue to start singing. The Muses went after Weston's group. Close by, at the Concord-Carlisle gymnasium, the varsity boys basketball team faced Concord-Carlisle.
