GLEE By: Teagan Curran On a day that I do remember there was a play by some Club students and other random people from Alden were in the play called GLEE. The Club students that were in the play were Shannon, Meryl, Julia, and Molly. I give it 5 stars. Although it was a short play, I liked it because it was very funny. Do you think it was very funny? I hope you did think it was funny. That’s it for the GLEE report.
