Troupe 657 was founded in 1945 by English teacher Grace Dawson, for whom our annual "Best Thespian" award is named. Since our chartering, over 1800 Greeley High and Greeley Central High students have become members, including numerous students who have gone on to become prominent Greeley citizens.
Troupe membership is tendered to students who have participated in any capacity in a minimum of two plays at Central, and who have earned a minimum of 10 points. One point is awarded for each 10 hours of service.
For the past school year, major award winners were: Grace E. Dawson Best Thespian, Will Benich and Nate Cockroft, and Unsung Hero, Dylan Shelofsky. For 2008-09, Troupe officers are Dylan Shelofsky, Jessie McMurren and Megan Skees. Mr. Mark Kolokoff is Troupe advisor.
