"Prospect resident Bret Bisaillon, a fifth-grade teacher at Kingsbury Elementary School in Waterbury, is part of the cast for only the second time, but he nearly manages to steal the show. He leads the cast in the wonderful “A Broadway Diva Holiday.” He also appears in the second act as a boy playing a shepherd in a Christmas pageant who would like to move on in “I Don’t Wanna Be a Shepherd No More” and one of three UPS guys delivering “Your Christmas Package.”"
