Halloween at Princeton Latin Academy is different. The costume parade is set to the music of Bellini's Norma, the March of the Druids and culminates with all the children on stage together in colorful lighting. As they march off, each child tells the audience his name and who he is for Halloween. Following the parade, the children have fun performing skits they have adapted from literature. In the past, students have staged their renditions of Irving's Legend of Sleepy Hollow, Shelley's Frankenstein, H.G. Well's War of the Worlds and Oscar Wilde's Picture of Dorian Gray. The performances are in keeping with traditional Halloween spookiness, while still exposing the children to great works of literature. After the performance, the parents provide apples, cinnamon donuts and cider.
