DRAMATIC Stage Door News... Kelly Jr. (as Kelly Graingers students have lovingly referred to her for the past nine months,) has made her debut! On May 8th - in the most theatrical way possible - Kenna Nelsona Gallop Grainger, made her way in to the world. She simply couldnt wait to meet her awesome parents, and before even paramedics could arrive, Kellys husband Kenny delivered their very first baby, in their bathtub! Everyone is doing more than fine, and Kelly is already planning her return to Stage Door later this week! Leave it to our EAP director (AND HER NEW BABY GIRL) to steal the show with the most dramatic news this season. Congratulations!
