Dragons, attention! Kingsway Live 2026 is now in the works. The boys are preparing to perform on February 13th with the same universally-loved format—featuring a new, passionate, and energetic cast! This year’s theme is Decades, with each boy coming to the present from one of the iconic decades of the past.
Selected after a rigorous voting and interview process, the twelve senior boys competing for the renowned title this year are Warren Lamonica, William Warner, Mason Corey, Aidan McCourt, Connor Brown, Van Gantz, Max Shah, Jake Mangifesta, Will Finnan, Colston Karetsky, Collin Klepacz, and Dominic Traini. Student council advisors Mrs. Corcoran and Mrs. Miller will be overseeing the event, as always.
The renowned hosts for this show are Anya Patel, Krishani Parikh, and Sophia Paoletti. The choreographers are Mahi Mopal, Danielle Lewis, Lily Shafer, and Ezeily Rucci, and the stage managers are Kendall Flowers and Kamiah Schofield. Lastly, videographers are Ernie Bobb, Jameson Forcsyk, Jarrett Mattson, and Connor Thompson.
As a new addition this year, the boys have shirt designs for each of their months for students to purchase! Buy these shirts on Kingsway’s website, and wear them the night of the show to show your support. All proceeds go to the Class of 2029.
Each boy has also picked their charities, which they will be raising money for– through Penny Wars– the week of Kingsway Live: Warren with Family Promise, Will Warner with Hydrocephalus Association, Mason with CHOP, Aidan with Small Steps in Speech, Connor with Movember, Van with Pink Clover Foundation, Max with Samiritan, Jake with the American Lung Association, Will F with the Skin Cancer Foundation, Colson with the Prostate Cancer Foundation, Collin with the Mulitiple Sclorisis Foundation, and Dom with the Eagles Autism Foundation. The boys are extra excited to start raising money for their respective organizations.
When asked about his favorite part of Kingsway Live, Will Warner said that, while it’s extremely time-consuming and requires a lot of hard work, it’s worth it for all the memories, friendship, and experiences that he’s gained along the way. He really enjoys the dancing portions of the show and being able to share the stage with his friends every week. Mason Corey agrees that this has been an incredible experience so far. He loves spending time with the group of guys around him and learning the dances. He’s excited to see how the show turns out.
Anya Patel, a host of the show, was honored to be a part of the show for numerous years, experiencing it from multiple perspectives. In previous years, she worked behind the scenes, helping coordinate, plan, and manage the countless details that make the show successful. Now, as a senior and host, she steps front-and-center to see firsthand how every effort contributes to an unforgettable experience. Kingsway Live, she believes, is a part of her school community, bringing students together, celebrating talent, and strengthening spirit at Kingsway.
Kingsway Live, coming February 13, 2026, will be an incredible performance! Come out to the Eitel Theater to witness these senior boys shine on stage.
