Internet sensation E.D. White Catholic HS consistently turns heads at WGI World Championships with productions featuring visually striking animal props and costumes like horses, giraffes, and deer.

Their 2026 production “Our Story” featured many such animals and was based on the real-world Global Wildlife Center, located about two hours away from the school in Folsom, LA. Early in the season, the group performed the show live for the animals at the preserve as part of a study on the effects of music on animals.

Videographer Jackson Arnold caught up with the ensemble at championships to talk about this unique experience.
