Hello SHS Performing Arts Boosters Families,
We are very excited to announce our first event for this fall, the Fall Play, Promedy by Wade Bradford on Novemeber 13th, 14th, and 15th.This show is going to be extra special as students are performing it in the commons area as a Dinner Theatre experience! This is something never attempted at the high school and yet so appropriate for a play about a prom.
To prom or not to prom? That is the question! The student body leaders at Lowzund High bicker and argue about various prom themes. They finally decide to combine all of their ideas into one to create a medieval-futuristic-under-the-sea dance. But when self-proclaimed drama-geek, Dante Allegro, is rejected by the arrogant, text-messaging-obsessed cheerleader, he uses his persuasive abilities to cancel the whole event. Now, the noble-hearted student body president, Beatrix Holiday, must come up with a scheme to rescue what she believes is the defining moment in their young lives. To help win back the prom, she must utilize the intelligence of Chester (the school's resident brainiac), Tanner (the charismatic captain of the football-team), and a brooding, Goth-girl named Lee (who secretly likes Tanner). Mixed-up romantic misunderstandings abound in this laugh-a-minute comedy about that wonderfully stressful event: the prom!
Our cast of 32 students are fast at work rehearsing the show. They are pretty excited to have staging in 5 areas of the commons to bring this hilarious and contemporary comedy to the SHS audience.
In order to make this the great Sherwood High School drama experience the entire community will want to be a part of, we need some help. You are invited to come learn about how a show is produced and to be a part of the team.
Please join us at the first Production Meeting on this Monday, October 27th at 5:30 in the Commons Classroom #2. No experience is necessary (YES, REALLY!) and you do not have to have a student in the show in order to help. We will support you and guide you in whatever role you feel would work best for you. Not a thespian? No problem, no acting required just a bit of your time and energy to support this great group of students! *** Please take a look at the list below
We hope to see you Monday, but if you can’t come and want to help or have questions, email us at [email protected]
Thank you for supporting the performing arts programs at Sherwood High School whether behind the scenes or as a member of the audience.
