ABOUT THE SHOW:

Comedy

This clever comedy is an ideal high school competition play. Three groups of students are preparing

for a drama competition. One has lots of rehearsal time and chooses a romance. The meatheads

decide to do a typical teen problem play. The arty clique wants to do a one act version of King Lear

as a Japanese Noh drama. Winner of several competitions, this play is certain to delight your

students, your audience and those hard to please judges.
