Junior Drama Production I: The Beaux's Stratagem


Join us on Wednesday, October 16, at 7:00 p.m., in the Greenlawn Auditorium for the junior drama production of George Farquhar's hilarious 18th-century comedy The Beaux' Stratagem.


Jack Archer and Tom Aimwell are two penniless gentlemen who have been forced to leave London and roam the English countryside. Disguised as a wealthy master and his servant, the pair are hoping to find a rich heiress for one of them to marry. They set their caps on the lovely Dorinda and her sister-in-law Kate. However, their plans go awry when a series of wild schemes involving a crooked innkeeper and his saucy daughter, a gang of highwaymen, and a robbery attempt to threaten their happiness and chances at true love.

Fall Break


There will be no school on Thursday, October 17, and Friday, October 18, for Fall Break. Please note that there will be no Study Hall on Wednesday, October 16. The front office will be closed during Fall Break.
