Drama Students!

Our One-Act play this year is Mmmbeth!, a spoof of the Scottish play made famous by Shakespeare, as well as a mash-up of many other of Shakespeare's works.  We will begin rehearsals pretty much the second day of school!  This year, we will also be going to the PAC to practice each Thursday after school from 4 to 5:30.  This should get us in great shape to perform at One-Act on October 30 in Cedartown!

I took the workshop on your class this summer, and it was LIFE-CHANGING!  I can't WAIT to share all the stuff I learned with you!
