Drama Club Spring Play

Nathan White, Editor

Drama Club has announced their spring play, 12 Incompetent Jurors! For those of you that have taken U.S. Constitution with Ms. Cutright, yes, it is a parody of 12 Angry Men. The play will be held on Saturday, April 25th at 7 pm and Sunday, April 26th at 2:00 pm.

Auditions will be held on Wednesday, Feb 26th at 3:15 pm and on Thursday, Feb 27th at 7 am and 3:15 pm

The official summary:  When a man is accused of abducting half a dozen cats, it’s a simple open-and-shut case, even for a jury that’s filled with oddballs like a dim-witted PR guy, a bickering couple, and a man obsessed with french fries. After all, every scrap of evidence indicts the accused. (I mean so clearly. The man is very, very guilty of stealing cats. Case closed.) And yet, Juror #8, a wannabe lawyer, believes that the “Cat Burglar” is innocent. Will he be able to sway the other jury members? Or will they side with Juror #3, the only sane man in the room? A hilarious parody of 12 Angry Men.
