CHS’s winter play is almost here! This year the theatre department will perform the show Look Who’s Laughing.
This show, in Ms. Parker’s words, is about, “The Crocker family. The father, Henry, has quite the temper, and his family has a hard time dealing with it. A surprise visit from Henry’s old war buddy, Jed Tracy, gives the family a small break from Henry’s temper. Mame Crocker, Henry’s wife, asks Jed for his help in making Henry realize his temper is an issue. Jed then bets Henry that he can’t go a week without losing his temper. Henry takes the bet, and inevitably, everything in that week goes wrong.”
The cast for this show is a small one. There are nine parts with four of them being leads. The lead characters are played by Angel Osorio (Henry Crocker), Bria Jeffereys (Mame Crocker), Kai White (Jed Tracy) and Lexi Urkoski (Barbara Crocker).
The cast has dealt with a few setbacks such as scheduling issues. They started rehearsals a little later than anticipated with all the snow days at the beginning of the semester, but that hasn’t stopped them from working hard.
“One of the best parts of the theatre season,” Ms. Parker says, “is working with the incredibly talented students we have on the cast and crew. We get so close and have a lot of great laughs during rehearsals.”
The entire cast and crew is so excited to put on this show to the public. Opening night is Friday, March 1, at 7 pm. There will be two more performances on Saturday, March 2, at 2 pm and 7 pm. The cast can’t wait to see you there!
