For the past six weeks, the GWCS ‘Bit Off More Than We Can Chew Players’ have been working laboriously to assemble six different one-act plays for the 2019 winter production they appropriately titled ‘Wildly Different Things to Entertain You’.
Directed by Mr. Goldie and Dr. Garon, the six one-act plays included:
Jabbberwocky by Lewis Carroll
Time of Your Life: Gum Chewing Scene by William Saroyan
Who’s On First? by Abbott and Costello
The Proposal by Anton Chekhov
Words, Words, Words by David Ives
Puck’s Farewell by Shakespeare
The countless hours of understanding and memorizing lines; rehearsing six different plays; creating and then setting up and breaking down a theatre-in-the-round (daily since it was located in the heart of the school) — all of this work certainly paid off with two tantalizingly triumphant performance nights this past week. The actors may have thought they “bit off more than they could chew” but it turns out, that wasn’t true. Thank you all for your hard work and dedication and for two evenings of glorious entertainment. We can’t wait for the spring production. What? Too soon?
