Night of One Act Plays

by Andreanna Smith

This year, for the PCHS students in Theatre Arts class, finals are different than the ones in other classes because for the Theatre Arts students, it is a performance based final. On December 17, Theatre Arts students will be performing some one-act plays for an audience. Based on how well the students perform, Mr. Lynch will determine their grade. Mr. Lynch chose the plays, and each student is in charge of getting their own props.

”I chose the plays by reading some one-act scripts and deciding which performances would be a challenge to the students, and which performance would bring the students out of their comfort zone. There are a couple of emotional performances in the line up. Julia, Watermelon Boats, and Twisted Sister are just some of those. ” Mr. Lynch stated. There are twenty-six students in the class and each of them have a part in a play, they were assigned either an individual monologue or a two – three person dialogue.

If you are interested in attending the performances, they will be held in the PCHS auditorium on the evening of December 17th. The night of one-act plays will start at approximately seven o’clock. Tickets are three dollars each and will be sold at the door.
