It’s time to get dramatic.
The Coupeville High School drama troupe hits the stage the next three nights to present their fall showcase, a mix of short scenes, monologues and a student-written piece.
Performances are Oct. 25-27 in the school’s PAC, with curtain lifting at 6:30 PM each night. Cost is $6 or free to those with ASB cards.
Act One kicks off with Touched By An Alien, an “out of this world, wacky adventure,” with a “Star Trek feel.”
Featured actors are Lily Zustiak, Knight Arndt, Eric Webster, Chandell Schoonover and Ricky Rebischke-Smith.
After that comes a monologue from William Shakespeare’s Henry V, performed by Helen Sinclair, Sis Hopkins’ Audition: A Monologue, performed by Amanda Thomas, and DNA, a “serious monologue about falling asleep in class,” performed by Ricky Rebischke-Smith.
The first act closes with The Spy, a student-written piece by CHS seniors Tiger Johnson and Jaschon Baumann.
The plot is hush-hush, but the writers star alongside Jakobi Baumann.
When the curtain rises for act two, you’ll get No Cell Signal, a “relatable monologue about shoddy signal,” performed by Sinclair.
Then comes Arabian Nights, “a scene of a questionable interpreter, and far away destinations,” with Casey Rogers, Rose Dale, and Elaira Nicolle.
Stuck, “a sweet story of panic in an elevator and love,” comes to us from the duo of Tamika Nastali and Johnson, while Willie, the Angelic Child, a monologue performed by Marissa Williams, is told from the point of view of a “wacky stage-mom like mother, and her crazier child.”
Rounding out the evening is The Philadelphia, an “absurdist look at black holes, cheese steak, and Philadelphia,” with Sinclair and Arndt essaying the roles.
Keeping everything humming along will be stage manager extraordinaire Madison Rixe.
