The Coupeville High School drama troupe presents its fall showcase Oct. 25-27.

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 ArndtEric Webster, Chandell Schoonover and Ricky Rebischke-Smith.

After that comes a monologue from William Shakespeare’s Henry V, performed by Helen SinclairSis 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.

The day, and the world, belongs to the twins.

Coupeville High School sophomore sensations Tamika and Jasmine (Jazzy) Nastali, who celebrate a joint cake day today, are two of the brightest shining stars living in our town.

Superb athletes — Tamika rakes on the softball diamond while Jasmine is a fleet-footed wonder on the track oval — the duo, like older sister Heather, are also really incredible young women in other parts of life as well.

The Nastali twins are smart, kind, caring, friendly, effervescent even.

Very supportive of each other, and of their many family members, Tamika and Jasmine reflect extremely well on parents Beth and Robert.

There is little doubt the titanic twins are going to accomplish big things, both on the athletic stage and off.

The best thing we can all do right now is get in good with them and hope they remember the small people after they’ve hit the big time.

So happy birthday, Nastali sisters.

You make our small town a much better place with your presence, and we, the fans, want to wish you the best on your birthday, and every day.

May you continue to dazzle the world for a very long time to come.

It was cold, damp and sort of miserable … perfect Wolf hunting weather.

Sparked by their mercenaries from Cow Town, the South Central Sox little league softball squad knocked off dastardly Oak Harbor 8-7 Wednesday.

It was the first win in three tries against the North enders for the South Whidbey/Coupeville sluggers.

With all four of its CMS players on the field — Ema Smith was back manning third base after spending time on injured reserve — the Sox finally put it all together.

“Sometimes being a winner doesn’t always mean scoring the victory, but last night it did!,” said proud softball mom Kelly Crownover. “The team was excited.”

Wolf supernova Sarah Wright earned the win in the pitcher’s circle, throwing a complete game, while also whacking three singles.

Veronica Crownover added a base knock and a series of nice digs, saving errant throws at first base for the Sox, while center fielder Tamika Nastali chipped in with a stolen base.
