The Manchester High School Drama Club debuts “Noises Off” this weekend! Written by Michael Frayn, the New York Times calls this “The most dexterously realized comedy ever about putting on a comedy. A spectacularly funny, peerless backstage farce. This dizzy, well-known romp is festival of delirium.”  

The Drama Club has undergone some changes, recreating its creative team. We have new directors and a new advisor. The fall season started in mid-September with auditions. After auditions were over, we got right to work. Our two-story set, designed by Mr. Mark West – and Drama Club members – are amazing.  

The show is this weekend, November 16 (7 pm), 17 (7 pm), and 18 (2 pm). The Drama Club also will be producing Into the Woods, April 26, 27, and 28. Our club is always looking for support within the community! If you are interested in participating in the drama club, please email our advisor, Mrs. Michelle Shrewsbury at michelle@mtsharpist.com.  

We hope to see you both this weekend, and for our spring show!

For as little as $1 a month, you can keep Manchester-focused news coverage alive.
