A Comedy of Errors, the fall play, will be presented November 15 and 16 at 7:30 p.m. in the auditorium, according to junior Mark Meyer, student director.Many "talented students" tried out for roles in Comedy of Errors, by William Shakespeare, but only 26 made it, according to Mark. As student director, Mark got to sit through try-outs and decide who would be good for each role.
"It was a tough decision because of all of the talent, but it was exciting to see such a good turn out," said Mark. "I think we'll put on a really good show this year."The lead senior actors and actresses are Holly Stewart, Mike Laforest, and

Ben McCann, who is new to the stage this year. Mark Meyer is the only junior with a lead role, in addition to being student director. Sophomore Tricia Kregg and freshmen Brean Birdsong and Mike West also have lead roles in the play.

Mr. Thomas Hevel is the director of the play. Mark helps him out with errands and directing the students. The students practice from 3-5 Monday through Thursday.
