Thursday, September 12th, is the informational meeting for the upcoming musical, High School Musical. The meeting will be held in room K-5 afterschool.
On Friday night I went to see the ever-anticipated spring play, A Comedy of Errors. The play was directed by the drama teacher, Ms. Amanda Malo, and also had a smaller cast than most plays in the past. I had heard very good things about the play from my classmates who had seen it earlier, and had very high expectations. Needless to say, I was not disappointed. The play followed the story of two sets of identical twins from different towns, who arrived in the same place and kept getting mistaken for one another.
Have you ever heard actors and actresses go honk? Well now you can, because starting on Friday, March 20 you will be surprised to see a gaggle of cast members, including former Howell students, Rebecca Chan and Abbey Bean, and current Howell students Julia Coulier and Jordan Chantaca perform with grace, style, and flutter their hearts out. That’s right it’s the Community Theatre of Howell’s (CTH) production of Honk Jr.
Every four years, Theater Director Amanda Malo brings the community members of Howell a Shakespeare performance. This year’s specialty play is “Comedy of Errors.” This Shakespearian journey is the tale of two brothers separated at birth, trying to find their way back to each other.
Directing takes heart, determination, and of course, these three words: Lights, camera, action. A Howell High School senior, Brooke Lys, will be taking on the challenge of directing an entire two act play by herself. The production she chose to put on is called The Apartment and will be shown in the drama room, K-5, at the high school. It will be shown over two days from March 10-11, at 7p.m. Tickets will only be available at the door for $5. There are a maximum 100 seats per show.
Twins, magic, Shakespeare and more is in this year’s production of the Comedy of Errors. Drama teacher Amanda Malo and ‘08 alumni Annie Dilworth, will be co-directing this year’s production.
In the fall of 2002, Mrs. Amanda Malo started teaching at Howell High School. During this time, she has been the director for ten different musicals. Recently, Mrs. Malo announced that she was stepping down from directing musicals. This was a huge shock to the drama department. By Staff Writer: Jackie Keranen
This weekend, be sure not to miss Howell High School’s production of The Wizard of Oz. There will be shows Nov. 20-22 in the evening at 7p.m. and a final performance this Sunday, Nov. 23, at 2p.m. The musical will be performed in the HHS auditorium. By Feature Editor: Jada Boprie
Last week, the cast of The Wizard of Oz embarked on an adventure to Howell's various elementary schools. The cast got into character and set off to entertain and enlighten the children of Howell. This was an opportunity to advertise for the play, as well as give the cast performing experience.
