The 魅影直播 State Drama Club is excited to present 鈥淭he Alibis鈥 as their spring production. Three performances will be held at the Lake Lodge from April 11 鈥 13.
鈥淭he Alibis鈥 is a collection of ten-minute plays, written by eight playwrights, wrapped in a classic whodunnit. When eccentric billionaire J. Leslie Arlington is murdered, a clueless detective finds the suspects are all reluctant to admit their alibis because they were all committing other ridiculous crimes at the time. You never know what's coming next when your suspects include disgruntled chefs, teen detectives, and vengeful divas, but one thing's for certain: Every alibi is absolutely absurd.
The cast features 18 students, including seniors James Abbott, Dylyn Bailey, Nicholas Cain, Willow Ferguson, Benjamin Harris, Ruth Hessinger, Sarah Keehan, Ryan Mitchell, and Marlena Volpe.
