Claremont raises the curtain on 3 One-Act plays about High School Life

This December 10th-13th nightly at 7:30pm the Drama program at Claremont Secondary is producing an evening of One-Act Plays about high school life that are both humorous and insightful.

The three shorter plays USERNAME, Gossip and Alienated showcase the skills of  the 34 students in the Drama 9-12 class as well as the 15 students of the backstage crew.  Students in this program include first-time to experienced performers. 

USERNAME is a humorous satire that presents the ramifications of a plugged-in life and the benefits of finding balance with good old-fashioned human connection.

Gossip packs a powerful punch as it brings “Gossip” to life and since its infectious spread a visible presence onstage.  A group of high school reality students befriends a charming yet sinister new student named Gossip. 

Alienated One is about a 17-year-old named Cammie who gathers her classmates to solve a mystery involving a recurring bright light, believing one of them is an alien.  A shock ending will leave you with goosebumps.
