Wolf Point Students Working On Play
A group of Wolf Point High School students has been working hard for the past month with the goal of entertaining an audience for two nights in May. The school’s play, And Then There Was One, is scheduled for May 2021 in the school’s auditorium.
“It’s funny. It has a good sense of humor,” Jacob Boysun, assistant director of the play, said.
The one-act play, directed by Tiffani Darby, lasts about 50 minutes.
“It’s good material,” senior Parker Swenson said. “It has interesting characters. I like the choreography.”
The cast includes Joscelyn Russell as Mims, Ryan Schumacher as Clayhorn, Zach MacDonald as Albert Price, Julianna Garfield as Emily Plain, Daniel Sears as Horatio Miles, Katrina Follet as Delores Biggs, Sapphire Redfield as Presley York, Serenity Tibbets as Heather Starlett, Swenson as Matthew Charisma, Del Eymard as Margaret LaRue and Callon Fox as Voice Recording.
And Then There was One
was written by Michael Druce.
According to Pioneer Drama Service, “This spoof of the famous stage mystery is all comedy, filled with hilarious sight gags and dialogue. Ten people are brought together by mysterious invitation to the Reef Mansion on a tiny, isolated island. Not one of them knows the host, who is nowhere to be found. Still, he has left an ominous recording that bodes evil for the guests. Like the chocolate soldiers that inexplicably disappear from the mantel one by one, the guests begin to die one by one. Luckily, Inspector Miles is among the guests, but even he is stymied as to who the murderer could be. As the guests begin to reappear in the final scene, we discover the farcical twist! A great spoof, this delightful script that’s a cinch to costume and stage doesn’t miss any opportunity for lively comedy and humor.”
The cast includes three senior students with Swenson, Russell and Tibbets.
The group noted that the new lighting system for the auditorium makes a big difference.
“It’s really nice,” Swenson said.
Boysun added, “It’s fantastic.”
