Playing each other's love interest, Alexandra Steinhaus and Ethan Clemence rehearse the proposal scene.
Memorial Day Weekend, turned into a five day hiatus from school, as students rushed off to the beach, college visits, and beyond. On the other hand, students in Actor’s Repertory, the highest level drama class at Tesoro, were buckling down and rehearsing almost all day, every day to perfect their shows for Three Plays in Three Days.
The class has been split into three different casts, and given a stage manager to help guide them. Each cast picks their own script without any aid from Mrs. DesPalmes, then directs, crews, and performs that entire show. This last project is a chance for the students to really challenge themselves and allows Mrs. DesPalmes to observe each student’s progress and growth.
All students in the three shows sacrificed hours of their weekend, rehearsing. “Perfection takes time and effort, so my cast and I were willing to sacrifice a couple days of our break to ensure that we had a flawless show for the public to enjoy!” said Pierce Larsen, cast member of “The Importance of Being Earnest.”
“We all had a good time at these rehearsals over the break,” relfected Daryl Bunyan. ”Many of the girls whom I was not good friends with, are now my favorite people.”
The three plays being performed are “The Importance of Being Earnest,” “All My Sons,” and “Steel Magnolias.” The week of Three Plays in Three Days starts on June 14, the casts of each play will keep continuing rehearsing until the curtain is drawn.
