11th Annual Sarah Play MURDER, MAYHEM, AND MONKEYS Set for Round House Theatre, 3/15-24
Murder, Mayhem, and Monkeys...An Evening with David Ives: Round House Theatre presents the 11th Annual Sarah Play - the only play produced by a regional theatre that is directed, designed, and performed entirely by high school students.
Performances will play the Round House Theatre, 8641 Colesville Road, Silver Spring (3 blocks), March 15, 16, 22, and 23 at 8pm and March 24, 2013 at 2pm.
If a bell rang every time you said the wrong thing, would every conversation be a sure thing? Do monkeys get writers block? How do you escape a Philadelphia? The answers to these and other questions of contemporary life can be found in an evening of sparkling one acts by David Ives ? The Philadelphia; Words, Words, Words; Sure Thing; and The Mystery at Twicknam Vicarage. In this comedy of verbal gymnastics, language is a springboard to the infinite possibilities of life.
