The first two books in 'The Yearbook Series', are titled 'Freshman Year, 91-92' and 'Sophomore Year, 92-93'. This fictional story chronicles a journey of growing up and making it through the trials and tribulations of high school and being a teenager. Taking place in the small town of Juneau, Alaska, Mia Adams and her friends learn about the things their parents didn't necessarily teach them about or prepare them for: challenging educational experiences, entering into romantic relationships that become serious, and testing of the strongest friendships in unimaginable ways.

Based on the 1974 Stephen King thriller and 1979 Brian DePalma film, Carrie: The Musical has cemented its roll in history as a spine-chilling classic that turns the struggles of adolescence upside down. Enjoying a recent off-Broadway revival, King's tale of a girl's supernatural powers has evolved into a cult classic adored by audiences. Ephrata Performing Arts Center will present this evocative thriller at EPAC's Sharidan Bigler Theatre. The production opens tonight, October 15, 2015, and runs through October 31, 2015.
