The spring play is now available to view on our YouTube channel. A cast of talented middle and high school students worked hard to perform, film and edit this production. The play tells the hilarious tale of how Mom and Dad met in their perfect high school job as Nintendo video game counselors back in 1989. A cast of strange coworkers and crazy callers create plenty of humorous moments. Enjoy the production at this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ENxii4pduXE&t=5s
