The FHS Drama Club will present “The Attempted Murder of Peggy Sweetwater,” a one-act comedy by John Rustan and Frank Semarano as this year’s Fall Production.
Performances will be held Saturday, November 11th at 7 pm and Sunday, November 12th at 3 pm at the FHS Auditorium. Doors open 30 minutes prior to the starting time.
In this lighthearted tale, Sir Phillip Dowden, Edward Llewellyn, and Percy Saunders work together to solve a gaggle of murder attempts on Peggy Sweetwater, handmaiden to Her Lady, the eccentric Duchess of Lardham. The trio attempts to decipher clues such as poisoned crumpets, unregistered Liberian freighters, and ancient Siamese bone china, all while being bamboozled by hidden identities and double agents. Can they solve the mystery? Find out in this Monty Python style farce!
Tickets are $10 for adults, $5 for students, and free for children 3 and under. The proceeds go towards Drama Club senior scholarships and funding.
