The Jonathan Law Drama Club is up and running again and they are getting ready to show their production of “The Play That Goes Wrong.” 

The club is very excited to be back.  Their last play was an adaptation of “Freaky Friday,” a musical, and now “The Play That Goes Wrong” has a bit of a different twist to it. 

“The fall production that we will be holding this year is titled ‘The Play That Goes Wrong’ and as for the plot of the show, it is indeed strange, but overall unique,” senior Drama Club President Sofia Mazzella said. “The play is about a group of actors who are putting on a murder mystery play for an audience, but what makes the show earn its title is that every single thing imaginable goes wrong….actors forget their lines, set pieces break, cues are off, and technical details are greatly flawed.”

Students in the Drama Club want more people to join, because it can be a great place to make new friends and act on stage. 

“My favorite part of being in Drama Club is how welcoming and kind the community is,” sophomore Sarah Ahmed said. “You can be yourself and have fun and make so many new friends, it’s amazing and I would say joining Drama is one of the best decisions I made going into high school.”

The club has many goals they want to achieve to make this play work and have people enjoy it. 

“My goal is to make this another great show with hopefully an even bigger turnout than past years,” senior Shruti Simhadri said. “Expect some promo coming your way soon.”

Club members also want to improve on their acting skills and have a chance to shine on stage. 

“I hope to be a part of the main cast and get to improve as an actor,” junior Faith Santiago said.

Everyone in the club wants to just have fun and enjoy their time making memories on the stage, but also making memories off the stage as well. 

“My main goal for being in the club is to just have fun and enjoy it because it is going to be funny and I am so excited,” junior Hailey Russo said.
