fall play— aQqnew way A new director brought new ideas and a new approach to the fall play. For her first produc- tion at HHS, Miss Suzanne Hill chose The Man Who Came to Dinner. The large cast gave many students a chance to par- ticipate. Another major change was the move from the auditorium to the multi-purpose room. Miss Hill felt theater-in-the-round would be a good experience for the actors as well as bring the audience and performers closer together. student life

We had to make sure we didn’t turn our backs on the audience for very long. This meant we were constantly moving, which wasn't too easy for me in a wheelchair.” — John Oriez, senior “The arena staging was a new exper. lence for us.
