All-School Flay Turns Cafeteria Into Battlefield The scene was the MHS cafeteria on December 4, 5, and 6 for the annual all-school play, “The Mouse That Roared.” a three-act comedy about a small country that defied probability by conquering the U.S. The roaring mouse attracted a full house all three nights. The “mouse” was Grand Fenwick, a small country who opened fire on the U.S. because she was producing an imitation wine, which was the main export of Grand Fenwick. The “mouse” also was a portrayal of a legendary field mouse that “roared.” The small country captured an American scientist, the maker of the powerful “Q” bomb. After returning the scientist, the “Q” bomb was used to conquer the U.S. Mrs. Darlene Cook commented, “It was a challenge to work with a cast and crew of more than 40 people, but somehow everything seemed to fit together in the end. I would like to personally thank all of the students involved in the production for their hard work, patience, understanding, and devotion to the cause!” 1.
