The first play in more than two years will debut next weekend at Hartley-Melvin-Sanborn High School.
The drama department will present two showings of The Internet Is Distract–Oh Look a Kitten! The first performance will take place on Friday, April 16 at 7 p.m., with the second slated for Saturday, April 17 at 7 p.m. Both will be held at the H-M-S Middle School in Hartley (old elementary building).
The play promises plenty of laughs. Micah only has 45 minutes to finish her paper on The Great Gatsby – she just needs to check a few facts on the internet first. Unfortunately, the web is a nefariously wacky place where boxing cats, Russian spies and competitive streaming services threaten to take over Micah's schoolwork, or worse.
Will she finish her paper and escape with her life before the school bell rings?
The Internet Is Distract–Oh Look a Kitten! is a high-octane comedy that explores the rabbit hole of distraction we all go down every time we go online.
Tickets are $5 per person, and masks are optional.
