High school students perform "Once in a Life Time" - a satire of three struggling vaudville actors who head to Hollywood in the 1920s.
Greendale High School theatre performed its 2011 fall play, "Once in a Life Time", Thursday evening. The play, set in 1920s Hollywood, was directed by Eric Christiansen, an English and theatre teacher at the high school. Kathy Andrzejewski, costume designer, took us back to the fun and glorious fashion of the times. The main characters May (Kelly Korek), George (Burgoyne Hughes) and Jerry (Will Raasch) head to Hollywood to cash in on the latest fad: talkies. Throughout their journey and efforts, they meet some colorful characters along the way.
