Coffeehouse, a wild ride of comedic sketches and the best of Point Loma High School students as singers, dancers and actors, will be held Thursday through Saturday, March 17 through 19, at 7 p.m. in the Larry Zeiger Performing Arts Center, 2335 Chatsworth Blvd. in Point Loma.
\nThe show, in its 26th year, is unique in that it is a student production \u2013 auditions and casting, writing and directing are handled by PLHS thespians. Theater and dance director Christina Fulcher oversees the students\u2019 rehearsals and produces the show. Three student directors, Krysten Chermak, Sofia Scafidi and Brooklyn White, are leading actors through rehearsals and also starring in the skits.
\nThis year\u2019s Coffeehouse has a cast and crew of nearly 50 students, a quarter of whom are International Thespian Society members. Twenty dancers from PLHS Dance Company will perform, and students in Theatre I and II will be featured in the production.
\nStudents began preparations in January, soon after their fall production of the “Addams Family Musical.” After several days of nerve-wracking auditions, where more than 40 students tried out, the thespians began writing skits and choreographing dances. Coffeehouse has a long tradition of fun, with skits that include student impressions of teachers. It is also a main source of income, benefiting from ticket sales, concessions and an opportunity drawing, with help provided by parent volunteers.
\nAdvance tickets are $7 for students and $8 for nonstudents, $10 for adults and $20 for VIP seating at the door\/online. Tickets may be purchased on PointLomaHigh.com or at the PLHS Finance Office.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
