Crumpled Classics Synopsis
With first-year teacher Ms. Collins out sick, a quirky cadre of students takes it upon themselves to pull together the school’s annual “Classics on Parade,” acting out famous stories that they studied in their literature class. The students, however, decide to make the stories relevant to today’s audiences, with hilarious results! The authors are surely rolling over in their graves, and Ms. Collins is terrified of losing her job, especially when the principal calls the superintendent in the middle of the show! You’ll love the hysterics of these plays-within-a-play. Romeo and Juliet set in a fast-food place! Frankie Stein is trying to assemble the perfect prom date! A second-rate theatrical agent becomes the Phantom of the Opera so he can force a good deal! A desperate Shirley Holmes and Joni Watson jump-start a new detective agency! And teenage slacker Artie surprised his unimpressed mother with a sword he pulled from a stone! It’s a comedy treat sprinkled with outrageous takes on some very familiar characters.
