Description

Leigh High School Theater Department is proud to present these two one-act plays which promise to be a special treat for Cambrian residents and theater lovers alike.

- The Actor's Nightmare by Christopher Durang -
Inspired by the recurring, performance anxiety nightmare of an unprepared actor taking the stage without their lines or knowledge of the plot, The Actor's Nightmare is a comedic journey with George, an accountant, who finds himself on an empty stage, not certain how he got there. Just a few moments 'til curtain, he learns he's the understudy, and tonight's his big night.

- Bury the Dead by Irwin Shaw -
First staged in 1936 to great acclaim, Bury the Dead takes place during 'the second year of the war that is to begin tomorrow night'. While a military burial detail goes about its sad duties, the dead soldiers shockingly begin to rise up, pleading not to be buried. Word of their insurrection spreads rapidly - the dead will not yield so easily. In a series of touching scenes the dead men talk with loved ones of the days of living, now lost forever.
