Spring drama production: en passant

Friday, May 16 at 8:00 p.m.
Saturday, May 17 at 6:30 p.m.
Bergmann Theater, Wilkie center for the performing arts

Join us for the annual Governor’s Academy Spring Drama Production. It is a very exciting theater season this year, as our production was written and directed by our very own Avery Colgate ‘25. Avery spent a year wrestling with the script before donning the director’s hat, and even taking on one of the roles themselves.

This dark comedy has a very strong script and is extremely well-cast. The story is of a high-society woman who is dead set on throwing a lavish affair for her son’s birthday, and perhaps to create some sparks between her son and a dinner guest. During the evening, her rather expensive necklace is taken, and chaos ensues as guests search for the thief. 

Some language and situations may not be appropriate for young children. Contact Arts faculty Geoff Brace for more information.
