Although the road to true love never runs smooth, with these two headstrong romantics holding the reins, love's journey is as bumpy as a surrey ride down a country road. That they will succeed in making a new life together we have no doubt, and that this new life will begin in a brand-new state provides the ultimate climax to the triumphant OKLAHOMA! The music and lyrics have proven to be some of the best in musical theatre with songs that include "Oh What a Beautiful Morning", "The Surrey with the Fringe on Top", People Will Say We're in Love, "I Can't Say No", "Oklahoma! and many more, making this a musical treat for the whole family.

2010-2011 Student Directed Production A Little Murder Never Hurt Anybody by Ron Bernas Directed by Lacey Ballard February 3, 4, 5 at 7:30pm Tickets $7 with reservation* $12 at the door For Reservations Call All performances at West Seattle High School, 3000 California Ave SW Synopsis It’s New Year’s Eve at the Perry mansion. Julia and Matthew Perry seem to have it all. Still, Matthew wants something more -- to be rid of his wife, Julia, so he can have some real fun! He resolves to murder Julia by the end of the year, and tells her so. She vows to stay alive, and tells him so. And so the game begins and of course hilarity ensues. While
Julia cleverly dodges Matthew’s devious murder attempts, the Perry
friends and staff are dying off mysteriously. It seems Matthew is
successful in murdering everyone but Julia. As the bodies are falling,
dim-witted daughter Bunny contemplates calling off her wedding to
unwitting Donald since all the intended gift-bearing guests are dying.
Enter Detective Plotnik -- a Sam Spade reincarnation who suspects
everyone, but hasn’t a clue. That is, not until Donald stumbles upon
Julia and gentlemanly butler Buttram in what Donald mistakenly perceives
as a compromising situation. Donald jumps to the conclusion that Julia
is the murderer -- trying to murder Matthew! 12 Angry People

Synopsis 12 Angry Men (1957) is the gripping, penetrating, and engrossing examination of a diverse group of twelve jurors who are uncomfortably brought together to deliberate after hearing the 'facts' in a seemingly open-and-shut murder trial case. They retire to a jury room to do their civic duty and serve up a just verdict for the indigent minority defendant (with a criminal record) whose life is in the balance. The film is a powerful indictment, denouncement and expose of the trial by jury system. The frightened, teenaged defendant is on trial, as well as the jury and the American judicial system with its purported sense of infallibility, fairness and lack of bias. Alternatively, the film could also be viewed as commentary on McCarthyism, Fascism, or Communism (threatening forces in the 50s). One of the film's posters described how the workings of the judicial process can be disastrous: "LIFE IS IN THEIR HANDS - DEATH IS ON THEIR MINDS! It EXPLODES Like 12 Sticks of Dynamite."
