On Feb. 28, March 1, and March 2, the cast and crew of the one-act play, “This Is a Test,” dazzled the community with three perfor- mances. It was directed by Joshua Hurd.
The play was entered in the regional one-act competition at Thornton Academy on March 7 and March 8 in competition with other local high schools. On March 8, Gorham’s entry advanced to the state One Act Festival on March 21 and 22 at Camden Hills Regional High School.
The play tells a day in the life of Alan and his classmates who are high school students in the 1980s. Through dialogue as well as dance and music, they tell the story of the pressures of high school life and the chal- lenges that they face from Alan’s perspective.
The cast was terrific and the play was an enjoyable mix of angst and humor.
