Ah, high school plays! Those drab, dusty
rehashes of Romeo and Juliet, Our Town, Oklahoma! You remember—with the one cute boy and girl destined for
Hollywood (or at least local dinner theater) and the rest of the senior class
pressed into service for the rest of the roles and/or scenery-painting.
But not for one high school in New Jersey.
Fuh-get-uh-bout-it!
The students of North Bergen High School
recently took on Ridley Scott’s 1979 film ALIEN for their school play project
and the performance earlier this month was nothing short of spectacular! Even
the trailer was professionally done! Amazing!
And lest you think this was the creation of
a rich, charter-school environment, think again. The kids managed all of this
with a budget of just $5000. Take a look.
If, for some reason the clip won't play, you can find the YouTube video (by the Geek Twins) here.https://youtu.be/Haao8dujs-0. Give these creative kids a shout-out!
Cheers, Donna
