On Thursday night, OHS\u2019s Rose Curtain Players, under the direction of Carolyn Greer, performed their debut of Peter and the Starcatcher<\/em>, a Tony Award-winning musical comedy about how a young orphan became Peter Pan. The cast and crew had been preparing this production since December, and it took over 40 students, parents, and teachers to help bring Peter and the Starcatcher <\/em>to the stage. Keeashia Castlen, who played the role of Hawking Clam, says the rehearsals were \u201chectic, tiresome, and extremely busy.\u201d However, Castlen reassures she loved being part of the show. \u201cMy favorite part of being in Peter and the Starcatcher<\/em> was getting close to new people,\u201d She says. \u201cI loved all the funny moments we shared together as a group.\u201d<\/p>\n Parker Medley, an attendee of Peter and the Starcatcher<\/em> and a member of Greer\u2019s theatre class, says he liked the show so much he decided to volunteer as an usher so he could experience seeing the production again. \u201cI can\u2019t pick my favorite part of the show,\u201d He says. \u201cI loved the performance of every cast member.\u201d Parker also says seeing Peter and the Starcatcher<\/em> made him want to audition for the next show, as long as it\u2019s not a musical.<\/p>\n Peter and the Starcatcher<\/em> was not OHS\u2019s only big production this year, and it is certainly not their last. Earlier this year at the Riverpark Center, the Rose Curtain Players performed The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (Abridged Revised)<\/em>, a three-man show starring Forest Clark, Hayden Elliot, and Tucker Greer. Before the school year is through, the theatre department will also perform William Shakespeare\u2019s comedy Much Ado About Nothing <\/em>in April, <\/em>and four different one-act plays in May.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" by Nolia Williams (9): special to the Digital Devil On Thursday night, OHS\u2019s Rose Curtain…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":32,"featured_media":8982,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[392],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8981","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-happening-at-ohs"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/digitaldevil.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8981","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/digitaldevil.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/digitaldevil.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/digitaldevil.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/32"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/digitaldevil.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=8981"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/digitaldevil.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8981\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8983,"href":"https:\/\/digitaldevil.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8981\/revisions\/8983"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/digitaldevil.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/8982"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/digitaldevil.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=8981"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/digitaldevil.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=8981"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/digitaldevil.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=8981"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
