A Magical Opening Night: A Monster Calls Takes the Stage! #207Now #theatre #drama @mainewestfab @mainewestdrama

 

What an unforgettable opening night! Our spring play, A Monster Callsbased on the novel by Patrick Ness and adapted by Sally Cookson and Adam Peck, roared to life with a performance that was raw, powerful, and deeply moving. Every moment on stage was packed with emotion, thanks to a cast and crew who poured their hearts into telling this beautiful and haunting story.

The audience was captivated from the first light cue to the final bow. From the stunning visuals and imaginative staging to the emotional depth brought by our student performers, it was clear: this is a show that stays with you.

Huge shoutout to our dedicated director, Ms. Judy Klingner, costume designer, Ms. Marquecia Jordan, and the costume crew, the tech team led by Mr. Peter McManus, and every student who brought this story to life. We’re so proud of what you've created! If you haven’t seen it yet, don’t miss your chance!
