A little over a week from now, our Knoxville High School's drama club will produce and perform a show from the 1950s entitled, "It Happened on Route 66" from the Pioneer Drama. Performances will be hosted in the Knoxville High School auditorium at 7:30 p.m. both Friday March 8th and Saturday March 9th. Friday night, there will be a dessert reception and drinks served afterwards in the commons area. Adult tickets are $5, students are $3 with children 2 and under free. Get your kicks on Route 66! America's most famous highway is the backdrop for this sweet romantic comedy set in an Arizona diner in 1955. As the play opens, Sally, a young, celebrity-obsessed waitress, can't wait for the wedding that day between glamorous movie star Lovey Lamour and crooner Johnny Jerome. So you can imagine Sally's surprise when a mysterious customer turns out to be Lovey herself! Lovey tells Sally that she fled the ceremony and was heading east on Route 66 when her Ferrari broke down. With the press hot on her trail, Lovey is forced to hide out at the diner until her car can get fixed. But how can she possibly keep her identity a secret? Simple, Sally says. Pose as a waitress! Sally teaches the temperamental star everything she knows about waitressing, but between the crazy diner lingo and the demanding customers, Lovey soon finds that the job is way more difficult than she expected. To make matters worse, their entire scheme threatens to unravel when a nosy news photographer discovers Lovey's identity and tips Johnny off as to her location. With a cast of hilarious characters including a short-tempered cook, Sally's geeky boyfriend, the world's worst auto mechanic, and a pre-fame Elvis Presley, this affectionate tribute to the golden age of diners is guaranteed to warm your heart as it tickles your funny bone. Pack your bags! It's time to hit the Mother Road—of laughter!"

Mable Woolsey Families, we will have a spirit week next week for our "Kids Heart Challenge"! This will be posted in our weekly newsletter as well.
