LC launches space comedy
The Lewis and Clark High School drama department will perform “Revenge of the Space Pandas,” tonight through Saturday at 7 p.m. in the LCHS Auditorium.
The family-friendly production is about a boy genius, his pet sheep, and the girl next door, who fly across the galaxy on a crazy adventure, where wackiness ensues. A flier from LC describes it as “fun for the whole family… if you like the irreverent humor of Shrek or the absurdity of Monty Python, you’ll love this story.”
The “Space Pandas” cast includes: Dylan Lockwood, Nick McConnell, Katie Gross-Pattison, Jose Johnson, Kiley Cole, Kaitlyn Dimak, Jesse Elquist, Keyonna Knight, Cameron Brow, Mike SanMiguel, Liz McDonnell, Max Chumov, and Brianna Broadwater .
Tickets are $5 per person and are available at the door.
