Hotchkiss High School presented four one-act plays last week in two performances on Wednesday and Thursday. Audiences were greatly entertained by the comedies. They were lots of fun and performed ably by the students.

The plays were "Good Business Sense" by Emmett Loverde, "Check, Please" by Jonathan Rand, "It's Not You, It's Me" by Don Zolidis and "The Audition" by Don Zolidis.

Lenore Cambria and Susan Hamrick directed the plays, with Cambria writing additional scenes for "Check, Please" and "It's Not You, It's Me," so more students could act in the plays.

Cambria also choreographed the curtain call complete with top hats to the theme from "Chorus Line." This tied-in with the last play, "The Audition," which was about auditioning for "Chorus Line."

"The Audition" featured musical numbers from Mandi Chermak, Rose Walker and Anna Ashmore.

Twenty-seven students performed in the plays.
