On November 2 through 4, Blue Devil drama was very busy presenting the play, “One Stoplight Town.” It is a story set in a town so small that they’ve never had a stoplight before. The play features a cranky grocer who is afraid of change, an insightful handywoman, a couple of old geezers who watch over everyone and many other citizens of this tiny town as well as a working stoplight. The messages from the play—that change is inevitable, we all can do big things in our own time and there should always be time to slow down and take in everything life offers us— were presented with humor and heart. While Mrs. Amy Corser directed the production, the students in the cast and crew brought so many details to life with the set, props and acting. Thank you to everyone who attended.
