9 One Acts Bring Laughter to C/S On Thursday, January 28 the Corsica-Stickney drama department took their comedic one act play, The Brothers Grimm Spectaculathon, to the Pepsi-Cola Theatre in Mitchell. The One Act play festival hosts seven different schools. Three judges attend all of the plays in the same day. Each judge is asked to rank the plays first through fifth with everything after fifth being a sixth place ranking. Then they use a matrix to figure out which two of the seven plays will move on to the state festival which is held in Sioux Falls on February 4-6. The cast and crew did a wonderful job on their performance and received two second place finishes and a sixth place finish. This did not qualify them for state but they ended the season with a fourth place finish. The judges also have the opportunity to give out Outstanding Actor awards to students who exemplify great acting. Two Corsica-Stickney students were given this award, seniors Alec Burns and Daisy Van Genderen.

In this fast pace comedy, two interviewers try to get one more student enrolled so they meet their quota and keep their jobs. This sounds like a job that should be easy enough but when you have to go to the wait listed kids things can get interesting. From practicing vampires to practicing magicians these crazy characters kept the interviewers on their toes. ************************************************** Alyee & Josh 2-Keeley 3-Alyssa 4-Kassidy 5-Hannah & Sam 6-Alyee & Abby 7-Hannah & Josh
