Everyday during third hour twenty students gather with english and theatre teacher Christine DeFrancesco in the PAC to attend their Theatre Workshop Class. A class that teachers students skills they need to know to be successful in the theatre world. With the COVID-19 pandemic Huntley High School has moved into a completely online learning. How is a theatre class supposed to go on with no stage, no physical contact, and no in person practice? The answer is monologues.

“Stranded Views from Quarantine” is a monologue play by Stage Partner Playwrights which explores different stories from those trapped on a cruise ship during the beginning of the pandemic.

“These monologues are intended for school drama programs and online class- room/student use; permission and/or distribution is not required for those purposes. All other rights are reserved by the individual authors,” Stage Partner Playwrights said.

Each of the students in Theatre Workshop was assigned a monologue to preform form this play. Here are their performances.

“Mine” written by Adam Szymkowicz and preformed by Peyton Reed
