Play Preview: Trial of the Wicked Witch

Sixth grader, Maysa, rehearses with a volunteer.

This week I had the opportunity to interview a couple of students from the cast of Trial Of The Wicked Witch. The Trial of the Wicked Witch is a play Asheville Middle school is putting on. They will be performing on December 15th & 16th at 7pm. The performance will be in the school gym, and you will buy tickets at the front door. Adults will be $6, and children will be $3.
​
A 7th grade student, Kara (7th), said that she enjoys being able to express herself, and is excited for her family to see the show! When I interviewed some of the cast, I could tell they were hard at work and were ready for the play. The cast has been rehearsing for two months now but have been having after school rehearsal for a week. Lonna (6th) said her favorite part about he play being able to act with the other kids. I would definitely recommend coming to see the play because when observing I could see the humor and excitement; Elsja (7th) would agree because she said ¨The play is funny, weird, and the first play at the new building.” See you there!
