Meanwhile, three high school kids try to come in and try to use it to sell a monster movie. Randal Ramirez, the SMS OAP director, describes the play, “Overall, it is a silly show, and has lots of entertaining back and forth jokes.” The SMS one act team competed against two other teams, Seagraves and Tahoka. Out of the eleven cast members, eight of them received acting awards. Watson Evans won best actor.
