The Rhinelander High School/NCSS drama students are taking the stage again for six performances beginning March 1. Due to the large number of auditions, directors created two casts, (see below) which will perform on alternate days.

In Deceiving Granny,  Newlyweds Sam and Margaret Howard discover they are in line to inherit $3.5 million from his great-grandmother whom he has never met. But before she is willing to add them to her will she wants to meet Sam and his new wife face to face to make sure they are “worthy.” Of course, nothing goes smoothly, especially since Sam is hiding an expensive diamond necklace for his boss, two burglars mistake their home for another, and the neighbor’s vague grandmother has wandered off…and may be somewhere in their house! Their friends, Rob and Kelsey, go to extremes to help the newlyweds when they think the “real” great-grandmother has died after eating peanuts. With Rob dressed and acting like an old lady, can the two couples pull off their scam in spite of a curious cop and cautious attorney? The funny and frantic action never slows in this farce!

The play runs March 1 through March 5 at 7 p.m. and Sunday, March 6 at 1 p.m. at the RHS auditorium. Tickets are $5.
