"Parents Just Don't Understand" - BHS Drama Club performance Nov. 22-23

Posted by Fred Steiner on November 14, 2013 - 11:04pm

The comedy "Parents Just Don't Understand" will be presented by the Bluffton High School Drama Club Friday and Saturday, Nov. 22-23, in the middle school cafetorium. 

The drama is best described this way:

"The hip-hop standard of the 1980s said it best: “There’s no need to argue, parents just don’t understand.”

"This show is a collection of hilarious (and often too close to the truth) scenes that all families are going to be able to relate to. It’s a light-hearted look at a “greatest hit list” of classic family moments.
