Bluffton High School's fall play is "Born to be Wild" by Bryan Starchman, with performances at 7:30 p.m., Friday and Saturday, Nov. 16 and 17, in the Bluffton Middle School cafetorium. Tickets are adults general admission $3, and student general admission $1. Tickets are available at the door.
Ever wonder why your cat acts like he’s king of the world? Or why flamingos stand on one leg?
Have you ever imagined what a spider would have to say to a fly just before devouring him, or what “small talk” sounds like when a cannibalistic female praying mantis goes on a date with a naïve male praying mantis?
Well, playwright, Bryan Starchman, has given the animals of the world a voice in this hilarious new comedy. You will get to see and hear what animals really think about us humans.
Stretch your imagination as you get ready to walk on the wild side. Watch for photos and a video coming soon on The Icon.
