"Parents Just Don't Understand" - BHS Drama Club performance Nov. 22-23
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.
"Remember when Mom tried to teach you to drive? Or decided to help you pick out your wardrobe? How about those family vacations when you were stuck in the backseat for hours on end with your annoying sibling, heading for a camping trip to the middle of nowhere….and then your precious iPod suddenly died.
"This collection of comedy sketches promises to keep you in stitches."
Tickets will be available at the door.
