Adrian Community Theater gears up for a June production
The Adrian Community Theater is gearing up for another production. A.C.T will be performing “Don’t Wake Him, Hand Me the Shovel” on June 7, 8, 9th in the West Gymnasium of the Adrian High School. The play was written by Pat Cook and can best be described as a fast-paced farce that combines horror movies, ghost hunters and some confused television reporters. This cast has been working hard and having fun rehearsing this hilarious play. This will be the fourth performance that A.C.T has brought our community.
