Mineola High School - Monologue Performance

On behalf of Mineola High School teachers Meg Messina and Ed Murray, it is a pleasure to invite you to a wonderful collaboration between the Musical Theater and the English AP students that will take place this Thursday, Dec. 23 from 9:45 to 11:00 a.m. in the Theater at Mineola. (HS auditorium).

The students of the Musical Theater class will be presenting original monologues which are based on true stories from the lives of the performers - some are touching, some funny, and some deeply personal.  Each performer collaborated with a student from the AP English class.  After a great deal of interviewing, story-telling and cooperative work, a specific event from the conversations was chosen and the English student dramatized those stories by writing the monologues.  The writers were sympathetic to their subjects while infusing the scenes with excitement and tension.

The final result of this collaboration is the performance on Thursday.
