The Norquay senior drama club is in rehearsals to stage the production called The Customer is Always Wrong, a play by Ian McWethy. 

The play is about four teenagers as they experience what it is like to have a job for the very first time. The work they do is being a waitress, a nanny, a movie theatre attendant, and a “passer-outer” of flyers for a restaurant, and the play follows their misadventures as they get their feet wet as employees.

 “We have a cast of nine, and a crew of three,” said Barry Chorneyko, teacher and drama coach. “We have actors from Grade 8 to Grade 12 in the cast. 

Laura Blender, another teacher at the school, and Chorneyko are the directors.

“We started with auditions back in November. We will be performing the play at the Region 4 Drama Festival on April 4, at SHHS (Sacred Heart High School) in Yorkton. 

“We will be performing the play at our 19th annual Dessert Theatre at Norquay School at the end of April. The show is about 40 min long,” Chorneyko said.

Among the cast members are Grade 12 students Keely Foster and Easton Raabel. Haley Griffith, also a Grade 12 student, is the stage manager.
