Timberlane thespians double their school vacation fun
By Meghan Carey
Staff writer
PLAISTOW — The Timberlane Players have two new accents — cockney and Oxfordian.
Not only do the leads of Timberlane Regional High School's upcoming spring musical have to remember the lines to "My Fair Lady," they also have to use their new accents to recite them.
"Getting the kids to learn an English accent was tricky," director and English teacher Eric Constantineau said. "But it's a fun challenge."
The 50-student double cast is rehearsing this week during spring vacation to get enough stage time for both casts without the distraction of classes and homework. Constantineau said he prefers two casts to involve more students, but that means it's more stressful.
There are also 40 students in the show's orchestra, and 15 others with the technical crew.
"This isn't a vacation; this is 'My Fair Lady' boot camp," Lauren Paley said.

| It was the most awesome play I've ever seen the HS produce! The acting, the chorus, the pit, choreography, everything was fantastic. Next year they plan to do West Side Story. Very ambitious. Don't know how they'll top themselves! |
