The first indoor show of the school year will be Vintage Hitchcock: A Live Radio Play by Joe Landry. Performances will be Thursday-Saturday, November 19-21 at 8 p.m. in the auditorium. There is NOT a Sunday matinee for this show. (Please note that this show performs during the first weekend of Fall/Thanksgiving break.) The play is by the same author and has the same format as A Christmas Carol: A Live Radio Play that was performed at Temple High in December 2019.
Because of COVID requirements, all seats will be reserved and properly spaced. Because all seats are reserved, students will not be able to check out tickets to sell. Tickets are available online at CentralTexasTickets.com or from the Temple ISD Fine Arts Office. Available seats are shown in green on the ticketing website.
Spies, murder, love, and other trademarks of Alfred Hitchcock come to life in the style of a 1950s radio broadcast of the master of suspense's earlier films. With "The Lodger," "Sabotage" and "The 39 Steps," Vintage Hitchcock: A Live Radio Play is a triple feature, complete with vintage commercials, that recreates a daring train chase, a serial killer's ominous presence, and a devastating explosion through the magic of live sound effects and musical underscoring.
Cast and production staff are listed on the show's Information Page.
