At the end of this month, Long Beach Poly’s drama students are performing their second production this year, Once on This Island Jr., a younger adaptation of Lynn Ahren’s one-act play called Once on This Island. This play is an adaptation of the novel My Love, My Love; or The Peasant Girl by Rosa Guy, setting the story in the Caribbean. The story has some elements from the well-known tragedies Romeo and Juliet and The Little Mermaid. The show times of the play are March 24, 30, 31, and April 1 at 7:30 P.M. There are also showings on March 24 right after the Intercultural Fair, and March 25 at 2:30 P.M.
Tickets are being sold for $8 per student and $12 per adult. Tickets can be purchased at the banker, room 851 and online. Snacks will be available for purchase at the play.
