The Brockport High School Drama Club will present its fall production of Something Rotten! at 7 p.m. on November 14 and 15, and at 2 p.m. on November 16 in the Brockport High School auditorium.
Set in the Renaissance era, the story follows the Bottom brothers, Nick and Nigel, who are desperate to write a hit play but find themselves overshadowed by the rockstar playwright of the time, William Shakespeare. In a quest to outshine the Bard, the brothers set out to create the world’s first musical, leading to a series of comedic and unexpected events.
Senior cast members include Jane Lloyd as Bea Bottom, Antonio Guerrero as Brother Jeremiah, Vivian Miller as Shylock, Maria Liberatore as Peter Quince, and Ben Fleisher as Robin. Juniors Nakoa Cotton and Braeden Christensen star as Nick and Nigel Bottom, joined by Angelina Mihm as Shakespeare, Lillian Porteus as Nostradamus, Bailey Amoroso as Portia, and Shelby Neilans as Minstrel.
More than 60 students are involved in the production, including cast, crew, and pit orchestra. Tickets are available for $15 online at brockportdrama.com or $20 at the door. The show is sure to entertain and enchant theatergoers with laughter, song, and Renaissance flair. Please be advised that this production includes the use of crude humor and adult language.
