McNicholas Theatre presents Hope Springs
The McNicholas Theatre Department proudly announces its upcoming performance of Hope Springs. The play will run November 6-8 at McNicholas High School in the Jeanne Spurlock Theatre.
Hope Springs explores big issues for young people when a group of teenagers stage a rebellion after being sent to a remote island for "behavior modification." When all communications with the correctional facility are lost, two educational inspectors visit the island to investigate, and what they find is more than they bargained for.
This show explores themes of mental health, identity, and leadership.
General Admission $10
This show is appropriate for older audiences as it does include some darker themes.

Some of life's greatest lessons cannot be found in a textbook. They are discovered standing beneath the ancient arches of the Colosseum, gazing up at masterpieces in Vatican City, or watching the sun set along the Seine River. This spring, 43 McNicholas students experienced those moments firsthand, returning home with a deeper appreciation for art, history, culture, and the world around them.

Nine McNicholas students traveled to Buenos Aires this summer for the school's first Sister School Exchange with Instituto Nuestra Señora de Las Nieves, building on friendships formed when Argentine students visited McNicholas earlier this year. Through living with host families, attending classes, and experiencing Argentina's rich culture and history, students discovered that the most meaningful lessons come from stepping beyond their comfort zones and embracing connections that transcend borders.
