Bravo, Woodgrove!

Had enough of holiday movies by now? Then get ready to spend a suspense-filled evening with Woodgrove High School’s Grove Theatre company in “Moonshine Murders.” The action plays out in a Washington speakeasy in 1928 during prohibition. What is meant to be a roaring night of fun turns into a disaster when a murder—or two—comes to light.

Written by Terry Smith, adapted by Addie Schafer Benko, and produced by Stagecoach Theatre Company, this original work was adapted for a film noir student film project. The students helped write scenes, orchestrate songs, and film the performance—all while following COVID-19 guidelines and wearing clear face shields while performing. 

Mark your calendar for Dec. 10 at 6 p.m. for the one-night-only premiere at the Family Drive-In Theatre in Stephens City, VA.  If you can’t make it, buy the “pay-to-play” option under “items” on Woodgrove’s ticketing website and watch it on YouTube from the comfort of your home. Buy tickets at https://whsva.booktix.com/ for either option.
