Pistols and Posies

By Isabella Cross

The title Pistols and Posies made perfect sense after watching the performance. A mob boss by the name of Primo Malvone had tricked his wife into thinking that he “went straight” and he is no longer supplying booze. He had to fake a flower business to cover up his illegal activities. But there was another mob boss in town who wanted to take down her competition. She went by the name of Mama Mia. Mama Mia’s plan to get Primo arrested but it turned on her and she was the one locked up, while Primo’s kids made sure that their father wouldn’t go back to the life that got him into all this trouble in the first place.

Anyone who saw this year’s play will agree with me that this performance trumped all. You could easily tell how much hard work and effort was put in and that it certainly paid off. The whole room was filled with laughter throughout all the performances and it deserved no less. There were a plethora of accents that stole the show which included Camille Uribe’s Italian accent, Sarah Singleton’s mob boss enactment, and Brandon Bryant’s humorous Irish imitation.

“This was a Broadway-level play,” said Sarah Singleton, Senior.

This play certainly did not disappoint, and it was wonderful to see the talented students at this school have fun and accomplish such a memorable performance.
