Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde

As Mr. Spivy told you in class, he is currently in a play called Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde at the Actors Guild of Parkersburg. The director has agreed to let any of Mr. Spivy's students to attend the last dress rehearsal of the show for free tomorrow (Wednesday) evening.

The play is rated PG-13 for a reason. The content is dark and creepy. Talk of dissecting a prostitute who had been raped occurs (though there is no actual scenes with sexuality). There is some violence. There are a few cuss words. Understand that this is NOT a school sanctioned event. Do not be upset with Mr. Spivy if you later decide the content was too mature for eighth graders. Knowing what many eighth graders watch, I do not believe it is too mature. However, that is just my opinion.

The performance starts at 8:00, so please be there by 7:50. The address for the theater is 724 Market St., Parkersburg. While there is no dress code, it is proper etiquette to go to the theater in "church clothes." The show lasts about 1:50.

If you are interested in purchasing tickets for any performance (this weekend and next), please visit www.actors-guild.com

If you have any questions, please message me through LiveGrades.

Mr. Spivy
