For the duration of high school, I was a leader for my younger peers by volunteering over 400 hours with Shallowater’s Middle School One Act Play program.

I saw “Fools” by Neil Simon on Friday, November 3rd, performed by Bartlett High School. This play is set in the rural Ukrainian village of Kulyenchikov, where everyone who has stayed more than 24 hours is stupid. The *quote-un-quote* Doctor Zubritsky hires a schoolteacher to try and teach his teenage daughter who JUST learned how to sit. If he stays more than 24 hours, he will become one of them. He tries to marry Sophia, the Doctors daughter, but the Count, whose family put the spell on.…

The set is very plain, but powerful in producing an optical illusion that captivates the audience. At first, it is hard to determine if…
