Buffalo Grove High School will present its spring play, "Mother Hicks," today (Thursday) through Saturday in the school's theater.
Performances begin at 7 p.m. Thursday, 7:30 p.m. Friday and 2 p.m. Saturday.
Presented through poetry and sign language, "Mother Hicks," by playwright Suzan Zeder, is set in a small southern Illinois town during the Great Depression.
The play is told through the eyes and hands of Tuc, a deaf-mute (played by deaf Hersey High School senior Shannon Kennedy). The touching story of redemption and acceptance explores the prejudices of a small community, the earthly magic of a medicine woman (BGHS senior Karen Loda) and a young orphan girl's (BGHS sophomore Ronit Kazan) search for a family of her own.
Additional cast members include the following BGHS students: Samantha Gold, Andrea Vesecky, Devin Kowal, Charlie Dobson, Doug Murman, Michelle Zlatkin, Curtis Pomilia, Annie Sauter, Julie Baird, Lauren Buxbaum, Jessica Layden, Brian McIntyre, Cristina Rebellon, Renee Reizman, Colleen Sinclair and Michelle Witter.
Staff members from Hersey's deaf education program will serve as interpreters.
The director is Elizabeth Smalley. The scenic/lighting designer and technical director is Charles Mahlman. Debbie Andres is makeup/costume coordinator. Sign language interpreters are Colleen Bajalis, Susan Sotnick, and Kathy Wenner, and the house manager is Betsy Ludemann.
