The Long Beach High School Theatre Company proudly presented The Man Who Came to Dinner by George S. Kaufman and Moss Hart. The classic comedy is set in 1938 in a small Ohio town, unfolding inside the home of Mr. and Mrs. Stanley.

The production followed the play’s original structure:
                    Act One – Scene 1: A December morning; Scene 2: About a week later.
                    Act Two – Another week has passed; Christmas Eve.
                    Act Three – Christmas morning.

This year’s show featured a cast of 35 students and a backstage crew of 14. The production team was led by Director Mr. Alexander Austein, Producer Mr. Scott Scheinson, Student Director Sabrina Moy, and Stage Managers Mateo Flores and Tab Freeney. Students delivered three outstanding performances on November 20, 21, and 22.

“Our incredibly passionate and skilled students brought remarkable life to the stage, captivating everyone in the audience from start to finish,” said Julia Lang-Shapiro, Long Beach Director of Media, Visual and Performing Arts.
