Dear Parents, families, friends, faculty and students of Metro Prep,

You are cordially invited to JOHN, this year’s school production of Annie Baker’s award-winning play.

JOHN is the mysterious story of a young couple in trouble.  In an attempt to rekindle their relationship, they travel to Gettysburg, Pennsylvania and find a quaint bed and breakfast for some rest and relaxation.  However, the weekend does not go as planned.  The house is haunted and the ghosts of everyone’s past come out into the candlelight and dance with the ghosts of Gettysburg and the dolls in their nightmares.

Featuring A. Zigomanis, R. Levine, N. Mendiratta and C. Blicker.

Assistant Direction by L. Goodman.  Production Management by V. Devanandhan.  Music by J.S. Bach.
