The Highland Drama Club will present, "The Mysterious Case of the Missing Ring" by Janie Downey Maxwell at 6:00pm on Thursday, April 7th at the Pacific Auditorium. The play will be directed by Amanda Rice and is for all ages and gratefully accepted will be donations for future productions of the Drama Club as well as canned goods to benefit Project Blessing.
The royal ring is missing, and the queen won't sleep until the royal detectives (all 13 of them!) find it. You've never met a more eclectic and eccentric group all in one play as they scour Queendom in search of the royal ring. The chatty maids follow the harried queen around while the devious butler spouts suspiciously evil laughs every time a clue goes awry.
Special thanks go to the Rotary Club, RCLC Rising Tide Live!, Coastal Douglas Arts and Business Alliance and those many folks who assisted.
