Wiley and the Hairy Man: Melrose High School Drama Club Production

The Melrose High School Drama Club proudly presents Wiley
and the Hairy Man on December 6th,
2013 at 7:30 PM,
December 7th at 2:00 PM and 7:30PM and December 8 at 2:00 PM. This “Theatre for Young Audiences” play will be
performed at the Melrose Performing Arts Center located at the Melrose
Veterans Memorial
Middle School, 350 Lynn Fells
Parkway, Melrose, MA. Tickets will
be available at the door and are $10.00 for adults and $7.00 for children and
seniors.

Set deep within the mysterious Tombigbee
Swamp, Wiley and the Hairy Man
tells the spine-tingling tale of a young fatherless boy, his conjure-woman
mother, his faithful dog, and the Hairy Man who haunts Wiley's days and dreams.
Through rhythm and rhyme, a chorus creates the mystery of the swamp. The magic
of this play is not in fairy dust, it is in the soil—the magic of survival, the
magic of the earth and the mud of the swamp. In an exciting duel of wits, Wiley
learns to rely upon his own resources and conquer two villains: the Hairy Man
and his own fears. A Theatre for Young Audiences piece, Wiley and the Hairy Man
is appropriate for children of all ages and is the most widely produced TYA
piece in the country.
