“Our production of A Lighter Shade of Noir was a great success! Our audience raved about the show, both how fun the story was and how great our student actors portrayed their parts. This play got one of the best responses of my 6 years here at Strack Intermediate. Thank you so much Theatrefolk for having such great scripts available for our middle school community.”
Cheryl Robinson, Strack Intermediate
