The survey will be sent through final forms to all families of middle and high school students. We ask that you please take a few minutes to complete the survey in an attempt to better understand areas of strength and areas of need so that we can work towards the best possible positive school climate for all families, students and staff. Students and staff will also be asked to complete a survey in the next couple of weeks. Thank you for taking the time to complete this survey.

The Centerburg High School Drama Department will present Clue on Friday, March 10
and Saturday, March 11 at 7:30 p.m. and again on Sunday, March 12 at 2:30 p.m. in the
Centerburg High School auditorium at 3782 Columbus Road.
Based on the iconic 1985 Paramount movie which was inspired by the classic Hasbro
board game, Clue is a hilarious farce-meets-murder mystery. The tale begins at a remote
mansion, where six mysterious guests assemble for an unusual dinner party where murder and
blackmail are on the menu. When their host turns up dead, they all become suspects. Led by
Wadsworth—the butler—Miss Scarlett, Professor Plum, Mrs. White, Mr. Green, Mrs. Peacock,
and Colonel Mustard race to find the killer as the body count stacks up. Clue is the comedy
whodunit that will leave both cult-fans and newcomers in stitches as they try to figure
out…WHO did it, WHERE, and with WHAT!
Senior cast members include Logan Costa, Judith Dettmar, Emilee Fletcher, Alyssa
Harry, Jasper Faught, Autumn Kennedy, Casey Kennedy, Madigan Kennedy, Max Maffett, and
Annelise Nash. Junior cast members are Maddie Donabauer and Kyle Schmidt. Sophomore cast
members include Carson Browning, Victoria Browning, Chloe Evans, Ashley Moore, and
Caroline Nash. Freshman cast members are Rigby Arter and Asher Kennedy.
Stage and tech crews are made up of juniors Casey Montgomery and Riley Skillman,
sophomores Dylan Meier and Emma Ocker, freshmen HayLee Plakis and Emma Parsisson, and
8 th grader Tesla Blankenship.
Tickets for Clue are $7 for students and seniors and $10 for adults. Tickets can be
purchased at the door on the day of the show, beginning an hour prior to the start of the show.
All tickets are general admission, and no passes or discounts will be accepted. Please note that
this show includes references to adult behaviors and language—in addition to murder—and may
not be suitable for all audiences.
Clue is adapted from the screenplay by Jonathan Lynn and is written by Sandy Rustin,
and it includes additional material by Hunter Foster and Eric Price and original music composed
by Michael Holland. Clue is based on the Paramount Pictures Motion Picture based on the
Hasbro board game CLUE.
