    * /*Is There Life After High School?*/
      <http://cvlt.org/78thSeason/highschool.php> - *April 18 - May 17 *
      This musical with script by Jeffrey Kindley and music by Craig
      Carnelia, is based on Ralph Keyes' 1976 book of the same name.
      Through artfully crafted songs and insightful monologues, the
      characters discover how much their experiences in high school have
      stuck with them through the years and formed who they became as
      adults. Musical numbers like "The Kid Inside", "Diary of a
      Homecoming Queen", "I'm Glad You Didn't Know Me" and "Beer" form a
      sweet, sometimes bittersweet nostalgic trip back to adolescence.
      /Is There Life After High School?/ is directed by Don Edelman,
      with musical director Regis Bookshar, and stars Pat Mazzarino,
      Sharon Lloyd, Don Bernardo, Libby Merriman, Steve Kay, Maggie
      Wise, Chris Hunter, Darlene Fowler and Eric Oswald. Tickets are
      $16 or $12 for students/seniors. Tickets On Sale Online Now!
