MISS NELSON IS MISSING! Plays The Roxy Regional Theatre, March 28 And 29

Miss Nelson is Missing! is coming to the Roxy Regional Theatre for three performances on Friday, March 28, and Saturday, March 29.

Adapted by Joan Cushing from the beloved children's books by Harry Allard and James Marshall, Miss Nelson is Missing! follows the class of Room 207, the worst behaved in the whole school. Spitballs flying across the room, paper airplanes sailing every which way, and uncontrollable children send gentle, long-suffering Miss Nelson over the edge.

When Miss Nelson goes missing and is replaced by Viola Swamp, a no-nonsense substitute who assigns piles of homework, the students are taken by surprise but ultimately, through the process of searching for their beloved teacher, learn lessons of appreciation and respect.

Directed by Noel Rennerfeldt with music direction by Austin Shaw and choreography by Margaret Rennerfeldt, Miss Nelson is Missing! stars Mary-Molly Storey as Miss Nelson and features Brandon Cayetano, Sarah Donofrio, Caroline Rakestraw, Zachary Wilde and Nick Winkler.

Performances are at 7:00pm on Friday, March 28, and at 2:00pm and 7:00pm on Saturday, March 29.  In keeping with the theatre's opening night tradition, all tickets not pre-sold at the regular price will go on sale at 6:30pm on Friday, March 28, for a $5 Opening Night Rush.
