Prospect High: Brooklyn
fundraiser for IB HL students trip to NYC

Southwest High School was chosen by playwright/actor, Daniel Robert Sullivan, to perform a new play: "Prospect High: Brooklyn."
"After an Equity workshop with Roundabout (New York) in April 2014, performance rights to Prospect High were granted to 24 individually selected public schools for a rolling national tour, the first of its kind at a secondary-school level."
Margaret Berg's IB HL theatre students will be directing this play, and it will be performed in the Black Box on Feb. 24, 25 and 26 at 7 pm.

Southwest High School presents: Guys and Dolls, music and lyrics by Frank Loesser and book by Jo Swerling and Abe Burrows.

​"Guys and Dolls" is a musical romantic comedy involving the unlikeliest of Manhattan pairings: a high-rolling gambler and a puritanical missionary, a showgirl dreaming of the straight-and-narrow and a crap game manager who is anything but. Set in the Manhattan of Damon Runyon’s 1920s and 30s short stories, Guys and Dolls won multiple Tony awards for its original production and revivals on Broadway.
