Poway Days Olde Tyme Melodrama

'A Perplexing Puzzle for Miss Penelope's Pupils" takes place in Poway Valley's one-room schoolhouse, where a new handyman in town is making much need repairs. With one eye ogling the lovely teacher and the other coveting funds raised to pay poor Farmer Brown's hospital bill, Willy Filchit isn't the nice church-going, upstanding citizen he purports to be. Who will thwart his nefarious plans? the rich and handsome town doctor, Ken E. Curzem, or Miss Penelope's pupils? It's a perplexing puzzle. Come BOO! the villain and cheer YAY! when good conquers evil.

PowPAC's melodrama is appropriate for all ages and, before each performance, two lucky children (age 6+) will be chosen to appear as additional pupils. Children wishing to be considered should arrive 20 minutes prior to showtime and have a parent's permission. Wearing plain blues jeans is helpful, but not required.
