North Fort Myers Theater Program

Stage actors have to be nimble and quick. Castmates forget lines. Props aren’t where they’re supposed to be. Things go wrong, but the show must go on, sometimes forcing the cast and crew to make it up on the fly. That’s the crux of “The Play That Goes Wrong,” onstage in Red Knight Theatre at North Fort Myers High School this weekend.

This week, four shows open, five close, 11 continue their runs and there are three limited engagements at Southwest Florida equity and community theaters.

Lehigh Senior High School had a huge night on Friday at the High School Musical Theatre Awards. Its spring show, “Hadestown Teen Edition,” was selected by a panel of five judges as this year’s winner in the coveted category of “Overall Production of a Musical.” The awards didn’t stop there.

Mia Zottolo has enjoyed some incredible roles. She played Katherine Howard in “Six.” Eurydice in “Hadestown Teen Edition.” Judas Iscariot in “Jesus Christ Superstar.” The Leading Player in “Pippin.” It wasn’t always that way.

Tracy Halloran-Scott’s son had one lofty goal for his senior year at North Fort Myers High. She did everything she could to help him achieve it.
