'It's not really work for us, so in our free time, me personally, I just go back and forth to the script, and then coming here after a long day, it's just refreshing to come, and the actors are excited as well. It's a working relationship, and as soon as you get the ball rolling, you forget that it's even work,' said Mike Harper, one of the play's directors.
The students rehearsed for the last several months to bring the show to life for the festival.
