PIE student, Seth Emerson, Angela Rimany, Kaylee Brilhart and Jessy McClean will perform "Brother vs. Brother" on June 9
Parents and interested members of the public are invited to Pine Island Elementary on June 9, as 5th grade students in Mrs. Tina Garris’ class will perform “Brother vs. Brother.” Directed by Mrs. Garris and classroom volunteer George Miller, the three-act production depicts the lives of a North Carolina family split apart by the War Between the States.
The class has been practicing the play for several weeks, with many students earning more than one role. Parents have made costumes and some have donated clothing and other props. The performance will begin at 6 p.m. Admission is free. Call the school at 283-0505 with any questions.
