Just what people are willing to do for free money is at the heart of Burlington High School’s final dramatic production of the season, “All Out.”
With contestants vying for a $100,000 grand prize, the show’s “national broadcast” will be Friday and Saturday in the BHS auditorium at 7 p.m. Tickets are $5 and available at the door.
The show covers the first prime time showing of the fictitious game show “All Out,” with five contestants picked from the audience to try and win prizes along the way to $100,000.
En route to that, though, the morality of what the show is asking – and what those contestants will and will not put on the line – comes into question.
The five contestants are played by Caitlin Fallon (Mary Rosenberg), Jessica Smith (Julia Colby), Karley Nadolski (Thelma Springfield), Graeme Langley (Charlie Ritter) and Sam Jorudd (Col. George Reedy).
The show is hosted by Mose Christ as Johnny Mitchell, with Aidan King assisting as Lloyd Wright. Hostesses are played by Grace Boyle and Sammi Brenner, while Amelia Hennegan, Erin Penzel and Jacey Pope are makeup artists.
Sawyer Gilding plays Sid, Zach Schmidt Willy, Claire Turke Elaine Ritter, Gabe King Jake, Abby Korb Mrs. Reedy, Matthew Schmidt and Eli Trapp as security personnel, Veronica Cruz and Andy Erickson as camera operators, and Emily Boettcher, Maya Hannen, Grce Lashbrook, Andrew Lovrine and Shandon Walton as audience participants.
The show is directed by Rob Thompson, with help from Carrie Fidler, Colin Galitz, Tammy Albrecht, Elisabeth Schopp and Kate McGinley.
Engineers are William Baldowsky, Patrick Cooke, Kevin Kosirog, Mike Needham, Aiden Thorn and Mikey Wheaton. Wardrobe and set decoration were done by Hannah Beyer, Hannah Brossard, Ashton Campbell, Samantha Derksen, Sydney Meier, Izzy Meike, Lindsey Morgan, Sydney Rigert, Emma Urick and Chloee Wheaton.
