Romeoville High School will perform the delightful comedy “Our Miss Brooks” Nov 8-10 in the RHS Little Theatre.

The production focuses on teacher Miss Brooks as she discusses her dream vacation with the basketball coach and realizes the two may just be perfect for each other.  Unfortunately, when she is tasked with sponsoring the Senior Play, Miss Brooks and the coach end up at each other’s throats.  They have to fight over gym space for practice and rehearsals, and the coach’s star athlete even gives up basketball to star in Miss Brooks’ play.  Meanwhile, the school board president is unhappy that Miss Brooks isn’t giving her daughter more attention; instead the focus is on sweet and talented Jane, who has some problems of her own when she develops a crush on the star basketball player.

Show times are 7 p.m. Nov. 8 and 9 and 2 p.m. Nov. 10. Tickets will be sold at the door for $7 for adults and $5 for students. Children under 10 will be admitted free.
