Union High School to stage ‘The Champ’ Nov. 13, 15
LA PORTE CITY – Union High School will stage its fall theater production, the 90-minute comedy “The Champ” by Brianna Dehn, on Friday, Nov. 13, and Sunday, Nov. 15.
Per the publisher’s synopsis: “Welcome to the 56th Semiannual Donut Eating Competition, where Jaws is the top competitor and has always emerged victorious. Her nemesis, Glazed, forms a plan to throw her focus by asking her out on a date so he can charm Jaws and then crush her heart right before the competition. Some other competitors, Cheeks, Tia, and Sprinkles help Glazed in his scheme, all vying to overthrow Jaws. As the hilarious events unfold, some competitors start to enjoy making friends, while others stay laser-focused on the prize. What will come of Glazed and Jaws? Whose feelings will be crushed in the hard-core donut eating world, and who will be crowned The Champ?”
Saturday’s production will take place at 7 p.m., while Sunday’s will be at 2 p.m. matinee. Tickets are $7 and can be purchased at the door.
