One Hundred Entrances

All the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely players. They have their exits and entrances, and one man in his time plays many parts. This quote, probably the most well-known in Shakespeare's work, is also the prompt for 100 Entrances. In this play, we see a group of at least eight junior high or high school actors/actresses taking on many parts: a devious invisible friend, a lost clown, an unlucky vampire, whiny goth girls, desperate student body president nominees, even a student filmmaker working on a film within a film within a play? And many more! These seemingly unconnected scenes speed through many plotlines, and as the play winds towards its conclusion, even some of the characters want to know what it all means. Ultimately, they discover that when you walk through a door, you never know what you may find, or sometimes even what you may be leaving. Funny often, remorseful at times, but always entertaining, 100 Entrances has something for everyone.
