West Allegheny School District

This year, the performing arts department will present a musical to take advantage of the quality small-cast musicals available. Three performances of the timeless "You're A Good Man, Charlie Brown" are scheduled for Thursday, October 27, Saturday, October 29, and Sunday, October 30. This music explores life through the eyes of Charlie Brown and his friends in the Peanuts gang. The cast includes Jack Campbell as Charlie Brown, Nick Sabo as Linus, Eleni Fitsioris as Lucy, Alex Booth as Sally, Carson McKinney as Schroeder, and Rachel Sabo as Snoopy. General admission tickets will go on sale in mid-October.  Mike and Mara Greer return as directors along with Matt McBurney as Producer.
