Everybody at Westfield High School thinks they know what happened the day of the fire. Fire Exit opens in the aftermath, as the community faces what appears to be a prank gone terribly wrong. But as the kids and adults open up about their lives and the bigger picture of the day's events emerges, the truth proves to be far less simple. The GHS theatre department will present this poignant one act Saturday, November 1, at 3PM, before heading to regional competition. Tickets are $5.
