"The First Day of Summer" Photo Gallery

You can see some photos from last night's rehearsal of The First Day of Summer right here on the Herald-Dispatch's website.

In the photo below by Sholten Singer, actors Cassie Bowen and Thomas Armstrong practice a scene together.

The play will be presented Friday, May 7 and Saturday, May 8 at 8 p.m. and Sunday, May 9 at 2:30 p.m. at the Huntington Museum of Art.

The play was written and directed by Jonathan Joy. The First Day of Summer is a story of two young people, a boy named Ron and a girl named Laney, who meet at age 12 one year while on summer vacation. The two clash at first, but eventually grow close and begin a lifelong friendship. They spend their days playing games, talking about hopes and dreams and sharing stories of fellow classmates from their two different hometowns. When they are split apart at the end of summer, they make a pact. They agree to meet back at their favorite spot in the woods on the first day of summer following high school graduation. Four actors portray Ron and Laney at age 12 and at age 18.

Tickets $10.00 for Adults, $8.00 Kids 12 and under. Tickets may be purchased at the door or reserved by calling 304-416-5437.
