Base Bound Stuck In Motion

    • Performing Arts

(Setting and timeline)

In 1986, an event happened in England that could have had some similarities to today.  A group of American High School dorm students are not allowed to leave the local Air Force Base (where their dorms and school are housed) in response to matters of security.  What if the response to that threat lasted from April to the end of the year?  Instead of being in quarantine, the students are stuck at school - many of the activities that happened off base are no longer possible or must be modified. The students, the staff, the community is stuck, but they still move forward. Yet they are also Stuck in Motion for other reasons.

(An original podcast by Mr. Miller of Natick High School presented by his Advanced Acting Class and guests - based on an actual high school in England - London Central High School - and based on an actual event)
