High School Performs Aida—You Have Three More Chances To Go

Hoboken High School is performing Aida—a love story set in ancient Egypt—this weekend at the school's auditorium. The students are performing twice on Saturday, at 2 p.m. and at 8 p.m. There will also be a show on (what is supposed to be a rainy) Sunday afternoon, at 2 o'clock.

Hoboken High parent and Board of Education hopeful Ken Howitt urged people to go and see the show this weekend. (tickets are $10 for general admission; $7 for college students, $5 for students and $2 for senior citizens). 

Howitt wrote in an e-mail that 41 cast members and 60 other students have been working on the production. A six by four feet wide three-dimensional mask of Aida, created by the students, will adorn the stage, Howitt wrote. 

"In addition, the set has many surprises," Howitt wrote, promising that "sails will unfurl to create a magical theatrical experience."
