TidePod Crew

In the tenth episode of the third season of the TidePod, we interviewed student leaders of the Black Maskers Drama club in Richard Montgomery High School, RMHS, to talk about their upcoming production, Clue: Stay at Home EditionNormally, the Black Maskers put on a musical during the fall, produce the student-directed One Acts during the winter, and put on a play during the spring. While the Black Maskers were not able to produce any of these shows in person this year, they will be presenting a virtually-made production in April. Today, we will be exploring how the club has adapted in transitioning from an in-person production to an online one. Anand Chitnis and Bridget McKirgan, student leaders of the Black Maskers Drama club, will also help us understand how the club has been running during virtual learning.
