Grade 7&8 Play

March 5 & 6, 2026 @ 7 pm

Our grade 7&8 student cast and crew can not wait to have you in the audience for this comedic private-eye thriller! 

About our show…

Private Investigator, Sammy Scoop, faces the biggest challenge of his illustrious career with the sudden fall and disappearance of the jolly Humpty-Dumpty who apparently had no enemies. But Sammy and his sidekick, Alice from Dallas, soon come up with a list of suspects who had motive and, perhaps, opportunity.

Come to Rockway to meet Sammy and Alice, as well as their colourful list of suspects who include such famous characters as: Mistress Mary, Rip Van Winkle, Henny-Penny, Peter Rabbit, Rapunzel  and the Handsome Prince. A last minute appearance by two of fairy tales’ most celebrated characters, Mother Goose and Mother Hubbard, will finally help Sammy nab his culprit. Who might it be?
