Welcome to our production room – a work in progress. Do you have your ticket? Our Sayville High School plays were and are fantastic because they combine a wonderful blend of creativity, passion, and genuine talent, all wrapped in a sense of community and excitement that’s hard to replicate. Students a chance to step outside their comfort zones, whether they’re performing on stage or working behind the scenes, and feel the exhilaration of bringing a story to life. While the performances might not be perfect, that’s what makes them special—there’s a unique energy in watching classmates collaborate, tackle challenges, and create something unforgettable. Additionally, high school plays often reveal hidden talents, boost school spirit, and create cherished memories for both the performers and the audience. So, click below for some memories!

The Trysting Place. 1931
Authored by Booth Tarkington, this was a comedic theatrical work set within the opulent confines of a country hotel. The narrative centered on the amusing misunderstandings and romantic complications involving four men and four women who are enjoying their stay at the same resort. The action took place in a single room adjacent to the hotel lounge, where characters frequently enter and exit, resulting in a succession of comedic events. Each individual becomes entangled in a mix-up, mistakenly believing they are meeting someone else, which leads to considerable confusion and amusement. In the end, the play concluded with each couple discovering their rightful partner. This delightful and amusing piece highlighted Tarkington’s skill in crafting engaging and humorous situations.
