‘The Drowsy Chaperone’
Upper St. Clair High School will present its spring musical, “The Drowsy Chaperone,” March 3-5 and March 9-11 in the school’s theatre. The curtain rises at 7:30 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays, March 3, 4, 10 and 11. Family Night, with a 6:30 p.m. show time, is set for March 9, and a 2 p.m. matinee is offered on March 5.
