Fishburne Players Return to Campus

Fishburne Military School’s Drama Club has been resurrected this year and the “Fishburne Players” are looking forward to their season debut during Alumni Weekend 2013. The club has roared back to life this year under the direction of FMS English Teacher, Alumnus and former Fishburne Player CPT Carl Lambert.

After a seven-year sabbatical, the group has returned to the stage, with 15 cadets and two local young ladies participating. The club will be performing two short plays consisting of several quick one acts each. Both plays are comedies, one about blind dating and the other about ways prospective students mess up their college interviews.

“The guys have really embraced drama this year,” Lambert noted, “and it’s a great thing for the Corps as a whole to see the value and enjoyment that can be gained through performance.”

The Fishburne Players will have a private showing for the Corps on April 24, just prior to their public debut for Alumni, Staff, Faculty and friends on Saturday, April 27th from 3-4 p.m. They will be performing 2 short plays (yet to be disclosed).

Next, they will perform on Thursday, May 16th from 8:30-9:30 p.m. to kick off the festivities for graduation weekend. All members of the Fishburne Family are encouraged to attend.
