Newspaper Page Text2A THE DAILY ASTORIAN • THURSDAY, MAY 19, 2016 Seaside students to serve up ‘Breakfast Club’ of the play, we thought it was important to add those elements to it,” Bridgette Malone said, adding they are advertising the play with a PG-13 rating. ‘Friendships in unlikely groups’ By KATHERINE LACAZE For EO Media Group In addition to being a co-di- rector, Jake Malone was con- vinced to play the role of John Bender, “the criminal,” by his sister and Kincaid, who felt he could bring the character to life on stage. While Jake Malone has plenty of acting experience, Bridgette Malone and Kin- caid are newer to theater, par- ticipating in productions for the ﬁ rst time this school year. They enjoyed their involvement and decided to put on another play for their Paciﬁ ca Project, a grad- uation prerequisite that requires students to invest at least 50 hours into a community service project. “Me and Jake have never done an extracurricular activity together, so I thought it would be kind of fun to do that,” Bridgette Malone said. Kincaid joined with a desire to learn more about producing, directing and behind-the-scenes aspects of theater. They all value performing arts. Jake Malone said he appre- ciates the theater environment, which allows for diverse peo- ple to join and create something together. “It builds friendship in unlikely groups, and it’s a good way to build personal strength,” SEASIDE — Three Sea- side High School seniors are using their Paciﬁ ca Project as an opportunity to produce a stage version of the iconic 1980s movie, “The Breakfast Club.” Under the direction of sib- lings Bridgette and Jake Malone and Chloe Kincaid, a 10-mem- ber cast will put on John Hughes’s classic coming-of-age tale tonight through Saturday at the high school. The story follows ﬁ ve stu- dents, each representing a dif- ferent stereotypical high school clique, who ﬁ nd themselves thrown together in all-day deten- tion on a Saturday. After hours of talking, and slowly opening up to one another, the students discover they share important similarities despite their varying social status. “I really like that we chose ‘The Breakfast Club,’ just because it is about high school,” Bridgette Malone said. “It’s about kids from different walks of life coming together and realizing that, hey, they can be friends and it can work out.” Jake Malone agreed. “It’s one of the greater stories told about the high school expe- rience, and it ﬁ ts because we’re high school students,” he said. The spring play trend Katherine Lacaze/For The Daily Astorian The cast of “The Breakfast Club” production at Seaside High School includes Lucy Swenson as the outcast Alli- son (top, left); Jake Malone as the rebel John (top, right); Bay Cartier as the nerdy Brian (middle, left); Zachary Mar- ston as the athletic Andrew (middle, right); and Isabella Curcin as the princess Claire (bottom). he said. “I feel like a lot of kids may not have the strength to laugh at themselves sometimes. When we’re all up on stage, there is no other choice but to just laugh at yourself, because you’re going to mess up.” The cast is following an adapted script previously used to produce the play at Broadway Middle School several years ago. The script eliminates a majority of the explicit ele- ments that gave the movie an R rating. However, feeling like some of those elements are cru- cial to character development, the seniors reinserted selected scenes containing adult content. “To get what we wanted out FIVE-DAY FORECAST FOR ASTORIA TONIGHT FRIDAY SATURDAY 62 47 45 Mostly cloudy Mostly cloudy ALMANAC More clouds than sun Some sun with a shower in the area Cloudy with a couple of showers Last Newport 44/56 May 29 Coos Bay 47/60 First June 4 June 12 Ontario 44/62 Burns 33/51 Klamath Falls 35/49 Lakeview 39/45 Ashland 43/61 Forecasts and graphics provided by AccuWeather, Inc. ©2016 Source: Jim Todd, OMSI TOMORROW'S TIDES Astoria / Port Docks Time 7:40 a.m. 7:28 p.m. Low -0.1 ft. 2.2 ft.

SALES • SERVICE • RENTALS The directors held auditions in March, after the conclusion of the school’s spring musical, “Urinetown.” Selecting a cast and turning away some of their peers challenged the students, but Bridgette Malone said she reminded them a student-run spring production is becom- ing the trend at Seaside High School. Last year, two students put on “Macbeth: The Western” for their Paciﬁ ca Project. The original play, written by Wil- liam Shakespeare, was adapted by former Seaside students Michelle Peterson and Allison Barker as their Paciﬁ ca Project in 2006. It now has been staged three times. A junior is planning to do another play next year. The recurring productions are becoming known as “the spring plays,” said Lenore Morrisson, the students’ project adviser. Putting on a third production each school year, she said, forms an extra theater opportunity for students who cannot participate in the fall play or spring musi- cal because of athletic or other conﬂ icts.

In addition to Jake Malone, the cast includes Lucy Swenson as Allison, “the basket case”; Isabella Curcin as Claire, “the princess”; Zachary Marston as Andrew, “the jock”; Bay Cartier as Brian, “the nerd”; and Danny Kuszmaul, Joseph Harkins, Morgan Matthews, Jacob Brien and Nolan Milliren in support- ing roles. Through the experience of directing and producing the play, the Malones and Kincaid said they have developed new leadership skills, especially as they balance their Paciﬁ ca Proj- ect with other responsibilities. “It’s deﬁ nitely helped us to see how more efﬁ cient team- work is,” Jake Malone said. As they prepare to depart Sea- side High School after graduation in a few weeks, the play offers a ﬁ nal opportunity for them to leave an impression on the school with several fellow seniors. “I’ve really enjoyed spend- ing more time with a few of these people that I was friends with in middle school but had lost contact with,” Bridgette Malone said. “It’s really fun to hang out with a whole bunch of our senior friends right before we leave and to be able to do this experience together.” The Associated Press is entitled exclusively to the use for republication of all the local news printed in this newspaper.
