Wellsville HS production of Witness for the Prosecution

Here are a couple of rehearsal photos and a full cast photo for the Wellsville HS production of Witness for the Prosecution.

Here is a description of the show from the director:

Agatha Christie's Witness for the Prosecution is a tense courtroom drama/murder mystery involving a young man named Leonard Vole (played by senior Keenen O'Connor) who has been accused of murdering a rich maiden lady, Emily French. He is defended in court by Lady Wilfrid Robarts (played by senior Maddie Muurisepp) and is antagonized by the prosecuting attorney Alexandra Myers (played by junior Kennedy Ewing). The courtroom is turned on its head when Romaine Vole (Leonard's wife, played by senior Maddison Baker) is called to testify against her husband and claims that Leonard did indeed kill Miss Emily French. Is Leonard guilty? A trademark twist by Agatha Christie will leave the audience guessing until the very end.
