PHOTOS: Foxborough High School Drama Club Wows in Performance of 'Arsenic and Old Lace'

Forty-three Foxborough High School students impressed over the weekend with a fantastic performance of Joseph Kesselring's "Arsenic and Old Lace."

The talented cast of 14 FHS Drama Club students brought Kesselring's play to life in 1941 Brooklyn.

The three-act play took place inside the Brewster home where two "charming and innocent ladies populate their cellar with the remains of socially acceptable roomers."

Rebecca Regan (Abby Brewster) and Sydney Raymond (Martha Brewster) shined in their roles as the Brewster sisters, perfectly portraying the simple and innocent nature of the women who in a word were killers.

Stealing the show were the talented Shane Walsh (Mortimer Brewster) and Colleen Schofield (Dr. Einstein). These FHS students best embodied their characters and sparked laughter throughout the auditorium with their well-delivered dialogues.
