Scott Haan has been a fixture in local theatre in Indiana his entire life, from performing in children's productions to high school musicals to community theatre, in everything from comedies to dramas to musicals. Scott graduated from Purdue University in 1994 with a B.A. in creative writing. In 2006, he finally achieved a long-time goal by trying his hand at playwriting for the first time, and found immediate encouragement when his first three scripts were quickly chosen for production by three different local theatre groups and were all subsequently published. Scott and his wife and two kids reside in Indiana.

Synopsis: | Because of a miscommunication with the Principal, High School Drama Teacher Mr. Morris finds himself with only ONE DAY to cast, stage and perform the school play. In desperation, he turns to two of his best students, Paul and Laura, to take charge and co-direct the show, unaware that the two are in the middle of a nasty break-up and are no longer speaking. Things go from bad to much, much worse when Paul and Laura, practicing with their friends independently, don't realize they are rehearsing for TWO DIFFERENT SHOWS, and the problem isn't discovered until the curtain opens. It's a theatre nightmare brought hilariously to life! | |||||
