"From Up Here," written by Liz Flahive, follows the story of high school senior Kenny Barrett and his return to classes after doing something very serious-something almost deadly.

The cast includes first-year students Stuart Foley and Wendy Moulton, sophomores Katie Owens and Mike Wawrzynek, and seniors Nicole St. Pierre, D.J. Littell, Rachel Saul and Coty Morrison.

The play is directed by Terri Mastrobuono, Elizabethtown College adjunct faculty member.
