Adapted for the Christmas Season, “A Hard Day’s Knight” follows Gareth, who wants to be somebody, but now he wishes he would have been a little more specific. Jester helps him get a job in the kitchen under the tutelage of Kay the Cook. Lady Evelyn (she puts the “mean” in “demean”) comes to Camelot to enlist some knights to rescue her sister who is held captive by three evil knights.
Gareth, disguised as a kitchen knave, convinces the King to allow him to take the quest, and Lady Evelyn is not pleased. The journey proves to be a hard day, with some difficult knights, but don’t be fooled by appearances!
The Beaverton Jr/Sr High School Drama & Music Department looks forward to seeing everyone for an entertaining afternoon on December 3 and 4!
