Butler High School students, from left, Natalie VanLaningham, Galen Sexton and Justin Macurdy rehearse a scene from “The High Schooler's Guide to the Galaxy” to be presented May 1 and 2 in the senior high auditorium.

Butler High School will present the all-school play, “The High Schooler’s Guide to the Galaxy,” at 7:30 p.m. May 1 and 2 in the Butler Senior High auditorium.

General admission tickets are $8 and available at the door.

The show is directed by Dale VanLaningham.

“Guide” starts with four students staring out at the audience. Tomorrow they start their freshman year. There are so many things to worry about: class schedules, bullies, cafeteria food, dating, parents’ expectations, what to wear, and worst of all … gym class.

These students need a survival guide, and that’s exactly what this play provides with hilariously embarrassing and awkward results. The guides take them through the gauntlet that is high school. Find out the appropriate way to boogie down at high school dances, discover creative ways to get out of gym class, and take a peek into the most top secret of all rooms on campus: the mysterious teachers’ lounge.
