A Character Driven Dramedy: Among Friends and Clutter

Among Friends and Clutter by Lindsay Price presents a montage of characters who experience the most important relationships in life: friends, family, and love.

Starting with seven classmates, the play explores what they imagine their lives will be, and shows what their lives eventually become. They grow, succeed, and sometimes fail. Students love this play for its well-rounded characters and its wealth of comic and serious moments.

The drama group at Tallmadge High School in Tallmadge, Ohio took on this high school character-driven dramedy and we think the results are picture perfect. Check out their production photos to see how they brought this play to life!

Great work, Tallmadge High School!
