The cast and crew of Chantilly High’s production of “Vocal Work” will compete Saturday, March 8, at the VHSL State One-Act Play Competition in Charlottesville. Written and directed by Chantilly Theater Director Ed Monk, it’s a comedy set in a sound studio.

The audience sees a hectic day in the life of Amanda, working at her sound studio which specializes in creating radio spots. According to the show’s publicity blurb, “The schedule is screwed up, the mattress girls have yet to be cast, the car girl doesn't know how to sound sexy, the diarrhea ad isn't finished, and time is running out.”

Chantilly won the Concorde Conference Championship with “Vocal Work” on Jan. 30. In the Northern Region competition on Feb. 8, Chantilly came in second behind West Springfield High. Both schools then advanced to the state finals, where they’ll compete against additional high schools.

During the Northern Regionals, four Chantilly actors received recognition for their performances. Brooke Johnson received the award for Best Female Actor. In addition, Sam McKee and Chris Knarr were nominated in the male actor category and Alycia Adams was nominated for best female actor.

After the state competition, the cast of “Vocal Work” will perform the show for the public Tuesday, March 11, at 7 p.m., in the school theater.
