CDIS Theater “Miss Nelson is Missing!”
The spring production of the Chengdu International School’s high school theater department is “Miss Nelson is Missing!” The play is about a classroom of unruly students who treat their caring and lovely teacher with complete disrespect. They throw paper airplanes during story-time and refuse to sit in their seats during math. Near her wits’ end, Miss Nelson doesn’t come to school one day. Instead, the kids have a vile substitute–the nasty Viola Swamp–who loads the boys and girls with homework and never gives them a story hour. The students quickly begin to miss their old teacher, but the principal informs them that Ms. Nelson is Missing! The students decide that it’s up to them to find Ms. Nelson and bring their misery to an end. They employ a bumbling police detective in the search but it’s no use. In the end they realize that their only way to escape the evil Miss Swamp is to study hard for the Big Test so they can move on to the next grade. This hilarious comedy is full of colorful characters and is great for all ages. Based on the children’s book by Harry Allard.
