The Taxidermist’s Daughter - A Stage Play
Last night, Wylie High School Theatre had their one and only public performance of Kate Mosse’s The Taxidermist’s Daughter, their chosen stage play for UIL (University Interscholastic League) competition. Since this a competition, there are of course rules, some of them being, the cast and crew have 7 minutes to set the stage, 40 minutes to perform, and then 7 minutes to strike. If they go over any of these time limits, they will be disqualified.

The Performance
The Taxidermist’s Daughter, is a dark play about a tough topic, and the performance was intense. Intense enough that I became uncomfortable taking photos of some scenes. That of course means, the cast and crew did their jobs very well indeed.
These photos serve the macabre story well.
