The drama club students made their way to Pittsburgh on May 10 to have a blast. First the students attended their first play, Huck Finn. After the play, they had a  meal provided by the Hard Rock Cafe. To add to their fun they went to the zoo and saw many animals and learned so much about them. After that the students went to play games and talked with their friends at Dave and Busters. To end their fun day they attended a second play, Tarzan.
