Leon (Nathan Ward) declares his undying love for Sophia (K.K. Bracken) in this scene from Neil Simon’s farcical play Fools.  The two sophomores are preparing for the opening night with optimism.  “I am a little nervous but confident in the abilities of our senior actors, Katie Gordon and Andy Parker, as well as the rest of the cast,” says Ward, a dedicated member of the Drama Department.  Gordon and Parker believe that this play, their favorite out of the 11 they have performed in the past several years, will be a fitting conclusion to their distinguished high-school drama careers.  “Fools” begins a three-night run tonight at 7:00 in the George Mason Auditorium.  Tickets are $3.00 for students and $5.00 for adults.
