Students at Reading Memorial High School will perform their spring musical this weekend, and—as has become custom—Reading Patch has a preview for you.
Certain members of the Reading Patch community asked that we do a video treatment of the show like we did with The Scarlet Pimpernel. So, we obliged.
This weekend's musical, "Chess," follows the love triangle, clashing personalities and intrigue surrounding a chess championship between the top American and Russian chess players during the cold war.
Oh, and did I mention that the music was written by half of the band ABBA?
The drama club will perform three shows, one each on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. See the video for more.

Great video, Matt. Loved hearing from my former teachers, Bill Endslow and Nancy Katz Stone. Break a leg, guys!
