LHS Drama troupe brings WWII era to life in “The Greatest Generation”

Danny Federico reporter3.riverbendnews@gmail.com Lafayette High School's (LHS) cafeteria recently transformed into a time capsule as the drama troupe presented "The Greatest Generation: A Tribute to the 40s," a play written by students of the North Florida College Sentinel Upstage Players. The performances, held on Saturday, Dec. 7, and Monday, Dec. 9, offered audiences a glimpse into the struggles and triumphs of an American family navigating the turbulent World War II (WWII) era. All the events followed a crackling radio broadcast bringing word of the 1941 bombing of Pearl Harbor. The drama unfolded through snapshots of life both overseas and within the United States.
