    Cape Breton Highlands Academy held a totally awesome musical last week called Back To The 80s.
    Written by Neil Gooding with additional material from Stuart Smith the play was presented on April 3rd and 4th.
    The play opened with Act One, circa 1988 at CBHA, with the graduating class embarking on a year of self-discovery and musical fun.  You got to witness student council elections, basketball, cheerleading, and much more while getting to know the class of ‘88.
    In Act Two, the year passes quickly as the students discover more about themselves than some had bargained for.  Who attended the prom with whom, who got a car, what was up with teachers, students?
    The musical was directed by Avery LeLievre and Andrew Clarey, with assistance from Maya Ghattas and musical arrangement from Lawrence Cameron.
    Cameron (keyboard), Peter Goosens (keyboard), Kiera Doyle (guitar), and Mark Poirier (bass) made up the band.
