Members of the cast and crew of the Scotch Plains Fanwood High School production of The Mystery of Edwin Drood got top-level advice and a glowing review from Tony Award-winning writer and lyricist Rupert Holmes Feb. 17 at the high school.
Holmes, who wrote the script and the music for the play, dropped by to talk with the cast and crew, answer questions and to listen to several songs. He’s a friend of a Scotch Plains family and heard the group was putting on the production and asked if he could visit before the show is put on next month.
