At Home With the Clarks
by Rand Higbee
The Original Cast of At Home With The Clarks at the Anchorage Community Theatre in Anchorage, AK.
THE STORY: The Clarks are a typical 1960s sit-com family: Dad who goes off to work each day, Mom who stays home and bakes cookies, daughter Betty who is a popular high school Senior, and son “Tiger” who just might be at that age where he is beginning to discover girls. However a change is in the air. Not just in the home of the Clarks, but throughout the idyllic little town of Mayville. It’s more than just this odd new decade of the 1960s. Betty has a new best friend named Wanda who hides a devastating secret…a secret that just might lead to the end of the world as we know it
