The West High Speech and Theatre Program will present “The Orphan Train” May 9 – 11 at the West High School Little Theatre. Appropriate for ages eight to adult, the play focuses on an “orphan train” that left New York City on May 28, 1914, and traveled to Midwestern towns. On board were unwanted, orphaned children, hoping for a home — any home, anywhere. Traveling between encounters of fear, laughter, rejection, or acceptance, the stories of nine orphans are revealed in this moving play about the hope of finding a permanent family.
