Arcadia High School Theater has been working tirelessly for the past two months to put on its annual fall production. This semester’s play is the spy comedy Get Smart, which focuses on main character Max Smart, a top secret agent trying to save a princess from the evil organization Chaos. It’s set in the 1970s. Student actor Sarah Salt describes the play as “really fun because there are a lot of different roles [one can] play within the story.”
