House on Haunted Hill
A play by Michael Susko

October 17, 18 & 21 @ 7PM
October 19 @ 2PM & 7PM
Lake Creek High School Auditorium

An eccentric billionaire and his wife invites five strangers to a haunted house. He offers them one million dollars each if they're brave enough to spend the night. What begins as a fun "fright night" party quickly turns into a night of terror when the doors are locked and there is no escape. Is the house really haunted or are there other more sinister things going on? Based on the 1959 William Castle film with a screenplay by Robb White, Michael Susko has adapted this cult film into a contemporary suspense filled play with enough twists and turns to excite every audience.Buy House on Haunted Hill tickets!

About the Director

Mr. Ramirez

Now entering his 13th year as a high school Theatre Director, Mr. Ramirez enjoys igniting the creativity of young actors and technicians, and is extremely proud of the accomplishments of his students, both in and out of theatre. He caught the theatre/acting/tech/film bug when he finally found a place in which he finally felt he fit— his high school theatre department — that was many, many moons ago.Mr. Ramirez earned a B.S. in Radio/TV/Film from the University of Texas at Austin and later completed the post-baccalaureate Theatre Studies program, again at UT Austin. He has experience performing on stage and in many technical elements, and looks forward to doing what he can to help put Lake Creek High School Theatre and MISD Theatre on the proverbial map of Texas theatre education.When not teaching and directing, he enjoys spending time with his family — his wife Claudia, oldest son Alex, his daughter Sophia, his youngest son Eli, and a Pembroke Welsh Corgi named Puck. Mr. Ramirez enjoys all kinds of plays, musicals, movies, and music, and loves creating in all of those art forms as well. He could talk all day about horror films, Star Wars, and hard rock/heavy metal music, so whatever you do, don’t get him started on those topics.
