The South Putnam High School Drama Club will present “Maid to Order” on Saturday, Nov. 11 at 7 p.m. and Sunday, Nov. 12 at 2 p.m.

“Maid to Order,” by Matthew K. Begbie, is set in New York City’s Upper East Side, in the home of a wealthy widow, Marcy Malliger. Mrs. Malliger is expecting her boyfriend for dinner, which means everything has to be perfect. Her 25-year-old son, Gerald, still lives with “Mommy” and attempts to put the moves on Sarah, one of the newly hired maids. Sarah tries to ignore him so as not to lose her job. When her brother, James, shows up looking for a place to hide, pandemonium ensues.

Admission is $7 for adults, $5 for middle and high school students and $3 for elementary and younger.
