The Queen of Peace Theater Company presents Funny Shorts, a collection of short comedies about anything and everything on October 21 and 22 at 7pm. This patchwork performance uses a few key props and a bit of wordplay to tell stories about a negotiation, a disgruntled tour guide at Mount Rushmore, composer Philip Glass stopping into a bakery and more. Expect some off-the-wall humor and a couple surprise endings in this 45-minute theatrical performance. Tickets are $8 for adults and $5 for students/kids and are available at the door. Queen of Peace High School is located at 7659 S. Linder Avenue in Burbank. Queen of Peace is one of only two all-girl high schools in America to partner with nationally-recognized Project Lead the Way (PLTW) to offer the STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) curriculum. www.queenofpeacehs.org.
