Event Details

As part of our commitment to providing students with exposure to cultural and artistic events, all students are going to see a special student matinee of Murder on the Orient Express presented by Harlequin Productions in downtown Olympia.

Students will be leaving NOVA 9:30 to 9:45am on Intercity Vans driven by NOVA faculty and staff for the 10am performance.

All students will arrive back at school by 12:30pm on this date. (It's conference week, so make sure to come pick up your student at 12:30 instead of 12 today!)

There is no cost to parents for this field trip! 

⚠️This play is rated "PG-13" and contains haze, fog, strobing light effects, gunshots, sudden loud noises, mentions of suicide and murder, and a dead body onstage. Harlequin has removed the act of suicide from the school-audience production. If you feel like this content is not appropriate for your child, or have any questions about it, please contact Samantha Chandler, Dean of Students (schandler@novaschool.org).

We believe that the experience of seeing a classic murder-mystery on stage is a worthwhile one, but if you feel like this content is not appropriate for your child, or have any questions about it, please contact Samantha Chandler.

Land Acknowledgement

NOVA is located on the ancestral lands of the Steh-Chass band of the Squaxin Island Tribe and Nisqually Indian Tribe, who have long been stewards of the region’s waters, plants, and animals. The southernmost point of the Salish Sea, these lands were—and still are—a place of gathering, trade, and community for many Coast Salish peoples. We recognize that all who are not Salish peoples are visitors here. We commit to join these peoples to share their history, build relationships, increase representation, and restore the living world around us.
