“Rumors” is the story of four couples who gather to celebrate an anniversary only to find the host has accidentally shot and wounded himself in the head and his wife is missing. As lawyers try to cover up the disaster, the guests become more and more confused about what’s really going and each person embellishes on the rumors circulating in the room.
Seniors Caroline Rensel and Ashley Haskew finish their acting careers at Arlington High in the roles of Chris and Claire.
