cr — mm — Clic DARK OF ‘Remember the night the wind came up and the moon went dark?’’ The audience will remember since the scene was so perfectly set by the magnificent Dackground. Lighting crewhead, Dave Haviland, said “The play relied heavily on lighting since there was no scenery. The light shone through colored jells into a shadowbox which gave the appearance of the moon, trees and mountains.’ There was also a light side to the play. Clapping hands, singing and dancing were all traditions of the southern valley people. They were also very devoted to the Lord and that was apparent during revival meetings. The Reverend Haggler (Tom Johnson) preached hell, fire and damnation during the worship services. THE MOON — Left: IT'S A WITCH. Barbara Allen is having her baby, unfortunately it's a witchbaby. Her mother (Diane VanBuren) discusses the situation with Mrs. Summey (Mary Riley). Below: REMEMBER ME. Marvin Hudgens (Kevin Israel) reminds John (Pete Robert) that he's still the strongest person in all the valley. John has just married Barbara Allen. Lower Right: AT THE DANCE. Just before the storm comes up the valley people decide to have a dance. Mr. Summey (Mark Sturtevant) and Uncle Smelicue (David Welch) chat about John, the new person in town. Mrs. Summey watches over. These weren't the only fascinating aspects of the play. ‘‘Shelly Nims was excellent as the unwed mother, Barbara Allen,” said Linda Dilts. Pete Roberts played the role of John, the only man who would marry Barbara Allen. John had a problem though —he was a witchboy who dreamed of being human. To make that dream reality, Barbara Allen had to be faithful to John for one year. She betrayed John on his eve of becoming human, which ended in her death. John was then destined to be a witchboy.
