LACK Electrical Failure Delays 'Wonderful Town' It was 6:00 on Saturday, April 4. The only sign of life at Bay Hign was two silly men frantically running around the auditorium, finishing last minute preparations for the closing night performance of Wonderful Town . One of them dashed up to the light room. Okay, lights! Wait a minute. What the — ? ?!! ! CHUCK! Yes, there was no electricity, and without electricity there could be no show. Cast members started showing up, either in pairs or alone, just to be turned away at the door by Mr. Mil- lheim. They walked back to their cars like deserted puppies, through the rain; dejected, rejected. Two or three actors were left with the awful task of calling ticket holders and telling them the awful news. It wasn't a pretty sight. Everyone was let down. Gradu- . Q tf A11 Things Considered O Wonderful Town ated senior Gretchen Hall had all of her relatives in town for the night to watch her first starring role on stage. It was all for naught. Gretchen threw a mourning party for family and friends. One was greeted at the door with gloom. Everyone inside was drowning their sorrows in New York Seltzer, strawberry none the less. Though there was a make-up, mat- inee Sunday afternoon, something was missing. The show lacked en- ergy, enthusiasm, even emotion. It was, at best, anti-climatic. Senior Sheridan Pagan commented, Saturday night 1 wanted to perform my heart out, and my one goal was to satisfy the audience. But Sunday, Sunday just wasn't the same. Senior Scott Troia summed up the evening when he said, I think we (the cast) will remember Saturday, April 4 as a day of utter tragedy. We worked for long and hard to achieve the perfect performance, the ultimate show, but our hopes crashed with the downed line.
