First Musical In Years Drama Club Presents L’il Abner The Drama Club brought the musical back to Clinton High School on May 2, 3, and 4 by presenting L'lL ABNER, a musicalplay. The play was an enormous success with full houses on both nights. The play, which follows the comic strip of the same name, is set in Dogpatch U. S. A., a community of extremely different social, economic, and recreational customs. The major plot of the story concerns Daisy Mae, played by Jan Turney, and L'il Abner, played by Allen Wade. Throughout the play Daisy tries to catch L'il Abner so that they can be married. The remainder of the play is made up of the involvement of the townspeople with everything from atom bomb test to the Sadie Hawkins Day Race. The success of the play was dependent mainly on two things. These were singing and acting. Needless to say, the cast of L'IL ABNER did a good job at both. With the fine job of singing and acting of Jan Turney and Allen Wade came Davis Reeves who portrayed Mar-ry'in Sam, a character akin to a justice of the peace. Because of the complexities of the play, this was one of the most expensive productions that Clinton has produced. Even though the play was more expensive to produce, everyone worked hard to sell their tickets and fill the seats. Their work was rewarded since the play was a success both dramatically and financially. As directors of the play, Mrs. Jones and assistant director Ralph Shallenberger spent much time in planning and rehearsals. They had their work cut out for them as they were to create actors and singers out of over 100 students in only two months. Besides the main directors there were separate directors for choreography and music. Mrs. Arnold and Mr. Garrison filled these positions and added their part to create the successful production. As the rehearsal schedule advanced everyone's hard work began to pay off. Then, when it came time for the curtain, everybody saw and heard the results of the hard work of the cast and crew as the show went on without any complications all three nights.
