The play written by Langford Wilson was set in a small adobe mission in Nor- thwestern New Mexico. It begins at 5 p.m. on a Saturday in June. A nuclear accident has occurred in a nearby mining town and the six characters are trapped in the reser- vation ' s church. The cast included Bill VanDeest as Dr. Dan Tabaha; a young Indian studying to be a doctor. He is faced with a difficult decision of whether to stay at the reserva- tion or take a research job. Michael A. Shouse played a burned-out Art History teacher Niles Harris who is on his way to a psychiatrist. His wife Vita was played by Amy Earlbacher. Judson C. Jones was cast as Salvatore (Zappy) Zappala, a pro-tennis player. His girlfriend, Marion Clay-a recent widow was played by Amy M. Harmon. Father William Doherty, the reservation ' s priest, was portrayed by Brian J. Kokensparger, S.J. Each character is facing a period of conflict and turmoil in their lives. In the short time they spend together they help provide each other with new insights toward their problems. The play was performed from Oct. 7 through Oct. 11 at the Interim Perform- ing Arts Center.
