Spring play brings Teter Rabbit ' ... March 18 and 19 brought a unique type of spring play — Teter Rabbit, by Beatrix Potter. During the two evening shows and the special matinee, young and old alike discovered, through their imagination, an exciting adventure. Many exceptional actors and actresses, including Preshia Paulding, Leonard Wilkison, Cindy Colburn, Mike Carley, and Yvette Van Zee played their parts so exceptionally well and realistically that their audience became deeply involved in the play with them. Effort put in by many different people was a great contribution to the success of the play. These people included: director, Ms. Gaines; student director, Kim Japhet; scenery, Mr. Waller and Miss Laird; music. Deb Christian, with special help by Kristi Japhet, a sixth grade flute player at Garton Elementary School; programs, tickets, and posters, Mr. Hiatt; publicity, Mrs. C. Davis. The tale of Peter Rabbit is about four little rabbits: Flopsy, Mopsy, Cotton-Tail, and Peter, who lived with their mother underneath a very big fir tree. One day their mother tells them to go down the lane to gather blackberries, but not to go near Mr. McGregor ' s garden, where at one time their father had had a terrible accident and had been put into a stew by Mrs. McGregor. All of the rabbits were good except for Peter, who disobeyed and went into the garden, where he feasted on lettuce, French beans, and radishes before being discovered by Mr. McGregor. Peter spent most of the rest of the day being chased by the gardener until he finally escaped, although his new jacket and shoes were lost in the process. Once home, he was put to bed by his mother, who gave him some camile tea, while the good bunnies Flopsy, Mopsy, and Cotton-Tail enjoyed bread, milk, and blackberries for supper.
