■ 1 tflS V •• ' ' -- IPS if ■TfAa I Til On April 26th and 27th the stage of Cole auditorium was transformed by colorful scenery and authentic-looking costumes in- to the set of The King and I. It was a musical unlike most musicals that have been performed by East Noble, stated Amy Roche, the lead in The King and I. It was a show about Siam, the oriental country now called Thailand, and the King (Jeff Mos- queda) who fights so desperately to make it civilized. The play begins with the arrival of an En- glish school teacher, Anna (Amy Roche), who teaches the King ' s children and be- comes involved in a scheme to make England see how scientific Siam is. Tempers flare between Anna and the King as their willful pride is shown in every argument. The King finally is found dying, and even then he is besieged with pride. Anna decides to stay and teach, Prince Chululongkorn (Nathan Smith) receives his father ' s final blessing, the King dies, and the lights fade. With three weeks of rehearsal, the full production with an orchestra and 32 kids, who played the prince and princesses, went off without a hitch. Though we only had 3 weeks to rehearse, the actors worked hard and suceeded in making a good play, stat- ed Mr. Craig Munk, Director. The hardest part about putting on this play was all the scenery that had to be mov- ed constantly, stated Jim McCue. Who worked on the stage crew. The scenery was made up of five seperate sets that were painted vibrant orange and Turquoise blue. All of these things combined to make the ' King and I a show to remember, stated McCue.

D wCje6 ft ' t tS% The Student Council sponsered many exciting, fun-filled dances throughout the year. These dances maintained a high atten- dence percentage, even during the long, icy months of winter. East Noble dances are admired by many other neighboring schools because out of town students are a com- mon sight. Thunder and Lightning, Sound Barrier, and Spectrum Light and Sound are some- what responsible for the popularity of E.N. dances. The Semi-formal and Computer dances were highlights of the year.
