WORRYING about Arne, Aunt Sigrid tells what Uncle Chris has done. Uncle Chris (above right) orders his nieces not to be afraid of him. The entire cast (right) is in Mama's kitchen. Seniors create Norwegian family; Lemon-honey potion helps lung power; Nancy Jones turns blonde; “For as long as | can remember the house on Steiner Street has been home... but most of all | Remember Mama.” For six weeks, seniors worked vigorous- ly to be ready when the curtain would go up on November 10 and |1. Mem- bers of the cast memorized lines and quickly tried to learn a Norwegian ac- cent. The feeling of a real family was the main goal. Mrs. Strain, director, Lau- rie Stokel, student director, and many other seniors did the behind-the-scene work that was needed to make | Re- member Mama possible. The setting of 1910 created a chal- lenge. Costumes were made and some authentic 1910 dresses were found in an attic. An old china hutch was searched for where Mama could keep her dishes and the little bank . After the per- formance it was agreed, It vas goot!
