As teacher Paul Colbrooke explained, You can ' t get a complete education unless you ' re fully involved. Junior Mara Simich added, In a school this big, it ' s hard to meet kids unless you get socially involved. - The opportunities are as diverse as the participants, and with the addition of the drama club and the soccer cheerleading squad, even more students are Ready For Action! „ , by Elissa Sard and Liz Krebs 36 EXTRACURRICULARS DIVISION

Cromer, Christie Sica, Kirsten Agresta, Halbert, McLaughlin, Gordon White and Lynne Sher- wood all displayed their singing, dancing, and acting talents in their major roles. Many of the 90 students in the Fiddler cast had to sacrifice jobs, sports, homework and sleep, but most importantly everyone had to give up mid-winter break in order to fully dedicate them- selves to the sometimes 7 or 8 hours of practice each day. Some days I would just go crazy. I couldn ' t stand it any more, explained Julie Reilly, a chorus dancer. And to relieve this ten- sion, cast members would bring in their radios and blast the music while they let it all hang loose on the auditorium stage. Or some- times movies were rented as a way of breaking from the action. And for most cast members, becoming involved with Fiddler on the Roof was not only an enjoyable experience but an edu- cational one as well. 1 learned a lot about what it was like back then (at the turn of the century), said freshman Scott Fischer. Se- nior Paul Mylod explained, I think ' Fiddler ' was one of the more realistic musicals that we have done because of how it religiously, politically, historically, and emotionally moved us. And as the last curtain dropped, the 1986 performance of Fiddler on the Roof was proven a success, without a doubt. Perchik (J.J. Cromer), a student from Kiev, reads from the Good Book as he makes lesson plans for Shprintze (Monica Mylod) and Bielke (Christina Halbert).
