Prom held outdoors again at Movieland After viewing available sites for the 1983 prom, Junior Class President Chris Salio and the other class officers selected the California Plaza at Movieland Wax Museum as this yearis site. It was a popular change from some smaller, stuffier enclosed sites of previous proms. The California Plaza is an outdoor Spanish style patio with some enclosed roofed areas, it was the site of the 1981 prom. The theme selected was We,ve only just Begun based on a 1968 Carpenters song. That theme and the shades of blue color scheme were selected by Salio and fellow officers Laura Alatorre, Susan Kim and Tiffany London. Many couples attended the dance paying S36 to S38 per ticket which also included a tour of the Wax Museum on prom night and a complimentary pass to be used there anytime in the future. The band Surge played a well balanced mixture of pop, rock, new wave and mellow rock. An increase in the ticket price from last yearis S23 was blamed for the attendance which was lower than hoped for.

She Stoops to Conquer forced the actors to change from a normal California style of acting to an old England style, which consisted of several different postures, forms of move- ment, and the holding of hands in an upright position fas seen in some of the photosj Scott Freeman, an actor from the American Conservatory Theater of San Francisco, assistant directed for Director Susan Stauter. We all love Scott, and his great eye for the theater boosted 'She Stoops to Conquer, to heights we never thought possible, said Matt Ellsworth. Vicki Silva, a dance and mime instructor at CSUF, helped the entire cast with movement and posture exercises. She Stoops to Conquerl' is a very stylistic show requiring stylistic costumes. The costumes were rented at Dlympic Productions in Anaheim. The total rental cost ran about a thousand dollars. Though the play was not a favorite among some of the faculty during rehearsals, it seemed to change to a very enthusiast yes after the faculty saw it. We knew it would work from the beginning, and it did, said Lisa Harker. W 1. Senior Debbie Green explains to a servant the way she plans to fool her future lover.
