Emile DeBecque (Ron Spradling) enchants Nurse Nellie For-bush ()ulie Seavy) on his terrace. South Pacific The select choir, under the direction of Mrs. Claudia Irwin, provided a very enchanting evening for an audience captivated by such musical numbers as There is Nothing Like a Dame, I'm Gonna Wash that Man Right out of My Hair, and This Nearly Was Mine, which were highlighted by a few falling chairs and helmets. The show featured some great dance numbers arranged by Miss Cindy Noxon which proved to be as enjoyable for the cast as for the audience. Major roles were held by Julie Seavy as Nellie Forbush, Ron Spradling as Emile DeBecque, Lisa Livesay as Bloody Mary, Jerry Graham as Luther Billis, Jay Carpenter as Lt. Cable, and Shelley Knutson as Liat. The musical accompaniment was provided by Steve Walters, Jo Reed, Kurt Berg-quist, and Peter Schmidt.

Bienvenue a I' Extravaganza! A tremendous success! That is the only way to describe Extravaganza 75. All the hard work and planning of Miss Cindy Noxon and her French students certainly paid off. This show displayed the new spirit that started in the language department, which also ran over into various activities such as the State Language Fair and weekend retreat which was for all French students. The audience was certainly caught up in the enthusiasm as they watched a variety of vaudeville acts, selections from Cabaret, and The Madwoman of Chaillot, a play performed entirely in French. It was an exciting evening for all who were present and anxiously awaiting Extravaganza 76. Miss Noxon precisely teaches Lisa Livesay and Jennie McCarey the cabaret dance.

Under the supervision of Ms. Rhella Spiering, a number of interested students got to try their hand as disc jockeys, and one student in particular showed a lot of talent and enough persistence to stay with it the entire year; this bass voice is better known as Brad Wear. Others who joined him throughout the year included Rich Mason, Alice Bair, Sarah McCarthy, Sabina Lieske, and Sawne Gundel. KSIR also provided much experience and material to help the class, along with the many people who donated their time for interviews and commentaries.
