Inherit the Wind INHERIT THE WIND, written by Jerome Lawrence and Robert E. Lee was not history. The events which took place in Dayton, Tennessee, during the scorching July of 1925 were clearly the genesis of this play. It had, however, an exodus entirely its own. Only a handful of phrases were taken from the actual transcript of the famous Scopes mon- key trial . Some of the characters of the play were related to the color- ful figures in that battle of giants; but they had life and language of their own—and, therefore, names of their own. Directors of the all school play were Mike Pangburn and Lana Stoltenburg. Different techniques for a set de- sign was created by Lana Stoltenburg. The produc- tion crew included major set construction--David Fieldsend, Kent Field - send, Chris and Jerry Johnson, and Jim Whipple; backstage assistance-- Maryjo Leesman, Brenda Nickelson, Gayle Sampson, Mike Thompson, props-- the cast. Actors Joe Hayes, Jean Stoley and Stephen Porter spend many hours rehearsing lines and stage positions. Barry Ccrmak applies those important last finishing touches to Nicholas Nemec's makeup. Joe Hayes relaxes before his performance as Henry Drummond while Kay Gorgensen of Black Hills State College tints his hair. 18
