T525 ' 52 ll! E 2- 1 Z! A NEW MURDER MYSTERY MUSICAL 5 S v . 1 Book, Mu5z'c and Lyric: by Ti IAMES MCDONALD, DAVID VOS :Q QQ 81 ROBERT CERLACH iii , Additional M usic bi ED LINDERMAN ff' XX . 'I .ff ,.. :tv J 4- H .f, , ln spite of all the undermining factors that worked against this fall's theatrical production, Something's Afoot was an utter success. The determination and sacrifice of the dramatic and musical directors, Daniel Kryston, and Patricia Garrison, plus the hard work of the cast and technical crew produced yet another fine play at Jesuit. The play presented a wide variety of characters, ftypical of Agatha Christie's 1930's mystery thrillersj, which were, in turn, portrayed by capable thespians. Miss Tweed CCorina Fiiosj, the super sleuth, baffled the audience with her amazing deductive logic. The true-blue hero, Geoffery fAlbert Bacchinij, won the audience's heart as well as the heart of the incomparably inno- cent ingenue Hope Langdon CElise Ftadfordj. Colonel Gil- weather CMark Daussesj proved to be a crowd pleaser by deal- ing with the whole predicament as he would a battle in World War l. Nigel Ftancour CLuls Rodriquezb, the greedy nephew, provided a sharp contrast to Gilweather with his diabolical schemes. The butler and the maid, Clive QBryant Sheehyj and Lettie fCathy Corfeej, helped maintain a unique pace in the action by combining Clive's proper English manner with Let- tie's saucy Cockney. The antics of the indolent caretaker Flint CScott Hamiltony, proved as amusing as Lady Manley Prove's tMargaret Orrj Anglicized French. Moreover, Doctor Gray- barn's CSherburn Adamsy one great flaw, his simpleminded- ness, led to his tragic end as well as a few substantial chuck- les. Elise Radford swoons in a musical number The entire cast of In summation, Something 's Afoot provided a dazzling array of characters which contributed to an evening of entertainment. What a lovely house

300 This year's Spring Musical was The Man of La Mancha The plot involves the Spanish playwright Don Miguel Cervantes who is in prison awaiting trial by the Inquisition after he had foreclosed on a church while working as a tax collector. For amuse- ment, the other prisoners decide to subject Cer- vantes to a mock trial where he must defend himself against charges that he is an idealist, a bad poet and an honest man. Cervantes presents his defense in the form of a play using as his hero one Alonso Qui- jana who has been driven mad by all of the evil in the world and now calls himself Don Quixote, knight errant of La Mancha. As Don Quixote, he sets out to destroy evil and win fame and honor in the name of his dear lady, a local prostitute, named Aldonza. He names her Dulcinea. The situations of this strange story were well acted and the humor was broadly played. Outstanding performances were given by Albert Bacchini as the outrageous Don Quixote and Sherri Dozier as the tough street-wise Aldonza. The supporting roles were well played by John Adams as Sancho, Don Quixote's faithful squire, Bryant Sheehy as Doctor Carrasco, the cynical psychiatrist, Mark Dausses as the Innkeeper, Bill Lee as the Padre, Elise Radford as Antonia, Kari Miller as the housekeeper, Frank Zavril as the barber and Steve Martin as Pedro, the head muleteer. The Man of La Mancha was indeed an evening of good entertainment, well acted and congratulations go to Mr. Dan Kryston, the director. new I I ' i K t Don Quixote and Aldonza share a scene ,xt Don Quixote Aldonza Sancho Dr Carrasco The Innkeeper The Padre Antonia Housekeeper The Barber Pedro Muleteers Capt. ofthe Inquisition Guard Maria Fermina Prisoner Moorish Dancer tg? 2 Tiivii 23?
