When an audience sees a produc- tion like Oklahoma, performed in the fall, they don't think of all the things that have gone on backstage to make the play a success like set construction, lighting and sound. The set for Oklahoma was partly constructed by Cary Cox, Long Nguyen, Lewis Bacher and various cast members. The other parts of the set like the backdrop and scenery were rented from the Promise Valley Playhouse in Salt Lake City. Bacher and Cox picked up the rented scenery in the school truck. On the way back to Lyman, the truck stalled in the middle of the highway in the dead of night. Cox said, Here l was waiting for some- one to stop and give me a ride to Lyman, hoping no nut would. But what happens? A guy with a shotgun in his front seat stopped and gave me a ride. l sweated it out for a few minutes until he told me he was go- ing hunting. It was a very interesting experience. The house and Judd's shack were the largest props that had to be con- structed. These both took a lot of time because they had extra details to make them look realistic. The construction and painting was done mostly on weekends. Painting was difficult because we had to mix about 50 old paints and look around for brushes, Bacher said. Sound was monitored by John An- derson. He was in charge of setting up the microphones and making sure the amplifier was turned to the right decibel so that everyone would hear the actors sing and speak. With the money going to Friends for the Needy, Susan Apgood auctioned off box lunches at the cast party after Oklahoma. Musical 29

Mike Hicks said, The Lyman proms are the best proms I have seen. The prom was well decorated and the students were well behaved. Warnick added, This prom was a lot better than last year's and was really nice even though we didn't spend a lot of money. Cox noted, The most exciting part of prom for me was working with the students who were dressed in jeans and grub- bies and then seeing the final perfor- mance when they were dressed up at prom. The dance lasted until mid- night. After breakfast The Best of Times was shown at the Valley The- ater. Prom ll
