Difficulty overcome in Pygmalian Othello Pygmalian and Othello were two difficult plays pre- sented by this year's Drama department. Pygmalian was difficult because of long lines to be memorized and the dramatic blocking involved or the ac- tions the actors made on stage. Othello was in the same manner, extremely dramatic, contained difficult lines and had an enormous cast. Even the costumes presented some difficulty in that all had to be designed and made by hand by Mrs. Eason and Mrs. Davis. This year's drama finale was the musical, Fiddler on the Roof. A combined cast of 34 drama and chorus students coordinated singing, acting, dancing, and musical direct- ing by a Tucson Symphony member to present an excel- lent performance. 1.
