Unexpected A night out with the ‘boys’ By Wallace King When Granddad decided 10 have some fun with one of his friends, the results were totally unexpected and provided the story of the senior play Grandad Steps Out April 12. Granddad (Stephen Rose) was considered an invalid by his daughter Mrs. Morton (Mona Lewis). She fed him nothing but soup and crackers while he dreamed of thick, juicy steaks. An old friend. “Big Jim Mahoney (David Smith), returned from “out in Arizona and planned to stage a supper for all his boyhood pals. The two sneaked out of the house, sending the rest of the family into panic. Granddad finally returned and restored the situation to normal. David's performance was especially notable to the audience. As soon as he walked onto the stage, the crowd burst into laughter. After the play he said, All that laughter really surprised me. I thought my fly was open. During the play someone sprayed David's cake with hair spray. He tried not to swallow it. but he had to say one more line before he left the stage. Those who watched carefully after the play noticed that he hit the perpetrator with a piece of cake during the class cheer. The practices, performances and jokes combined to make the play memorable for the cast. Melanie King said she had “a lot of fun. 1 really didn't think I would get a part, but 1 tried out anyway and I did. Putting the play together was a lot of work, but it was more fun than anything.
