Weeks Gimme! Students in the Oral lnterp classes, as they called they, wrote and performed in various reader's theatres, which they took to tournaments around the state. Solo acting, duet acting, poetry and prose were some of the other categories open to students competing in the tournaments. Parkview's debate team, however, had its hands full without competing in other events. Debaters spend much of their time researching the year's debate topic on the United States' foreign policy. As a result of the new auditorium, classes in Stage Mangement were added to the curriculum. Stage Management dealt with the technical aspects of running a theatre such as sound and lighting equipment, set building and the production of a show. I like the course, especially learning about all of the new technical equipment, said Zina Cyrus, junior.
