s M ENIORS DISPLAY ENTAL DEF CIENCIES IN “THE CURIOUS SAVAGE” A mental institute provided the off-beat environment for the senior play, The Curious Savage . The play dramatized a family where the children committed their step- mother to a mental institute because she would not hand over control of the immense Savage estate. The exciting action, com- bined with the character representation of the inmates at the institute, made this one of the most unusual plays ever presented. The cast was composed of Henry Burruss, Nancy Davis, Becky Elliott as Lilly Belle, Henry Ferry as Dr. Emment, Theresa Hilton as Miss Willie, Ed Kirk as Samuel, Alice Guerrant as Mrs. Ethel Savage, Jeff O ' Dell as Titus, Dottie Turner as Faerie Mae, Richard Taylor as Jeff, and Martha Wachs- muth. Henry Burruss displays the agility of Hannibal while Nancy Davis, as Florence, gives him none of her attention. Actions from the unspeakable Mrs. Paddy, played by Martha Wachsmuth, gain glances from members of the cast. She bit me ! Of course it hurts! The money was in that stupid teddy bear! 15

ONE-ACT PLAY CAPTURES SUPERIOR STATE RATING Henry Ferry has Jeff O ' Dell in the palm of his hand. The cast of The Giant Stair poses after the first performance . Beacky Elliott expresses her part as the half- wit realistically and naturally. Although rehearsals were long and tedious, the cast of The Giant Stair came up with the only superior rating given at the district one act play festival. This superior rating enabled the cast to travel to Charlottesville, where the play again received excellent comments. The plot revolved around a murder and the suspense gripped the audience in their search for the murderer. Was it the wife of the victim, played by Dottie Turner? Was it the sheriff, played by Jeff O ' Dell, who jumped at the squeak of a door? Or was it the victim ' s deranged sister-in-law, played by Becky Elliott? The success of the play can be measured by the excellent rating received not only at the district festival but at the state festival as well . A second one act play, A Midsummer Night ' s Dream , was presented to the school and public by a group of energetic seniors. Through the produc- tion of this light and whimsical comedy, these se- niors combined profit with the enjoyment of producing a dramatic play. Members of the cast of A Midsummer Night ' s Dream exhibit elaborate costumes. 14
