IVIAUD RIORDAN FINDS her boy friend, Collin Talbo, after Collin had spent the night in the woods. COLLIN, VERENA AND Catherine Creek prepare to spend the night in their treehouse in the woods. Talisman Theatre presented the second play of the year, The Grass Harp, under the direction ot lVlr. James Hill. lVlr.

Two sisters and their conflict is the subject ofthe Truman Capote play. Dolly and Verena Talbo are the sisters who cannot get along. Dolly moves into the woods with her nephew and housemaid because of an argument with her sister. The townspeople come to bring them back, and in the ensuing struggle the nephew is shot. The sisters are reunited because of the tragedy. One of the more challenging aspects ofthe pre- sentation was the technical work involved in building the scenery. The set, designed by Nlr. Hill, required the construction of a paper mache tree and a compli- cated interior set. David Bingham and Skip Howes were in charge of the set work. lVlike Chisman headed the light crew, and the head ofthe costume crew was Pegy lVlclVlillen. Responsible for the properties was June Lawson, and make-up work was supervised by Laura Engel. WOUNDED BY BIG Ed, Collin Talbo is comforted by Catherine Creek as the citizens gather around.
