Right, Kate lLeisha Haileyl seems to want a little more privacy. Below, Charlie lBill Owensl just wants to know where the water goes. What happens when a man and a woman in their late forties find out they are going to have a baby? This question was answered with acclaims on November 4th, 5th, 6th, and 7th by the cast of Never Too Late. The show was clearly a hit the minute the characters were cast. The actors and actresses were: Greg Abbey lHarryl, Jenna Brown QEdithl, Leisha Hailey lKatel, Bill Owens lCharliel, Melanie Cannon lGracel, Tim Beninato lJamesl, Steve Rikkers lthe Mayorl, John Hatcher lthe Policemanl, and Dan Donan fthe Carpenterl. All of them were immensely creative in their roles, giving stronger believability to the characters. From the first day, these people worked well together, forming close-knit friendships between them. Director Jay Worden often says the best thing for a production is for the cast to work well together, and this group sure clicked. The cast met Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays, drilling their lines and blocking. During the three hour practices, they had to do calculus, English, chemistry, history, and all their other school work, and some had to work around athletics, as well. Despite these, however, the group pulled through, and showed West what they could do best. mssmmww. wfqpw we sxsm.,,, ....
