Mikado leads, left to right, are Jack Strickland, Toby Chodoff, Margie Hertz, John Williams, Richard Douglas, Judy Hays, and Steve Miles. Our Orchestra Practiced To Perfection From last year’s production of HMS Pinafore, Mr. Messick changed to a Japanese theme. The Mikado, a Gilbert and Sullivan operetta, was chosen as this year’s showcase for the talents of the sophomore chorus. Singers for the leading roles were selected from the sophomore, junior, and senior classes. Our own orchestra under the direction of Mr. Pet- ranck provided the musical background, while the following assisted in the production: Mr. Butterfield, Mrs. Anne Chod- ofT, Mr. Motovich, Mrs. Kenneth R. Kenerick, Mr. Mullin, and Mr. Williamson. Our curiosity was piqued by students in Japanese cos- tumes and a display featuring cherry blossoms, sampans, and a building labeled Oko Moto’s Sukiyaki. Public interest was steadily mounting when the flu germs struck and the Friday night performance had to be cancelled. Saturday evening the cast was delighted to be playing to a packed house—gym, that is. With kimonos and cherry trees to lend the proper atmosphere, a Gilbert and Sullivan operetta was successfully adapted to our theater in the round. Operetta fans were still able to recognize Yum-Yum, Pitti-Sing, and other famous characters in their new setting, while the un- initiated discovered the gay music and the pleasant nonsense which made The Mikado so popular not only with young people but with everyone who likes fun for its own sake. This total cast picture tells the story! Cooperation was imperative and cooperate they did. Local critics praised the show. 18
