ar' S tfltlhh.. or those involved with the play, it was three long months of tension, hard work, and excitement. Due to a heavy workload, Ms. Scully, the director of Brashear's previous produc- tions, was unable to assist in the making of last years play, Bye Bye Birdie. Under the new direction of Brian and Leslie Sullivan, everyone gave up many hours of free time in order to pull the show together for a successful late April production. Conrad Birdie, an Elvis Presley type idol, is inducted into the army. As a final promotion, his manager, Albert Peterson, gives one lucky fan, Kim MacAfee, the chance to kiss Conrad and have him sing her his farewell song, One Last Kiss. The lives of Albert, his secretary Rosie, and the townspeople are turned upside down until, at last, each finds his or her own true feelings and loyalties in the end. 137

Matt, you're supposed to play the music, not eat it! azz Band really have the beat! Lisa Faloon surrounded by drums during the Jazz Band concert last spring. rashear's Crchestra and Jazz Band are two musical groups that we can be proud of. Each year these groups perform for the middle schools that feed into Brashear. This lets the musicians show off their talent as well as recruit musicians that will come to Brashear. These concerts have always been highly success- ful. The Grchestra, which consists of strings, Woodwinds, brass and percussion plays classical music along with other pop tunes such as Encl- less Love and just the Way You Are. The Jazz Band which features brass, saxophones and drums play up beat jazz and rhythm and blues. They are always a big hit during their concerts. Both of these groups are under the musical direc- tion of Mr. Nick Cheberenchiclc. He is proud of his fine musicians, and everyone at Brashear is too. 139
