Drama presents classic L A ntigone , the first clas- sical tragedy produced in recent years, was presented as the second all school play. Centered basically around death, Antigone began with the princess Antigone CElaine Reddochj wanting to bury her dead brother. Due to the fact that the burial was against the wishes of King Creon fWade Reich- mannj, she was sentenced to death. Finding Antigone dead, her fiance Haiman CSteen Reichmannj killed himself. His death, in turn, caused the death of his mother CCarol Schneiterj. Besides being the only tragedy ever to be presented, Antigone was unique in other aspects. Using no instructions, save the script, a split chorus was used to tell the his- tory surrounding the story as the play progressed. Then, to illustrate what the chorus was saying, dancers fRichard Reed and Julie Rennerj per- formed interpretive choreography be- hind a scrim that allowed the audience to see only their shadows. The sets and costumes for Antigo- ne were not only handmade, but also originally designed. The size of the audience was limited, another first. The smaller audience made the presentation of the tragedy much better, because there were few- er distracting noises made by the members of the audience. Overall, according to those who at- tended the presentation of Antigo- ne, it was deemed successful. lt gave us a different type of play. We hadn't seen anything like this before, said Donna Barnett, junior. 1 1!The chorus leader CRandy Tho- massonb watches as the story un- 2 folds on the stage. 2!Cast of An- 3 tigone: Back row - Kent Swart.

Animals run the fabled able - a narration intended to enforce some useful truth or precept, especially one in which ani- mals speak and act like human be- ings. Twenty people were cast in the spring play, The Great Cross Coun- try Race, or better known as The Hare and the Tortoise. Nine stu- dents portrayed animals, while the remaining eleven played humans. The play opened with the forest animals trying to decide what kind of races to hold at their Sports Day. Despite suggestions from Mrs, Brush, the squirrel CVicki Fredrickj, that the contest be held to see who could run up trees the fastest, and from Mr. Spiney, the hedgedog CScott Peggy, to see who could roll down hills the fastest, there seemed to be no events in which more than one animal was willing to compete. They then decided that they would wait until the arrival of Mr. Fleet, the hare fRichard Reedj, to hold the annual cross country race. While waiting, the animals discov- ered a strange rock which turned out to be Mr. Sloe, the tortoise CMike Harringtonj. Because of the bragging of Mr. Fleet, Mr. Sloe decided to teach the hare a lesson and challenged him to the cross country race. At the start of the race the hare skipped ahead. But, little did Mr. Fleet realize as he scoffed at the tor- toise, how the race would end. The three-mile path took the com- petitors through six check points: the bramble thicket, the river bank, the grassy bank, Mrs. Brush's tree, half mile up the cornfield to the cot- tage, Frog Rock, and once around the quarry to the finish line. Because of Mr. Fleet's lack of con- centration, Mr. Sloe won the race to the woodlander's cheers of Thun- der on, old Torto, thunder on! I liked it! and lt was good! were often heard remarks from the four grade school audiences. lt let the children take part, said a grade school teacher and en- couraged them to get involved. lt was hard work, but it was worth it. lt was a lot of fun! said cast member Elaine Reddoch lt was quite and experience get- ting up at 5:30 to put on make-up, added Karla Reisch road race 1!Cast and crew of The Great Cross Country Race Back Row Datej Steen Reichmann flight crew chiefj Kent Swart CMr Sett the badgerj, Jim Chrisman QBrando Notcouthb, Dave Mathis, Emma Veith fProperties crew chiefb, Jim Bonnell, Lori Hayes Uackiej, Adele Miller Cstage managerj, Ann Giesen Chouse man- agerb, Yvonne Smith fSophia Notcouthj.
