Cadets perform in plays, concerts Cadets had many opportunities during the year to become involved in some type of showmanship or to back their fellow Concordians as they went before the lights. The drama department produced three plays during the year. The fall musical starred Lisa Rump, a princess fresh out of the swamps, in Once Upon a Mattress, which was a take-off on The Princess and the Pea. The Toybox production, The Cat Princess, amused audiences young and old alike when a princess was turned into a cat. Arsenic and Old Lace, the spring play involved two old ladies who thought it was their duty to kill old men and bury them in the cellar. To support our teams, cheerleaders arranged rousing pep sessions incl uding a tribute to our volleyball team after state finals. Teachers and students could create their own skits. Half-time performances at ball games included music by the varsity band and routines by the Pom Pon girls, twirler and drill teams. Instrumentalists and vocalists performed at the Fall Band Concert, the Pop Concert, the Christmas Concert, the Spring Sing, the Spring Band Concert. An average of 350 students participated in these events. Junior Lori Schinnerer expressed her feelings this way.
