With the stage set, actors well re- hearsed, stage cues tight, and the lights down low, the curtain opened on U.T.B.U. The week prior to open- ing was hectic and the cast won- dered if the ‘‘show would go on”’ due : 7 to the energy crisis. The school board consented to performances on two of the three scheduled nights. Keeping with tradition, DeKalb staged another rousing comedy. Ina critic’s eye this is one of the more difficult plays to produce, but under guidance of Gerry Nagel the drama department entertained its audi- ences with excellence. Kay Stonek- ing probably created one of the best character portrayals on a DeKalb stage. The technical crew also did a su- perb job in creating numerous be- lievable stage gimmicks and special effects. THE ROMANCE BETWEEN Anastasia Amber and Eugene Boyer is watched with interest by Connie Tufford (Lisa Fee) and Mother Amber. HEAD BOMBER, WILLIAM Uggims (Brian Fee) admires the Oscar that was previously won by J. Francis Amber (Jim Schmidt). 22 SCHOOL PLAY
