“Oklahoma!” rama students took to the stage to perform Roger's and Hammer-stein’s “Oklahoma!”, one of the longest running shows on Broadway. Directed by Frank Plut and Warren Schunneman and with the help of music director Janice Kimes and choreographer Lee Ann Herbert, the cast created a memorable show. The show contained many big dance numbers, the most spectacular being the “Dream Ballet.” Bill Balfanz and Wendy Waszut dazzled the audience with their intricute dance moves and acrobatic lifts. In another show-stopper, all thirty five members of the cast raised the roof with their intricate dance moves and acrobatic lifts. The cast and crew worked long and hard to get ready for their opening, which was a show for Senior Citizens. The cast often rehearsed until ten at night, and that is when the technical crew would begin. Judging by the result, the work was well worth the effort. The shows were performed two consecutive weekends. March 7, 14. 15. and 16. ▲ ► Curly.

Behind the Scenes Mo show could be performed properly without scenery, costumes, make-up and lights. Without publicity who would come to see the production? These elements of a play or musical are just as important as the actors. The set for the musical “Oklahoma” was designed by Kevin Noteboom whose sets for the Chimera Theater were critically acclaimed. Often the actors themselves got involved in the pre-production stages of the show. Senior Suzy Lee. who had a major role in the fall play. “The Torch Bearers” said. “It gave me such a feeling of accomplishment to act on a set I helped to create.” Set construction was, of course, not the only behind the scenes aspect of a show. Neal Luebke was responsible for “Oklahoma’s” costumes while Gret-chen Heath handled the publicity for both the musical and “The Torch Bearers.” Junior Lisa Frey said of her second year on the make-up crew, “It makes you feel like you’ve really helped out; and it's a lot of fun, too!” Every musical needs an orchestra. Students worked hard learning the musical score and practiced together after school. Janice Kimes took time out of her busy schedule to direct the orchestra for “Oklahoma.” Even the lights for Cooper’s shows were handled by students. Working the lights was a demanding job. The operator had to know the script and his cues almost as well as the actors themselves. It takes a special person to accept such responsibility. The behind the scenes crews were and always will be very valuable. Their diligence and support was greatly appreciated. They were the backboneof Cooper's theater.
