Musical performed at Central Fiddler on the Roof was the musical chosen by the music and drama departments this year. The directors were Barb Gebhardt, James 5mith, David Hanson, Barb Henn- ings, and Debbie Kraegal. Tryours began in January after it was announced this year's show was going to be the featured attraction at the grand opening of the newly renovated Central auditorium. We were very lucky to be able to use Central's facilities. We tried many things we could never do here, commented senior Ron Maurer. During the first stage of ouditions, students sang a solo. After sing- ing, students were colled back to show their stage ability by performing o scene. When this portion of the audition was through, another coll back list was posted. The remaining students were then taught a simple dance sequence and read ports from the Fiddler script. Practices began immediately and were held after school and on Sundays up until performance time. While spending all of this time together cast and crew members became close and shared something special. Senior Wendy Hochstertler shared her feelings about the show: Being in a musical is one of the best experiences anyone could have! After being with the some people every day and night foi three months a special family type bond 1 left. I'm really going to miss it! Senior Rhonda Hartman reflected on the cost and crew's dedication saying, Thl; year's show was a very professional pro duction os a result of everyone's hare work. And the three months of preparo tion paid off with near sellout perfor mances as over 4500 people attended the production which was given March 19, 20 and 21. 12
