North, South Actors Tell Musical Story Cf George M. Cohan - utting on George M I was just a sparkle in Director Gerald Mur- phy's eyes until it became a North-South musical May 3-6, 1978. All the fame didn't come easy though. Tryouts wer- en't hard, but competition was difficult, there were a lot of good actors and actresses trying out, said Jeff Clonts, who played Jerry Cohan in the play based on the life of George M. Cohan. Jeff also said, lf some of the dances weren't known prior to tryouts, it was difficult to get a main part. Leads from Glenbrook South were Clonts, Robin Lee Uosiej, David Steinhorn lSam Harrisj, Beth Herrman QAg- nesj, and Charlotte Laystrom lfay Templetonj. One critic called the show a one man show, but without the cho- rus and dancers, the show wouldn't have been as suc- cessful. Rehearsals started two weeks after the variety show, on March 11, from 3:30 p.m. until 6:00 p.m. for the first two weeks. During the final weeks, rehearsals lasted until 10, 11 or even 12:00 midnight as some parents will admit, they came to South upset about the late practices. 20fNorth-South Musical Iohn Dolf and Jeff Clonts seem to be having fun in this colorful number in George M along with the other casts. we fri?
