No, it wasn't a slumber party, it was the musical, The Pajama Game. As in many years past, the music and theater departments put on a spring musical, and this year it was the second time The Pajama Game had been done. Playing to the packed crowd for 6 night time shows and one matinee were a cast of over 70 talented students. These students were selected from a field of over 100 people who tried out, making the competition difficult. These dedi- cated cast and crew members spent nearly three months rehearsing every day, and putting up with Mr. Simmons constantly yelling, Project Whimp! This year Mr. Simmons, the director, was as- sisted by Sybil Micco, and student director, Barb Amberg. Other people deserving recognition were Sharon Wright, for choreography, Rex Nel- son, for directing the orchestra, and Steve Mein- inger for his choral assistance. The cast worked hard and put on an excellent show for the audience, but it couldn't have been done without the strong leadership of some of the seniors. Some particularly outstanding perfor- mances were given by Tony O'Donnell, in his role as Sid, Steve Staley, as Hines, and a surprising Mae, played by Kristi Collotzi. They made it all seem like the real thing, a contract dispute in a pajama factory, a quest for true love between Sid and Babe, the constant fighting of Hines and Gladys, and Mr. Hassler trying to be a good boss for his overworked and underpaid factory work- ers. Lets hope that in years to come there will be casts of characters that can match the skill and professionalism of the cast of this year's Pajama Game.
