“Drama is a whole different experience. With some things we’ve done, I really think It Takes A Nut” ► Friends gather around Aunt Let- ty (Cheryl Huseman) after she was supposed- ly shot in the ear by a burglar. ▲Miss Marple (Denise Cordrey) pulls off Leticia ' s pearls to expose the scar that proves her real identity. ►After the threat of a murder, Phillipa (Judy Tomaszewski), Julia (Mercedes Sheehy) and Patrick (Tom Clrbanec) discuss who could mastermind such a crime. This comes from Mike Milanowski who, while playing Oscar Madison, had to unveil his heart-laden underwear in the Odd Couple.” The summer play, Mr. Coed,” was an opportunity to introduce new students into the drama program. The play was double-cast for more in- volvement. It gave newcomers a chance to gain experience for the coming year. The comedy told the story of a boy (Tom Clrbanec) who charades as a girl to save a private girls school from being sold. “The Odd Couple was the fall play. It had a relatively small cast, due to less involvement in drama, since numerous other activities were going on. The comedy by Neil Simon was shown as a matinee to the high school. The winter play, A Murder is An- nounced,” was a mystery by Agatha Christie. After two killings and an at- tempted third, the killer is finally caught by the heroic inspector. The play was used as a teaching device for junior high students. They learn- ed about plot and acting of a play, also the backstage aspects. “I have the most fun giving plays to the junior high kids. They give their full attention to the production and some of them get interested in drama. They are the future of the program,” noted Joy McClymont. 22 — Plays

Circle Of Life The whole idea of the carousel is to show the complete circle of life. From beginning to end it ' s a com- plete cycle,” said Joy McClymont. The carousel was borrowed from Crown Point High School for Thes- pian Troupe 1852’s production of the musical Carousel.” The play was presented to the public on April 22 and 23. A matinee was shown to the junior high on the 22nd also. The play took place in the late 1800s and the costumes required long skirts and bustles. Mrs. Dorothy Tortoricci did research into the period to make costumes for the cast. ' Make-up also took a long time because there were so many actors to prepare,” said Vykke Young, make-up coordinator. The lead roles were played by Mike Milanowski and Joy McCly- mont. Supporting roles were played by Shawn Sheehy, Jocelyn Sheehy, Tim Dines and Mercedes Sheehy. Student directors were Cheryl Huseman and Gaythee Young. A poster contest was held in the sixth grade to cut down the cost of advertising and to generate interest. Cash prizes were awarded to four places. The play came off remarkably well considering all of the setbacks that occured. I grew to know a lot of the kids in the play much better and made a lot of new friends. It was a neat experience to leave with,” said senior Mercedes Sheehy. 24 — Spring Play
