The ime Club Presents, Where Were You When The Sound Went Off On April 26, 1974 the Hersey Mime Group presented a fine show entitled, Where Were You When the Sound Went Off?', It dealt with eight different mime interpreta- tions. The group put in a great deal of time and practice to make the production a rewarding experience. Many of the mimes were written by a senior, Andy Libman. The faculty sponsor of the group was Mrs. Pam Fraser, with special recognition to Mr. Wally Bivins. The cast included: Laur- en Beach, George Bozlinski, Ryan Plank, Val Puzzo, Wen- dy Erdenberger, Beth Zold, George Simon, Andy Libman, Donna Lenard, Angie Simopoulos, Moisette Sintov, Col- leen Joyce, Karen Tyrell, and Janine French.

Summer Musical Oklahoma Rodgers and Hammerstein's delightful musical, Okla- homa, was presented on August 1,2,3, and 4 by the joint efforts of students from Hersey and Buffalo Grove High Schools. The musical, starring Mike Ellis as Curly and Diane Gabbei as Laurey, took its setting in the Indian ter- ritory, which is now known as Oklahoma. The time-setting set the play at the turn of the century. The co-star- ring role of Ado Annie was brilliantly portrayed by Diane Buteau and Nancy Weinberg, two of Hersey's outstanding actresses. These efforts, combined with those of other cast members, crew, and musical accompaniment, proved the play to be one of the finest ever staged in our school district.
