CAROUSEL Through their combined efforts, the directors, choreographers, advisors, actors, crews, and an orchestra staged the play CAROUSEL in the auditorium on March 10 and 11. Lori Bresee and Jeff Sharlow starred as Julie Jordan and Billy Bigelow, two people who fall in love and marry. Sandy Stafslien played the role of Carrie Pepperidge, a naive girl who marries Enoch Snow, played by Mark Fosdal, and eventually raises seven prim and proper children. Joel Fischer played Jigger, a friend of Billy's who involved him in a robbery. In desperation, Billy stabs himself when the robbery goes awry. With the help of a heavenly friend, Keith Petrick, Billy goes to heaven where the starkeeper, Kevin Free, informs him that he had not done enough good deeds on earth to go through the gates. Billy then goes to earth to help his now fifteen year old troubled daughter, Louise, played by Lori Mertens. He brings with him a star and some fatherly advice which brings his wife and daughter new joy and assurance. Satisfied, Billy returns to heaven feeling that at last he has done something worthwhile. is
