All-School Play UP THE D 0 W N STAIRCASE' 'But I don't ge the pointf Well, then let it be a challenge to you? The setting-an inner-city high school. The story-the problems faced by a first-year teacher and how she handles the everyday troubles of her students. With the help of fellow teachers and her students, Sylvia Barrett. played by Liz Ebert, comes to know herself. Ms. Patricia Clifford directed the play March 15 and 16. Although the play 'Up the Down Staircase' is a comedy, it does illustrate many of the foibles of modern education. Perhaps Bel Kaufman is alerting us to recog- nize our inadequaciesf' stated Ms. Clifford. Mr. Paul Justice and the stage crew built the set with openings cut in the wall ala the f'Laugh-In Joke Wall . Senior Gary Hampton managed the stage crew, and soph- omore Margaret Johnson designed the school setting. The set and the matinee performance were another in the series of Marshall firsts . Up the Down Staircase proved to be a delightful, modern comedy that brought a great turn- out by the students and commu- nity. -Ene Ruusma ,av P. . .'id gigs rw J CAST Sylvia Barrett ......
