Many new performers trod the boards, giv- ing the old place a new, and very welcome touch. Holiday Hoot saw quite a number of per- formers making their debuts. There were CHIP GLIEDMAN, DAVID WINSTON, ALAN DON- NENFELD and EZRA MERSEY. Spider Islandj' one of the scariest and eeriest productions ever, was Ken-Mont's second produc- tion . . . offering a heart thumping shock almost every second. Was Daniel M-ay really dead?- Was that his ghost wailing in the attic? --A truly great cast gave their all ,... some even their lives. PAUL LOCKE, JEFF ROSE, ARNIE ROWAN, TOM COHEN, BILL COHEN, and JON BROWN gave excellent performances. Direct from the television screen to the Ken- Mont stage came the next smash-hit Get Sm-art , . . . a show everybody loved. MICHAEL BLUM- STEIN as Maxwell Smart, BOBBY REICHER as Agent 99, MIKE ROSEN as Princess Ingrid, PAUL SILVERMAN as the Chief, MIKE FASS as Agent 44, DAVE DOUGLASS -as Mr. Big, BOBBY ENTIN -as Mr. Fortune Cookie and STAN MAR- CUS as the Professor-a truly great bunch of actors. Get Smart will -always be talked about as one of Ken-Montis good productions, thanks -also to the performances of JEFF DANIELS and BRAD GOLDBERG. Look Who's Here presented variety perfOI'II1CfS to the Ken-Mont audience. EVAN SCHWARTZ- MAN played a dazzling medley from Fiddler O13 the Roof? The Cardinals sang the songs of Oliver and Bill Villano and JON BROWN dazzled .the spectators with their terpsichory. A good everung! Camp Run-amuck,s cast pGI'feCt1Y Comph' mented ia well-written script. JOHN ROSS, LARRY KLITZMAN, STACEY SIIVION, RICH EISEN- BERG, SCOTT COOPER, TODD ARNOW and ANDY LIEBMAN were simply magnificent in a musical comedy with a touch of seriousness. Camp Runamuck had the boys laughing one minute and holding back a tear the next. The audience that cheered was the one who watched The Mouse That Roared . STEVE DANIELS as Tully Bascom guided us through the Duchy of Fenwick, that mystical, magical little vil- lage halfway between here and there. MARTIN SILVERMAN, NEIL GARDNER, BRAD BRONK, MARTY WHELAN and STEVE TAFT comprised this clever group of actors. The scenery for The Mouse That Roared was excellent as was the scenery for all of the Ken-Mont Playhouse pro- ductions this season. l A SCENE FROM SPIDER ISLAND - - - --1 - -1-:asa-.1-sm:E:af.111fi...'- -- u:-.:i+1:e'-1-.-f-wr: f.::Ef ,g if -. f' - J ---- 1ffff-f'-fm Pi-L ' 'r e-----.-1:.
