There is always an air of excitement while casting is going on, and most of us were looking forward either to taking part in the production or at least to seeing it at Tec. Voc. where it was to take place on February 3rd, 4th and 5th in the evening with a matinee on February 2nd. The day for auditions finally arrived and when all the principal parts were allotted and the choruses arranged, the long gruelling practices still lay ahead. It is to the credit of our directors, Miss Marjorie Colpitts and Miss Jessie Harrow, that the operetta turned out to be such a success. There must have been days when they wondered if it was worth all the time and effort being put into it, but a sense of humour on their part and some of the antics of the cast kept things on a fairly even keel and the final results proved quite satisfactory. The operetta was well attended at each performance and the flirtatious antics of the judge, Abe Anhang; the characterizations of the handsome defendant, Bob Rob¬ bie; the exuberant quotations of the lawyer, Ted Starr; the two beauties in the roll of the bride, Elizabeth Zarusinski and Dianne Penner; the gentle warbling of the public and the boisterous decision on the jury all helped to add to the success of the perfo rmances. The members of the cast realized that the success was due not only to the part they played but also to the work of the various committees, such as make-up, stage crews, costumes, ushers, ticket sellers, who all contributed their efforts in any way. Many of us will never again have a chance to take part in a real live stage show or thrill to the mysteries of being backstage. Therefore this is a memory of our school days which will be treasured in our book of souvenirs as the curtain falls on this phase of our lives. 46

DRAMA CAST I Trudy Cohen Dennis Johnson Lorraine Kurtz Heidi Fleming Heather Robertson CAST II Arlene White Jim Sesak Kay Kerr Betty Tait Bev Sinclair “SUNDAY COSTS FIVE PESOS’ T HIS year, with Junior and Senior High students participating, a Drama Club was formed with Mr. Werier as the director. The play “Sunday Costs Five Pesos”, a one-act comedy was chosen for presentation by two casts. This play and the operetta “Trial by Jury” were put on February 2-5 at the Tec.-Voc. School, Cast I performing Friday and Saturday evenings and Cast II performing Thursday evening and Wednesday afternoon. Despite many cases of jitters, all agreed that it had been a great success and was over all too soon. Cast I performed at the Logan Avenue Neighbor¬ hood House where it was received with enthusiasm. A tape recording was taken at this performance and later played back to the performers. Cast I also performed at the Selkirk Mental Hospital February 23. The students enjoyed having Mr. Werier as “the head” of Drama Club and working for him was a plea¬ sure. Considering the talent endowed upon Lord Selkirk students, we expect a good turn-out for the Drama Club of 1956. 47
