Theatre gets the spirit To spark enthusiasm for Homecoming, the Theatre Arts Department and Thespi¬ ans added The History of Homecom¬ ing—Part I to this year ' s activities. The show was an original comedy written by theatre students and created specifically to boost school spirit. Coach Joe Lorig commented, The show had a short range effect on the stu¬ dent body and administrators, but I didn ' t feel it had an effect on the team. It might have if the show had been scheduled be¬ fore the game. The show’s script poked fun at choice students, teachers, and administra¬ tors. One audience member said, I laughed so hard at the Teachers as Children ' skit! How did they get away with it? Cast member Andrea Mortimer said, I never felt like I was a part of Homecom¬ ing until the show. I think the show was a really positive part of Homecoming this year. It was a mega-blast!” What does the Part I” in the show ' s title mean? Will there be a History of Homecoming—Part II ? Only time will tell.
