t i iitJt Greg Weiner, senior, performs improvised sign language to a deaf Pame Spencer, senior, in Children of a Lesser God . Deafness Challenges Cast It was the most de- manding role I ever had to perform because I had to be able to sign and com- municate with Greg as a deaf person would react. For Pame Spencer, who played a deaf Sara Nor- man Leeds, the experience of performing in the stage version of Children of a Lesser God was challeng- ing. Although this was not the first time the Luling drama department had decided to perform a play nominated for an Acade- my Award, it proved to be a large undertaking for the students to relate to deaf characters. It was a very interest- ing experience, Pame said after a workshop she attended to learn to com- municate with Greg through sign language. She signed during the whole play, while I faked every scene, Greg Weiner, who played Sa- rah ' s husband, James Leeds, said. According to Pame, the underlying theme of the play was deaf people aren ' t able to reach the world of the hearing. Hearing people can ' t penetrate the world of the deaf, and deaf people can ' t grasp the world of the hearing, so it has to be a compromise, a meeting of the minds, added Pame. Overall, the play proved to a a very interesting ex- perience Pame said. An experience that lent added practice for an all-star cast. Children of a Lesser God was just a prelude to another exciting and prof- itable year from the stu- dent actors directed by a new drama coach, Dina Richmond. ORGANIZATIONS 115
