'Where’s Charley’ Staged at Gallery “Where’s Charley?,” was not only the title of the fall play, but the question continually on the lips of all characters. Bill Baker, playing the dual role of Charley and Charley’s Aunt, appeared and dissap-peared in every area of the set. The first performance of the drama department was staged at the Gallery Theater in downtown McMinnville. It was the first high school sponsored production to be staged there. The facility afforded the dramatists the opportunity to participate in first-rate theater. The audience and cast joined together to close the play by singing Once In Love With Amy.
