Presenting Because one period a week is not sufficient time to complete their work, the twenty-seven members of Miss Clute’s Stage Craft Club spend study periods and out-of-school time in preparing the stage for such events as the senior play, the operetta, the band concert, the fashion show, and the dramatic productions. In preparing for these productions the club builds, paints, and erects flats, repaints scenery, fixes lights, and sets the stage.
