drama-A New Class at NHS-- A new class, under the direction of Mrs. Burnett, was offered this year entitled drama. Instead of performing separate plays, Junior and Senior plays, the drama classes presented all the plays. The drama classes took quite a few trips this year. The first trip was to the Oklahoma Theatre Center—a three act performance by professional actors, “The Corn is Green.” The next trip was to Danny’s Day, a live television show. The drama classes were his guests. The last was to the Oklahoma University Drama Workshop. They saw the play “Our Town.” College students portrayed all the parts with the exception of one. The movie actor, Lew Ayers, was the narrator. The drama classes presented two three act plays, “Rest Assured,” and “Me and my Shadow.” They also put on six one act plays, “Sweet Sixteen,” “Bond Between,” “If Girls Ask Boys for Dates,” “Suzie was a Vampire,” “Oh Baby,” and “Shock of His Life.” Proceeds from the three act plays were divided between the Juniors and Seniors. Proceeds from the one act plays went to the Drama Department. I am your master!!!!!!!!!!” And she says don’t peek out the curtains!!!!!!!!!!” 30
