Mike Leidel rehearsed the song Road to Freedom with the other members of his rock band, the Never Mind. The song was written by a member of the band. VARIETY SHOW The overall general theme of 'Applause' creates an informal atmosphere. The variety show has excellent talent, although it is unfortunate that it is so competitive. It's a real experience trying to mold together a show with people of diverse attitudes and talents. It combines a multitude of talent for an enjoyable two hours. There is no variety in the Variety Show. VM-'ij These girls, dressed as midgets, provided comedy as they acted as mischievous stagehands.

GEORGE WASHI GTO SLEPT HERE C V Why did you try out for the play? Because I'm a ham, and I like to act. I felt I could meet some new people. You see the same people in your classes everyday. Basically, because it's a comedy and doesn't involve serious acting. I like to make people laugh. I enjoy being involved in the Nicolet Drama Department. I go for the fun of doing something after school. I really didn't care what part I got. I don't have a speaking part, but I like it. I've had no experi- ence before. Since it's a small part, there's no chance of flub- bing it up. Nothing to worry about except maybe falling on my face. The rehearsals are wild, It's a comedy. The cast - we're all crazy. Instead of doing the play, we should do one of our re- hearsals. It,s really funny. Nobody's memorized their lines yet, and when someone messes up a line, everyone laughs. Sometimes it seems like we're not getting anything done, but we really do. X Terrie Zens, playing Annabelle . Fuller, followed the script, an- ticipating one of her typical I grievance speeches.
