 Uyste ty [AJrvfajis CMobcmh ' 'Dow t Deaifi ’ When five once famous mystery writers get together to write a mys- tery series for t.v., they produce a mystery comedy, “Done to Death. written by Fred Charmichel. The five characters included Jes- sica and Whitney Olive (Colleen Fahr and Jozef McKesson), a hus- band and wife team, who thought any time was a good time for a mar. tini, and Mildred Z. Maxwell (lulie Ward), a sassy old lady, whose sto- nes always ended with a surprise. There were also Rodney Duckton (Steve Jeffirs), a slightly okler writer, who took cracks about his age throughout the play, and Brad Bene- dict (Tom Treat), a tough guy, who wrote stories about secret agents, sexy ladies, and secret devices. Although attendance was lower then expected and money was lost on the play, the people who did see it gave it a standing ovation. Steve Jeffirs stated that “one reason for the low attendance was bad public- ity and no response from the com- m unity.

' VimJa' ’ U fatev Success Instead of a spring play, the drama club put on a winter play, Oracula by Bram Stoker. The change was due to conflicts with the musical and with speech team. The play revolved around sickly lucy Seward. Her father. Dr. Seward was baffled with the illness and called on Dr Von Helsmg to take the case. Von Helsing suspected a vampire as the cause for Lucy to recover, the vampire had to be stab- bed by a stake through the heart. The play was a definite success. Two of the reasons were the props and special effects, such as the cof- fin from Van Glidner's funeral home, and the fog machine for Dra- cula's entrances and the trap door that led to the basement.
