I Why don't I feel smart? asks Charlie of Prof. Nemer tClarence Mercerj, ur B t Sheldon Cjeff Teen-age Charlie comes back to haunt. Flowers For Algernon Challenging To Flowers for Algernon was the tragic story of a man whose intel- lect develops from that of a moron to a genius-only to discover that he will lose it again. Several problems were involved in the production of Flowers for Algernon. There were over 50 light cues which were managed by Bill Winningham. The play also involved a great deal of acting on the part of the main character, Dan Lawson, who realistically portrayed both an idiot and a genius. Mr. Lanier, the drama teacher, stated that this play was one of the most difficult for high school stu- dents to perform, on a scale with The Diary of Anne Frank and The Miracle Worker. Presented on May 6, 7, and 8, Flowers for Algernon drew a full house all three nights. 30 Flowers For Algernon Cast Charlie Gordon . , Dan Lawson Alice Kinnion Dr. Struss . ,,.. ..,.
