Kismet, the 1982 Spring Musical, marked the 25th anni- versary of musicals at St. Ambrose College. Since 1958, it has been a tradition to perform a major theatre pro- duction the weekend after Easter, and this year was no exception. Kismet, an old time favorite, captured the audience's attention not only with its flamboyant cos- tumes, but with its splended coordination of talent and stage design. The play itself was about kismet, commonly known as fate, which acted as the force that directed the lives of Marsinah I Mary Brown j, a poor peasant girl, and Caliph Uohn Ruessj, the richest man in Bagdad. Despite the tangling of various lovers, of powerful, yet jealous, men, and of near tragic events, this romantic comedy ends on a joyful note, resolving itself through one more twist of fate. A total of 112 people worked to make Kismet a success. Some Hfty-two cast members, thirty- eight behind-the-scenes, people, and twenty-two orches- tra players followed the 'directions of Mr. Andy Reagan and Rev. Edmund Dunn to produce another noteworthy musical for the history books of St. Ambrose College. Above: The charming Lalume fCaro1 Chouteauj gesticu- la tes to get her point across. Right: The fast talking Poet Uim Turillij tempts fa te and wins.
