The child-like romantics between Emile DeBeque and nurse Nellie Forbush, always good for a giggle during rehersal, became more sensitive and less humorous. The stage crew finally learned how to move the sets quietly and keep from being picked up by the microphones. Even the anticipation of parties after every show failed to dampen the produc- tion. Each performance was like opening night, and judging by audience reaction, opening night was excellent. Six weeks ofwhat must have seemed hopeless rehearsals had somehow bound sixty-odd people into a unified organization that transformed an unbearbly corny play into something beauti- ful. It caught, as some people noted, the true feeling of South Pacific. Some of the audience even cried. In charge of the organiZationwasMr. Ron Childers, direc- tor, odd-job doer, and occasional smiler, Mr. Alan Lund and Mrs. Margaret Lieberg, musical directors: Laurie Farber, student director and worrierg Steve Burton, stage manager and janitor: and Diana Sullivan, lighting technician. The actors that these people were in charge of included: Sharon Thompson and Leslie Baker as Nellie Forbushg Bob Julien and Randy Olsen as Emile DeBequeg Jeff Sunde and Mike Bacigalupi as Lt. Cable, Mary Chesterman and Kathy Allen as Bloody Mary: Marc Shulman as Luther Billisg and Randy Ogan as Capt. Brackett.
