A Dynamic Evening The day of the show arrives. You didn't get much sleep the night before. There is just too much excite- ment. The day drags on endlessly. All your time is spent either watching the clock or doing anything to keep your mind off of the show. You wait for six-thirty, when you can gather all of your costumes together and go to school. The time has arrived. The auditorium is filling with parents and friends. You nervously wait backstage, arranging and rearranging your clothes so they're just right. You're standing in the wings of the stage. The lights dim. The music begins. The theme is from Fame. Your turn. The spotlight is one. 'The show begins. The show you asks? An Evening With, by Mr. Robert Kelly and his speech team. The 1982 performance of An Even- ing With was a hard one to top because of the outstanding speech team it contained and the dynamic performance it gave. The practices for the show began in November during speech classes and ended the day before the show. The week before performance night is the hardest, commented a cast member. Practices started after school, and continued until late in the evening. Each one with his own lines to memorize was pushing to give it his best when the curtain opened. Despite the long, grueling hours of practice, and the contemplating of its worth, at times, the loud, clear sound of a standing ovation and the laughter throughout the show, should be a reminder to the members of the cast and to Kelly that the audience was more than happy to have spent an evening with them. ▼ Heather Krandell, and Roberta Toy, seniors, sing sincerely to the crowd how wonderful it is to be sisters.
