The Senior Class Play Little Nell” Ma Wilkens The Mother Pa Wilkens The Father Little Nell Wilkens -------------- The Heroine Hector Sky Scraper The Hero Carleton Bainbridge The Villian The Prompter ................ Always-Off-Stage The Stage Manager Always-Off-Stage The action took place in the Wilkens mortgaged farmstead. ACT I Morning ACT II Noon ACT III Night Little Nell is an old-fashioned Melodrama. It took place in the days of the Showboat on the Mississippi. You will recall reading in such novels as Edna Ferber’s “Showboat” how these old floating theaters traversed the entire course of the inland rivers, stopping wherever a wharf afforded an opportunity to folk and wherever dwellers along the banks afforded an audience for their plays. You will recall also how the audience joined whole-heartedly into the spirit of the show, applauding the valiant hero and winsome heroine, and hissing the evil plotting of the villian. Musical numbers by members of the Senior class served as entertainment be- tween acts. Gloria Kallhoff Fred Cox Ruthe Johnston John Kessler Don Main John Mills Bill Coker 10
