The actors were chosen tor their singing ability as much as their acting ability. Having no dialogue, the play was quite ditterent from the plays done in the past. Ter- ry Kane, who had been in pre- vious plays, explained, l'Since there wasn't any dialogue, there also weren't any breaks between songs. We were con- stantly running around, and it took a lot out ot us. Another aspect ot the play was the choir's singing and ap- pearing through cloud open- ings and other pieces of sce- nery. The set was designed to be mobile, with the stage crew working throughout the pro- duction. Despite the chaos and pan- demonium ot having titty-eight people on and oft stage at var- ious times, the play ran smoothly and never tailed to provide non-stop entertain- ment. 'rw 'Q A --.' ,
