Amahl, Marian Riddell, is shown talking with the three kings - King Kasper, Charles Adams: King Balt- hazar, Lerry Zehringg and King Mel- choir, Jim Fleet. Looking on is the page, Joe Pepin. Amahl trys to tell his scep- ticalmother, Annette Lee, he has seen the bright star in Activities cc I Amahl and the Night Visitorsi' Amahl and the Night Visitors, a one act operetta by Carlo Menotti, was presented by the opera workshop and the a cappella choir, December 12 and 14. The story, of religious nature, is about a crippled boy, A1 mahl, and his widowed mother. Amahl always has a hard time convincing his mother of some of the strange things he sees, and the time he sees a large star in the eastern sky is no excep- tion. Hfhen three kings appear at the door seeking rest and shelter, Amahl's mother is taken aback and readily welcomes them into her home. However, she has nothing in the house to offer- them so she sends Amahl to find the other shepherds and ask them to bring whatever they can offer their special guests. The kings explain their mission in seeking out the Messiah, and everyone rejoices the new-born savior. The setting is concentrated in the house of Amahl and is of simple but effective nature. The costumes of the shepherds contrast with the rich. lavishly decorated robes of the kings. the eastern sky. The shepherds offer their simple gifts to the kings who tell of their journey to find the Messiah.
