Once upon Once upon a time, at the edge of a large for- est. there lived a poor woodcutter with his wlte and two children, Hansel and Gretel. One day, atter accidently spilling all the milk sup per, the stepmother sent the children into the forest to pick strawberries. Going deeper and deeper into the woods, they soon became lost. As darkness tell, they were calmed by the gentle Sandman. and watched over by fourteen angels and awakened the next morning by the beautiful Dew Fairy. Continuing thelr journey they found a delectable ginger- bread cottage. To their horror, they dlscovered the house belonged to the evil wltch, Rosina Dainty-Tooth, who fattened up lit- tle children and ate them for supper. Hansel and GreteI-cleverly toiled the witch's plan. The spell was broken. The other children came back to life. Hansel and Gretel, being joined by thelr parents. of course lived happily ever after. A Time . .. Opera Hansel and Gretel recreated my childhood dreams vividly on stage . . . beautiful. Theatregoer Ballet was under the dlrectlon of Kim Fass. All are Vlterbo students. Dlrector for the production was Terry L. Flatt; the conductor. Earle Gregory; and the productlon deslgn and technical dlrectlon, Sharl Taylor. Vlferbo's really outdone Itself this time! Enchanting. Theatregoer brings fairy tale to life Somewhere In the life of every individual he or , she has had a favorite fairy tale. Think awhile . was It Cinderella, Rumpelstiltskin. Sleeping Beauty or maybe Hansel and Gretel? The department of music at Viterbo College pre sented a musical version at the story from the Brothers Grimm entitled Hansel and Gretel on March 29 through April 2. The children's chorus adds a time- less Iiavor to this fairy tale for all ages. Rosina Dainty-tooth Gd McNuItyt tempts Hansel TLisa Johnsom wlth tantlllzlng morsel ot food. The music for this production was done by Engiebert Humperdinck. No, not the pop singer of today. Humperdlnck studied and worked un der the great German composer. Wagner. In 1893 Humperdlnck wrote his first opera Hansel and Gretel. Assisted by his sister Adelheid Wette: who wrote the libretto. Fashioned after the fairy tale from the Brothers Grimm, this was to be Humperdlnck's greatest opera success. An unusual feature at this production at Hansel Und Gretel was that the lead roles were alternat- lng performers. This situation created some diverse and tasci- nating results, noted Terry Flatt, director and as slstant professor of music at Viterbo College. Flatt stated. the result allowed us to use both a tenior, Ed McNuIty. and a mezzo soprano. Deb Whltrock, to portray the witch. In the professional world, this Is done both ways, but usually only one way at a time. We were able to use both. which Is very exciting. Another unique aspect of the production was that traditionally the roles of Hansel and Gretei are performed by women. This Is not unique In that Gretel is a boy. In Viterbo's performance the Hansel was performed by Lisa Johnson and Lisa Manning; Gretel by Kerry Sullivan and Kath leen Johnson. Another Interesting element of the production was Its student Involvement in the technical posi- tions. Michael Ranscht designed the lighting and the Children's chorus was directed by Lisa Smetana. Circus backdrop puts J.B. in Sara. Lesley Harris. Above: God. Phllllp Ostrem and Satan, Robert Hoyt. Right: Monica Wilson and Paula Julian Big top. .. As the big top came to life In the Black Box Theatre May 2-6, audiences were thrilled and chilled with the glamoured reality of spiritual dilemma faced by mod ern-day Job in Archibald Macieish's J.B. The circus arena setting for J.B. allowed for the displays of tal- ent by the troupe of performers recognized as the Vlterbo College Theatre department. The tree-ring cir- cus designed by Scott Romane proved effective In portraying man's struggle between the higher forces of God and the lesser forces of Satin. Through the par- trayed human loss and agony of J.B. and his eventual restoration, the audience was enlightened to man's daily spiritual struggle to find love and acceptance In a world of adversaries. The story of J.B.. which has been awarded the Pulitzer Prize tor Literature, addresses the questions why do we sutier? . Why Is there punishment? , and What is justlce? . Because at its deeply probing philosophical theme, J.B. proves to be a theatrical challenge for any group of actors, directors, and audience. Viterba combined superb acting and Interpretation with cre atlve directing to succeed in their endeavor to create a tlne dramatic experience. Although this production was set In a circus mode. It was much more than just bright colors and gaudy attempts at human success. As the audience looked on with silent 000's and iiAhh's . the thrill and suspense of real human experience was symbolically recreated in the hub of G three-ring circus. 31$3$$39 J Above: Robert Hoyt captures the mood of The Fallen Angel Satan In the domaln of the Black Box. 7M7 a Mom: The Destructlon Chlldren; Tro $ . cy Cvala.

Bright Star . n - Ferronte and Teicher In the Viterbo spirit of sharing, the Bright Star Season of 1983 and 1984 brought a variety of drama, comedy, and music to the people of the La Crosse area. Della Reese brought Blues in the Night to open the Bright Star Season. The exhilarating renditions of blues songs from the '20's and 30's combined with Miss Reese's unique jazz- blues sound recreated Chicago's Hey Day's upon the Main Theatre stage. From jazz, Viterbo went to Shakespeare. Lee Meriwether, Roy Dotrice and Anthony Zerbe brought Othello, Iago, Brutus, Cassius. Angelo, Kate and Juliet to lite. Country Matters: Se- lected Seductions from Shakespeare proved to be very popular here at Viterbo. Della Reese i. Lee Merlwether Anthony Zerbe H2 Shining brighter than ever! Ferrante and Teicher brought music and fun along with their grande pi anos to the main stage. Selections from Bach to Bacharach and the Beatles highlighted their return to Viterbo. In November, Fred Waring, the Dean of American Popular Music, brought his New Pennsylvanians to La Crosse. A splashy potpourri of song and dance featuring favorite old and new proved a critic right when he said, Waring blend is magic still. Mame was the Viterbo theatre department's first contribution to the Main Stage. The song and dance blockbuster based on Patrick Dennis' novel was a big hit. We think you're just sensational, Mame! See pic- tures from the show on pages 16 and 17. Isaac Stern's grammy award winning show graced the Main Stage with music by Beethoven, Schubert and Brahms, Berstein and Schuman. He has devoted his life to music and is a violin virtuoso with an unexplaina ble natural musical force. Guthrie Theatre The Oakland Ballet brought The Crystal Slipper to La Crosse in March. Based on the music of Bohuslav Martinu, the ballet is known for its distinctive style and individuality of its dancers. Also appearing in March was Hansel and Gretal. See pages 116-117. The Guthrie troupe returned in April with the hilarious comedy, The Importance of Being Earnest. The age-old theme of mistak- en identities makes this witty farce a classic. Winding up the Bright Star Season was the Saint Paul Chamber Or- chestra. Under the direction of Pinchas Zukerman. the orchestra re turned for their fourth time at Viterbo. They provided a sophisticat- ed finale to a wonderfully entertaining Bright Star Season at the Viterbo College Fine Arts Center.

The edltors would appreclate your patronage of the establlshments who purchased ads In thls yearbook. We understand that tlmes are hard and that most buslnesses are overbudget on advertlstng. But we were still turned down for ads from all of the larger buslnesses In the mall because It was to much to both er with small tlmers like our yearbook. The polnt was to support lm prlnts and not to worry about how much money that one ad would brlng back to the store. One of the buslnesses that dld buy an ad was already over budget but stlll thought Imprints was a good cause to support. Please shop at these places of buslness. They feel that Vlterbo ls worthwhile. Let's show them that we feel the same way about them. Rose Hammes Buslness Manager ..
