Hard Working Crew Backs Cast of Play 'Our Town'

On the opening night of any play, it is the actors who receive the praise and glory. But, just as behind every great man there is a woman, behind the actors in the Wawasee senior class production of Thornton Wilder’s "Our Town.” there await a corps of hard-working crews whose job it is to see that the “behind the scenes" tasks are performed smoothly. Much hard work and effort is made by these backstage crews to get a play in operation. Faculty director Mrs. Max Ellen Smith is assisted by three other faculty members: Philip K. Fawley will oversee the make-up committee, Terry Idenwill head the publicity and costume committees, and Joel Robbins will be in charge of props and staging. Donna Kreis is student director and Kathy Jones is the assistant stage manager. Costumes Perhaps the crew with the most difficult job is the costume committee. Barb Rush, Bobbie Tirschek, Karen Allen, Susi Baker, and Linda Shively are working on locating costumes typical of the 1901-1913 period. Many of the needed costumes have been located, but any persons in the community who have articles of clothing which they would lend or donate for use in the play should contact any committee member of Mr. Iden, publicity director, at the high school. The committee is having an especially hard time finding men s suits. Although “Our Town" is unique in the fact that it breaks away from traditional staging and uses only a few very important props. Such items as ladders, trellises, church pews, and a pulpit are needed. Becky Stutzman, Pat Mignery, Frank Stoffel, and Marsha Strickler comprise the props committee. In addition to the props, there must be some means of changing scenes, creating sound effects, and adding mood to scenes through appropriate lighting. The stage crew consists of Pat Spearman, Tom Fribley, Aarron Busch, and Dan Mosier. Lynn Moore will handle sound effects while sophomore Jeff Housouer and Junior Garry Hamilton will arrange lighting. Although these two boys are not seniors, their previous work and familiarity with stage lighting make them
