‘StageCenter’
Plans Plays
By KAY SLOWEY
“This is the first time Stage
Center has ever had two com
pletely different plays in re
hearsal at the same time,” re
marked Stu Sutherland, executive
producer of “East Lynne” and
“Pure as the Driven Snow.”
The adult cast play, “East
Lynn,” is an original melodra
matic tear-jerker, under the direc
tion of Dr. Lee Martin, assisted
by Lee S. Martin, he said.
“This play involves a woman,
Lady Isabell (Pattalee Ford) who
soft-talked into leaving her
home by one of the vilest villians
(Warner Dahlberg) to ever stalk
a stage ... to return once more
in the last moments,” Sutherland
commented.
Other cast members include
Steve Prescott, Jean Lloyd,
Marion Wagoman, Wanda Daisa,
Jesse Minkert, Harry Gooding,
and Liz Minkert.
“Pure As the Driven Snow,”
the youth-cast play, is being
directed by Jeanne Smith, with
Mrs. Lee Chlemic assisting, and
Lee Powell, student directing.
“While ‘East Lynne’ is a drama,
‘Pure As the Driven Snow’ is a
farce melodrama. It portrays the
wacky activities of an oddly
assorted group of characters who
meet in a New England inn. The
plot thickens as a terrible villian
(Jon Hancock) tries his darndest
to win the heroine (Susan Cart
wright) only to be foiled by the
hero (Richard Miller),” Suther
land said.
Cast members for this produc
tion include Dick Taylor, Kathy
Lofgren, Craig Anderson, Kay
Slowey, Kim Diebel, Cora Simon,
Debbie Lloyd and Becky Upham.
Understudies include Kathy
Lloyd, Joe Salmons, Trudie Klein,
Frances Martin, Kerry Kacoby,
Debbie Klein and Diane .Schu
macher.
“The situation of having two
plays going on at one time has
created several problems, two of
which are scheduling rehearsals
and costuming,” reported Mr.
Sutherland.
Costume mistresses Wanda
Daisa, Jean Lloyd, Barb Bomn-
skie and Jane Pretzer had to
appeal to the public when they
found there just were not enough
costumes of the right style avail
able.
' Scheduling problems arose
when it was remembered that
there was only one stage, but
two plays to practice. Because of
this productions had to take
turns, with one using the stage
while the other used either a
smaller room or the porch.
Productions will be held in the
new StageCenter Theatre (Old
Country Club).
"East Lynne” performances
will be July 4, 5, 6, 19, 20 with
an 8 p.m. curtain, and July 7 and
21 wtih curtain at 3 p.m.
“Pure As the Driven Snow” will
come to life July 10, 11, 12, 13,
26, 27, curtain time 8 p.m., and
July 28, curtain at 3 p.m.
Entertainment, coordinated by
David and Dianna Landmann,
will highlight intermissions, Suth
erland stated.
Tickets can be purchased from
any StageCenter members at $1.
“StageCenter guarantees fun
for the whole family,” summed
up Sutherland.
