Schwab Auditorium at 8:00 p.m.
Friday and Saturday and still
there's much to be accomplished.
Finishing touches must be added
to most of the technical aspects of
the production. Slight alterations
will have to be made in the dec
oration of the set, actors' costumes
and make-up will need perfecting,
and stage lighting brought to the
desired effect.
Next to the five actors and ac
