Players Present
'The Rainmaker
For a stormy and chilly night, "The Rainmaker" entwined
its audience in the personal problems of a western family
with great ease.
Although the first act is pathetically slow
the audience in a family's struggle of draught
cattle and the crisis of an unwed
young girl, it is saved by one
factor. The factor—first semester
Derek Swire, who plays the role
of a teen-age boy in. the family
to perfection.
Swire is completely at home on
the stage, and captures the audi
ence from the start. Each line,
although a few are fumbled, is
that of any 16 year old boy in
love with "Snookie" and inno
centy concerned about his sister.
_ _
Take Role Seriously
Patricia Doll, another new
comer to Players, takes the lead
role of the "little plain glrl" al
most too seriously. Her lines, al
though never fumbled, are strain
ed with her obvious accent. But,
she does make her point—she is
gawky and plain, but gives her
romantic homespun philosophy
with utmost sincerity. In one eve
ning she goes from bitter resig
nation of being ah old maid to
falling in love with a convict—
who was rather a jolly -sort.
Haas Brings Relief
Emil Haas, as this starry-eyed
thief, brings a welcome relief to
the serious, all-too-practical Cur
ry family. With verbal flourish
he turns father and three Curry
children to inner turmoil, and
convincingly makes them look to
the stars for dreams.
Big brother Noah Curry, played
by Gerald Denisof, is no let down
to the other characters. He %car
ries his stern, pesimistic, practi
cal point-of-view with dead
seriousness.
Another, almost of the same
kind, and doing equally as well,
is William Taylor, as the Sher
iffs deputy, who too is forced
to face 'himself, by this same
twist of family problems.
'Dad' Does Part
Even the old, over-worked Dad,
played by William Sample, does
his part to meet expectations of
the typical dad of any hard
toiling western' family faced with
draughts and unwed daughters.
If the plot resembles a high
quality Saturday night soap
opera, its story complicated with
family crisis, it is brought out of
the ordinary class by an excel- 1
lently picked and groomed cast.
Only one - character fell below
standards with the rest—Ford
Minsker, as ,the sheriff. But' his
part was small, and can be over
looked.
It is puviling why a cast which
as a whole does well in sincerity
of character, and in which a few
do so outstandingly, gets off to a
slow start. Perhaps friends come
