The same characteristics that comprise not , only the cast and crew of our +. production but also the American we repirit.” '.%,' The comedy finds a pretty girl “.».of 22 who happens to be the ", present Duchess Gloriana (Brooke Ke «*Posatko), sovereign of a mouse of »;:a country in the Alps founded “.Z:centuries ago by a roving band of -<+'English bowmen. With the support of her Privy “+*.Council, Count Mountjoy (Patrick «;*:DePalma) and David Benter (Rob _.i*Weaver), she devises a plan. ) @ Gloriana’s unique solution to the “.#.near bankruptcy of her tiny do- «,+.main is to declare war on the *.*United States! “%.' There's some method to her madness, however, for her study of recent history suggests that the surest way to wealth today is to lose a war with the United States, for our country’s odd reaction is to pour aid, relief and rehabilita- tion on the vanquished. When the “Declaration” is considered a prank by the president of the United States (Jeff Offshack) and Secretary of State (Amber Posatkol, Gloriana decides to escalate. Tully Bascom, (Nathan Bendik) presently in charge of the bowmen, is to launch an attack so they can surrender and reap the rewards. Serious yet simple-minded Bascom, however, changes the course of history by defeating the United States. Jon Pineno, co-director, sees the play as a positive alternative for students to express their cre- ativity. “The students have worked very hard since January. I am now starting to see the fruits of our labor. The students have allowed themselves to become one with their characters and each of them has contributed a little of themselves to their role. Their uniqueness and persona is what makes the theatre a great tool for self-expression." The Lake-Lehman Theatre En- semble will present The Mouse That Roared at the high school auditorium Thurs., March 20, Fri., March 21, and Sat., March 22, with a curtain at 7:30 p.m. There will also be a performance on Sun., March 23, with a 3 p.m. curtain.
