Sherry has a difficult part.
She plays a split personality..
One personality is Lisa, a girl
who is about four years old
who skips around and speaks
in rhyme aid repetition. The
other is Muriel, a quiet girl
of fourteen who doesn’t
speak. Sherry said it was
"fun" playing the part of
Lisa, but strange.
The other characters give
great color to the play,
making it humorous and
intriguing. Carlos (David
Martino) plays a rude Puerto
Rican which makes \ the play
very funny. Kate (Nina Free-
man) plays a flirtatious girl
who can only think of love.
The whole cast fits their
parts really well.
In putting on a play many
problems face director, Suellen
i Stigler, and one of them
is last minute casting. The
part of Mrs. Clemen (David’s
mother) was given to Danette
Martin. Miss 'Stigler- stated
"the little old lady is the
least of my worries."
Assistinn Miss .'Stialer- i<?
While Miss Stigler; directs,
Kim criticizes little things.
Kirn said,"if5 the little things
that are important.”
Members of the cast oj "David
and Lisa” prepare for their
David and Lisa, portrayed by Jim Coody and Sherry Hoy,
practice insanity.
