Stage lights! House lights! Curtain! And audiences are
treated to another production by the Idaho drama department.
Under the direction of Professor Jean Collette,
opportunity is provided for all students to learn drama
and stage techniques, both in formal classes and by
working on the numerous plays.
Plays with large casts set the keynote for this year's
dramatic offerings. A Western frontier play, a French
fantasy and a Chinese play were the main features.
Advanced play production classes gave students the
chance to direct a wide variety of studio productions.
The success of a show depends to a large extent upon
the costuming and technical aspects. Marion Feather·
stone's direction in the designing and making of cos·
tumes and Mr. Kern's striking set designs added the
final touches to create a successful season for the Idaho
drama department.
