'MUSKET' PRODUCTION:
Students Will Star in 'Brigadoon'

Senior Night Tournaments, Skating
Post Petitions. WAA Pn

By NANCY STAMM
Actors and producers in the
MUSKET presentation of Briga-
doon have been energetically re-
hearsing.
As one member put it, "The
success of our show depends upon
our performance."
Cast in a lead role of Briga-
doon, Fiona, is Miss Pat Wright.
Miss Wright, a senior in the
School of Music, has performed in
Gilbert and Sullivan, Frosh Week-
end, Soph Scandals and Junior
Girls' Play.
Although her main activity for
the semester is Brigadoon, she
also finds time to listen to the
scores from Broadway shows and
to read English literature, especi-
ally Shakespeare. Miss Wright
feels that the music from Briga-
doon is "just out of this world."
Herb Start who plays the male
lead, Tommy, shares an enthusi-
asm for Brigadoon with Miss
Wright. Having majored in voice
at Calvin College, Start is here as
a graduate student in education.
His future plans include teaching
singing.
While at the University Start
has performed in Gilbert and Sul-
livan and Michigan, Singers.
Miss Wright and Start blend
their voices to "Almost Like Being
in Love," "The Heather on the*
Hill" and "From This Day On."
Fate is responsible for Tom Sex-
worth getting a part in Brigadoon.
Sexworth, who had an appoint-
ment to try out for the singing
chorus of the show, accidentally

tryouts were being held.
Accidentally Walked In
Before realizing his mistake h
was handed a script from which
he read several lines aloud. A few
days later Sexworth was informed
that he was to play the non-
singing male lead in Brigadoon.
Brigadoon is Sexworth's first big

acting part.

He has previously

participated in two fraternity
skits.
A member of the faculty, Prof
Haugh, is advising the actors
Prof. Haugh, a voice instructor in
the School of Music, assisted the
tryout chairman from a singer's
point of view when selecting the
cast for this year's show.
"I think its a top-flight show
and I thoroughly enjoyed the
movie," commented Prof. Haugh
"The music carries the plot; it is
woven in tightly with the script.'
The Prof. favors the idea of a
coed show as opposed to the now~
extinct Union Opera, which was
essentially an all-male farce. "The
show will tighten up. There wil
be a stricter discipline imposed
The students will do a better job
and most important, there will be
better voices at all points," he
said.
