PRODUCTIONS IN RETROSPECT:
Co-ed Shows Prove Success on Campus
By SUE RAUNHEIM
What makes a good co-ed
show?
This past semester has been
one of successful innovations such
as Soph Show and Musket, both
co-ed presentataions.
These organizations had differ-
ent objectives in mind and feel
that they achieved their goals.
According to publicity manager
Robert Arnove, "Soph Show was
a success even before the initial
performance." The sophomores
had many objectives when they
attempted the first co-ed class
production,
They wanted to rouse class
spirit, offer students a chance to
hold responsible positions and to
achieve successful co-educational
cooperation on a class project.
Spirit Evident
Throughout the rehearsals, the
sophomores' spirit was always evi-
dent. Even the students who were
just working behind the foot-
lights were anxious to do all they
could to help make the show a
success. The coeds and men put
long hours and hard work into
their show.
Hank Kerr, general co-chair-
man, felt that he ''enjoyed work-
ing on the show because everyone
was so willing to contribute."
One of the purposes of Soph
Show was to provide a back-i
ground of experience and respon-;
sibility for the students so they;
could go on to other projects.
Large Cast+
Many comments were made
I concerning the large numbers in
the cast, but the sophomores felt
that by limiting the show to a
select few, they would be limiting3
the opportunities for many other
interested students who wished tol
participate.,
According to Arnove, "Director
Ted Heusel was more than a di-+
rector - he was a friend." Heus-+
el put in more time and effort
than was required of him and he
was always enthusiastic and will-
ing to give useful suggestions.
The sophomores felt that Heus-
el was truly interested in the suc-
cess of their show and immedi-
ately after the production was;
held, they voted to obtain his
services for next year's show.
Financially Successful
Financially the show was a suc-
cess. It played to two full houses
so that all overhead expenses were
paid.
Soph Show was also successful
in the sense of audience enjoy-
ment. The songs from "Good
News" were given hearty applause.
The first co-ed show to be pre-
sented on the University campus
was Soph Show. There was no
pre-existing core of people to
work with, no previous co-educa-
tional show to follow - no glory
involved. The students accom-

plished what they did because of
hard work and enthusiasm.
Old "Union Opera"
Musket show was also a new
production which grew out of the
annual Union Opera. The Union
and last year's executive commit-
tee of Union Opera voted to add
coeds to the show in order to bet-I
ter satisfy the student audiences.
Musket was planned with threeI
objectives. Most important, the,
organization wanted to present
good entertainment and let the
audience have a good time. Mus-
ket offered an opportunity to stu-I
dents majoring in music, dance
and theater to present their tal-
ent in a challenging way.
The co-ed production plans to'
have road shows in the near fu-
ture which they hope will add to
the presige of the University.
Want Original Script
The executive committee ac-
cording to Fred Steingold, iro-
motions, tried to use student per-
sonnel in all aspects of the show.
They would like to present an ori-
ginal script next year written by
students if a good one is offered.
Since this was the first Musket
opened and reviews were printed,1
the executive committee and ac-
tors could be seen grinning from
ear to ear."
Steingold commented that the
co-ed show had the advantage of
dealing with more serious prob-
lems, love scenes could be per-
formed effectively and the show
did not have to be farcial as in
the days when the show was com-
pletely male.
Dropped Into Office
For a month and a half after
the show closed, actors and direc-
tors of Musket dropped into the
Musket office to "hang around."
"Everyone felt so close to the
show that it actually became a
part of them. Some students even
suggested putting on another
show in the spring," remarked
Steingold.
During opening night intermis-
sion, two members of last year's
Union Opera could be heard com-
menting to each other, "It's a
good show but it's too profession-
al." The Musket core regarded
this as a backhand compliment.
They feel they satisfied the stu-
dents and offered good enter-
tainment.

in the League will close Thursday,
