nix Too Frequent, The Happen-
ing, and Egad, What a Cad. \
TTie roles for A Phoenix Too'
Frequent are Dinanxerie, Doto,
and Tegeus to be played by
CeCe Hart, Donna Rhodes and
Tommy Paterson, respectively.

seven parts. Those roles and
and the actors are: Constant
Hope (Linda Bruner); Manly
Rash (Les Mezger); Augustus
(Dee Phillips); Ursula (Barbara,
Casey); Fowler (Sarah Wright)
Bertram (Jacky Walker) and
Milly Smith (Susan Bingam).
There will be an old - fashioned
Oleo Act that will precede this
play. The members of the act.
are: Karen Jameson, Connie
Haima, and Les Mezger.
There will be two narrators
for The Happening, Les Mezger
and Merrill Wenk. The cast will
consist of Sheila Lohrman as
Eve, Karen Jameson as Cor-
day, Steve Black as Able, and
Tom, Patterson as iHamlet. Jack-
ey Walker will play the Serpent

Caesar. Two flappers will be
Mary Little and Carol Rhoades.
A hippie will be portrayed by
Chuck Bass. CeCe Hart will

The" Happening was written
and will be directed by Grant
Phifer. He will be assisted by
Linda Lilley. Egad, What a
Cad will be directed by Wayne
Toone, an instructor in the
speech department and assist-
; ed by C. D, James. Merrill
Wenk, 'president of the Players,
assisted by Mac Williams, will
direct A Phoenix Too Frequent.
The technical director is Paul
day and the stage manager is
Steve Black, there are still
openings for the business and
publicity manager and house
manager.
A Phoenix Too Frequent is a
verse comedy dealing with
death. Egad, What a Cad is a
melodrama which carries
with it the audience participa-
tion of hssing the villain and
cheering the hero. The Happen-
ing is something new for Tar-
leton. Grant Phifer indicates
that it is "an alegory of the
flower of peace and how' it
blossomed." The tiappening will
also entail audience reaction to
the activity on stage.
Toone, .supervising director
or the productions, summariz-
ed the intent and purpose of the
trio of plays: "Our spring work-
shop productions have been se-
lected to give opportunities for
experience in. nseveral types of
presentations rather than nar-
rowing our selections to one
particular type of dramatic
literature. The emphasis of the
evening will be on a humorous
treatment of several basic
themes of lite. This type of
presentation makes a more
lasting effect on the modern
mind than more serious treat-
ments do. This promises to be
a great experience for the
audience and the Players, too."
