Seniors See Shakespeare

    Monday March 1, 1993 twenty-five seniors, along with sponsors Mrs. Johnson and Mrs. McCarville, traveled to Mount Marty to view As You Like It. The National Players of Washington D.C. performed the Shakespearean plan.
    "As You Like It" is the story of two family disputes that intertwine. The first family consists of Duke Frederick, his daughter Celia, his brother Duke Senior, and his niece Rosalind. dike Frederick banishes his brother Duke Senior to the Forest of Arden but allowed his daughter it remain in the court..
    Oliver and Orlando are brothers of the second family. Oliver deprived Orlando of his rightful inheritance and forces him to live a life of poverty.
    Rosalind and Orlando meet at a wrestling match where Orlando defeats Duke Frederick the champion. After hinting of her love for Orlando, Rosalind is also banished from the court because of her influence over Celia. So the two girls set out for the Forest of Arden with Rosalind disguised as a young man named Gamymede and Celia as his sister. Also embarked on  journey to the Forest of Arden is Orlando in search of a new home.
    After arriving in the forest, Oliver falls in love with Celia at first sight, and Orlando arranges for their wedding the next day. Four couples are married on the morrow, and the Duke Senior promises to share his good fortune.
    The set for this drama was a versatile curtain directed by ropes to show scene changes, hand props used were a trunk, a gong, and paper. The lighting also added the the scene changes. They used two basic colors, silver and blue. The day was toped off with lunch at Hardee's and a jolly bus ride home.
