Feature Editor Fiddler on the Roof, the Clacka mas Drama Department’s fall pro duction, has been canceled. According to David Smith-En glish; theater director and instruc tor, too few individuals auditioned to adequately cast the play. “It just didn’t happen,” said Smith-English. Keeping his chin up, Smith-En glish would like to thank Lonnie Cline, choir director, and Gary Nelson, music department chair, for their time and preparation devoted to a play that will not go on. In place of Fiddler, Smith-En- glish will produce Henrik Ibsen’s 1879 play, Doll House. He de scribes the play as “early feminist; a play which explores the role that women have been assigned in soci ety.” “When this play was first pro duced,” Smith-English added to his commentary, “it created riots.” In 1879, the term “women’s rights” wasn’t even in existence. Ibsen was the first to touch the topic, yet in response he explained: “I have been more the poet and less the social philosopher. My task,” Ibsen wrote in commentary, “has been the description of humanity.” Auditions for Doll House were held last Tuesday, and according to Smith-English, the show will go on. Inherit the Wind will be the pro duction for winter term. It is a play “set around the [Scopes] Mon key Trial,” said Smith-English. The well known conflict is labeled a “courtroom drama,” which has been a very popular and entertain ing style of theater. Originally, Fiddler to be pro duced Spring Term, but instead The Frogs by Aristophanes will run. Though the cancellation of Fiddler has disappointed many, performing The Frogs in its place is “a good idea,” said Strauss, assistant direc tor to Smith-English, explaining that after the heavy subjects dealt with in Doll House and Inherit the Wind, The Frogs will be “an upbeat way to end the season.” It's your JDIC j decision of the school year.
