SCP musical touches ‘soul ’ of stage
by DAN DILLO N
The uppity little Daddy s-girl who wants to
turn 'her' theater into a disco—or anything
that makes money—doesn't have much in
common with the young lady who will play
her in the Sandy Community Players' upcom
ing production. I've Got Rhythm "
"The snotty personality she has on stage is
not her at a ll,’ promised Bob Anderson, the
foil in M ary Russell's attempt to change the
old theater that Daddy bought for her.
The two entertainers, it seems, have a
mutual admiration society at work.
“ I love working with him ," added Russell,
nodding at Anderson
The two will be called on to carry a story
l:ne through 60 Broadway show tunes in the
musical revue that opens with a special Mt.
Hood Hospice benefit performance next
Thursday, July 1.
“ We re putting her in the very middle of the
soul of American musical stage.** Anderson
said As he tells her in the production,
scripted by Mark Kuntz and Katie Ten Eyck,
"You know, if you let it, we think it will cap
ture you "
Being captured by musical theater isn’t ex
actly what's on Russell’s mind when she a r
rives at the theater with her grandiose
schemes of turning it into something she con
aiders more profitable than a launching pad
for the music of Gershwin and Sondheim
"She’s coming to raise hell," Anderson
stated flatly.
Indeed, as the story goes, Russell’s father
has purchased the theater for his daughter
and it’s hers to do with as she pleases What
pleases her is "something modem that will
make money," Russell said.
Anderson plays a stagehand readying for
the night's performance. He tries to convince
the upstart that there's fun in musical
theater
Through two hours of show, she’s finally
convinced that maybe there is some value to
it after all. She gradually gets involved with
the 11 member musical cast, who knew she
was coming all along and schemed to win her
over In the end, as everyone’s leaving, she
wonders if that’s all there is.
Lest the wrong impression be given,
however, the music is the star of the show
"The musical performance is the main
thing," Anderson said
"We re just kind of giving a story to it,”
Russell pointed out
Their story ties together more than 60 years

Apology to Stan Skoko
During the last month of the
Democratic Primary election for
Clackamas County Commissioner,
election ads and two bulk mailings
were sent out by my election commit
tee. I deeply regret that certain
aspects of Mr. Skoko s voting record
and participation on the Board were
depicted and presented in a manner
which may not have been fair.
It was not our intention to depict
Mr. Skoko as anything less than a con
scientious and dedicated Clackamas
County Commissioner. Mr. Skoko has
served the best interests of this coun
ty, as he has seen them, for almost 20
years.
I retract any of our statements that
unfairly presented Mr. Skokos record
and publicly apologize to him for any
election materials which suggested he
was not a dedicated and honorable
Commissioner whom I respect as a
person.
