Morrell's play is Through
Blind Eyes and is the tale of a
woman who has lost some of
her perspective and the man
who offers her some of his.
“I wrote it last summer
and I always wanted to create
a character that had lost one
of their senses. I picked that
character and then tried to
fi gure out how his situation
could help someone else,”
Morell said.
deMeurers and Morrell
chose each other's play to direct
after a blind reading.
“I'm just trying to take her
work and make it my own
while being respectful to what
she wrote,” deMeurers said.
Morrell found an instant
connection in The Little Things.
“I thought it was really
funny and satirical. It was a play
I could understand because
of the confl icts happening,”
Morrell said.
Sophomore
Abrianna
Feinauer's inspiration came at
2 a.m. with a deadline looming
and can be summed up in two
words: undead love.
“It starts out with a
zombie named Howard and
his adventures fi nding love
in a modern world. There's
troublesome girls, dating apps
and oblivious friends who don't
understand that he's a zombie,”
Feinauer said.
The resulting play is titled
Howard vs. Love and is directed
by Cameron Engle. Feinauer
just completed her fi rst-ever
creative writing class and she
never quite expected to be
picked for the festival.
“It was crazy, it was so
exciting because every part of
that play has a part of me in it,”
she said.
If Feinauer was shooting for
comedy, junior Raina Hickman
ran in the opposite direction
with Break Free directed by
Gloria White.
“It starts out with the
worst moment of an abusive
relationship and then rewinds
to earlier in the relationship
showing how it got to that
point,” Hickman said.
Her cast of characters
includes the families of both
the victim and the abuser in an
attempt to show all sides. While
it’s a heavy topic, she hopes the
audience connects with the
emotional center.
“I hope that people don't
relate to it but that they fi nd it
emotional,” Hickman said.
Senior Jaida Watson's Ethan
and Anna Travel Through the
Universe is a delightful mouthful
and follows the adventures of
two friends in their quest to
defeat the evil Dr. Obsidian.
“Part of the play takes place
in their imaginations, but
they end up with a real world
problem that they have to deal
with,” Watson said.
As with Feinauer, the muse
arrived in the heat of the
moment.
“I was sitting in class and
I was one of the only people
without an outline done. I
plugged my headphones in and
wrote it out in that moment,”
Watson said.
Ethan and Anna is directed by
Elise LeDuc.
McNary
alum
David
Henderson wrote his play,
Quester's Delight, when he was
still a senior. It's directed by
Osvaldo Torres.
“It's a romance-comedy-
tragedy,” Henderson said. “It's
about two characters who come
together to play a video game,
but they are fi ghting in real life
over a girl and giving each other
advice about what they should
do.”
When Henderson found
out his work had been selected
for the festival via e-mail he
decided it was best to just walk
away from the computer for a
while. He's excited now.
“I'm excited to see what the
audience thinks about it. I'm
interested to see when they
laugh and how they react to
it,” he said. “This is something
I created and now they are
taking it a step further to make
something else out of it.”
Hoag had a loaded schedule
already when she signed up to
take playwriting last fall. She
was one of two writers to have
a play produced for last year's
One Act Festival. Celt drama
department director Dallas
Myers tasked her with writing
a comedy after a more serious
piece last year. The result is
Aimee's Adventure directed by
Dorothy Woolford.
“It's about a little girl who
goes to bed and fi nds her mom
is gone. From that point on her
stuffed animals come to life and
it's all about her journey to go
and fi nd her mom,” she said. “ I
didn't want to go for romantic
love I wanted it to be like little
kid love.”
She's also part of a technical
theater class this semester.
“I'm loving everything that's
going into it. I'm trying really
hard not to act excited because
I don't want her to do things
because I like them, but it's hard
because I love everything going
into it,” Hoag said.
Utah Avenue South in Seattle,
which is the corporate address
for Starbucks. The work is de-
scribed as tenant improvement
for Starbucks worth $187,000.
The topic was also brought
up last week on the Keizer, OR
Facebook page. Keizer City
Councilor Marlene Parsons re-
sponded to a query that Star-
bucks is indeed moving to the
new location.
“The new owners of
Schoolhouse Square are re-
modeling and putting in new
tenants,” Parsons wrote on Feb.
28. “Starbucks chose to move.
They want a drive through.
The owners decided to sell. It
will put new construction into
an old area. It's a win-win for
Keizer.”
STARBUCKS,

building and construction of
a new building shell was listed
for 4943 River Road. The
valuation was listed as $233,163
for a 1,850 square foot building.
A second permit for the ad-
dress was submitted to the city
on Jan. 15 from Steve Clen-
daniel of Seattle, affi liated with
architecture and planning fi rm
KDW Salas O'Brien. On that
permit, the site owner is list-
ed as Krosman Inc., which is
what Marion County records
for the property show as well.
A site contact number on the
application traces back to 2401
demands for any event, small
to large.”
The announcement is just
the latest recent change at
Schoolhouse Square, which
was bought by Washington-
based Bloch Properties in
December. A new BFit gym
is coming (see pg. A3), next to
the Anytime Fitness that closed
at the end of January. Longtime
State Farm agent George
Goesch turned his business
over to Scott Ayres at the end
of 2015, while Starbucks is
moving just down River Road.
HERO,

“This community has
embraced our family and our
businesses, Big Town Hero
and K's Catering,” White
said. “We are excited to grow
our combined expertise and
catering services with all the
same Big Town Hero soup and
sandwich favorites, but also a
wide variety of menu options
to exceed everyone's catering
