Ladies: Play promises laughs
Continued from
Page 18A
“I’m trying to get $3
million. That’s very seri-
ous business. It’s not re-
ally a laughing matter,”
Disney said.
For that reason, he’s
the only one who is sus-
picious of Max and
Steve.
Meanwhile Meg,
learning of the pair’s
acting background,
b e c o m e s e n a m o re d
with her mysterious
cousins.
“She’s lively, vivacious
and just loves theater,”
Bucher said of her char-
acter. “She just wants to
get out of her small town
and do something really
big.”
But before that can
happen, there is the
matter of her upcoming
marriage to Duncan,
which is complicated by
her increasing interest
in Leo as Max.
As for Parnell and
M o n r o e ’s t u r n a s
women, well, you’ll just
have to see the play.
“It’s very outrageous,
easily the most outra-
geous part of the whole
thing,” Disney said.
“The funny part though
is that nobody can tell
that they are guys. We
all fall for it, which is
ridiculous because they
look nothing like
women. Although, their
legs look really nice in
their heels.”
Energy: Soccket balls
Continued from 17A
“We thought it was a cool idea to
play a game to get electricity,” Pe-
terson-Garcia said of the balls. “And
a fun way to be able to turn on the
light. (We) made a plan and per-
suaded and got donations to these
people who don’t have electricity.”
Students in Ward’s fourth-grade
class at MES said they were not ac-
cepting anything but coins in their
fundraiser.
“The reason we’re collecting
coins is, we don’t want them to
think they need to bring in a lot,”
said Claire Bevans.
“We want people to see a few
cents can make a change,” Ward
added.
In total, the three classrooms
have raised more than $1,165 to
purchase 11 balls, meaning 11 balls
will be donated to third-world
countries as well.
