duction of "The Sorcerer's Ap
prentice" which toured last sea-
son. A change in casting has
placed him as the villain giant
Cuchullain, "the biggest giant
in all the world , who wishes
to re-establish himself in Ireland
as king of the giants. Pat hails
from Sacramento, Calif.
Another Sacramento native is
Walter Murphy who plays both
the role of the cousin in the play

glove with the fairies".
In Act I of the production,
adopted from an Irish folk tale,
Mistress Mc'Cool evokes a spell
to communicate with her sister,
Granua. In Act II, the opening
string of Ibert's "Escales" help
Mistress Mc'Cool to solve the
problem of outwitting the Giant
Cuchullain. In this act Mistress
Mc'Cool chants one of the old
est chants which leads her to
use nine strands of colored yarn
tied about her wrist, her waist
and her ankle. These nine strands
give her the clue for which she
is seeking.
Other music includes a brief
snatch from the Scherzo of Men
delssohn's "Midsummers Night
Dream", which is used as the
identifying theme for the lepre
chaun, Mr. Meebly. Richard
Strauss and Respighi also con
tribute small parts of mood mu
sic.
However, three well-known
Irish tunes comprise the main
body of music for the play in
cluding "the Rakes of Mallow,"
'The- Irish Washerwoman," and
"The Girt I Left Behind Me."
