Nite For Your Shopping Convenience "On the Balcony" Graduates Play Tuesday Kis theatrical roles in "The War rior's Husband," "Mr. Roberts," "Where the Cross Is Made," and "Henry IV" have given him a varied background from which to draw his characterization of a proud Seneca who has seen his lands taken away from him by the white people. As a first lieutenant and pla toon leader in the 25th Division, he saw action in Korea. He re turned to school on the GI Bill following his Army assignment. Following the tour of "Johnny Appleseed, he will return and finish his college work. Alan Sims, graduate of San Francisco State, was finishing his term of practice teaching in drama at Lowell High school in San Francisco when he was audi tioned and accepted for the ju venile role of Roy Williams in the play. He has been vitally interested in dramatics and the theater since high school days. At San Francisco State college he play ed in Sheridan's "The Rivals," Wilder's "Our Town," Maxwell Anderson's "Joan of Lorraine" and many other productions. He tried his hand at directing and has had a great deal of techni cal experience. His hobby is working with handicapped chil dren and he has served as crea tive dramatics counselor at the San Francisco Recreation Cen ter for the Handicapped. Plays Irishman Fred Engelberg of San Jose State college comes into the pro duction as the lusty Irish Dan McQuade, agent of the Holland Land company, who lives in a log house in the wilderness on Brokenstraw creek. He has creat ed of Dan a character which chil dren will find most appealing, lor his Dan is a blustery, though kind man, who believes in the strength of his gun arm to see him through his difficulties. The largest member of the company, he has a surprisingly soft voice, and can sing folk songs which he. accompanies on the guitar. In the production he sings and accompanies Johnny Appleseed in his song. He is looking forward to the tour as providing him with an opportun ity to pick up new folk songs and see the west. The part of Liz Williams, the only woman in the cast, is por trayed by Benita Camicia, an other alumnus of San Jose State college. In the speech depart ment there she enacted a variety of roles, both ingenue, charact er and comedy. In addition, she played in three children's theater productions, as Heckal in "The Elves and the Shoemaker," Crow in "The Snow Queen," and Rosa lie in "Snow White." She is a dancer of considerable exper ience in both ballet and modern dance and has been a photo graphic model for several years Tiny and dark, she makes an ap pealing picture as the widowed pioneer woman who braves the wilderness with her son Roy and her three young children, be cause "Pa said we would find good land here."
