AS A MEMORY . . . THE 1ST PLAY PUT ON AT ALPINE ELEMENTARY
WHILE I WAS THERE WAS "TOM SAWYER", DIRECTED BY JOAN LINDSAY.
CONRAD WAS THE MUSICAL DIRECTOR.
IT WAS SO MUCH BETTER WITH LIVE MUSIC!
THIS WAS 1984.

ANYWAY, 20 YEARS LATER, IN 2004,
JOAN CAME BACK AND DID THE PLAY AGAIN.
THE BEST PART WAS "THE BOWS" AT THE END.
IN 1984, EACH CHARACTER CAME OUT SOLO, AND BOWED.
IN 2004, EACH CHARACTER CAME OUT TO BOW...HOLDING THE
HAND OF THE STUDENT WHO PLAYED THE PART IN 1984!!!
IT WAS A TEAR JERKER!!!
1984 KIDS CAME FROM ALL OVER THE COUNTRY!!!
THE ONLY PERSON NOT THERE TO REPRISE THEIR ROLE?
CONRAD.
