           Joanna Wiedeman  had  been  involved.  She enjoyed the




           support of the cast as she prepared for the performances.





           "I think I enjoyed the people the most. It was my first real





            production, and the entire cast was really amazing,"  As it





           came time for opening day, she said,  "I learned a lot and




           even when  I  made mistakes or got bad jitters, they [the





            cast] were right there supporting me and telling me that





           the stage on opening day really was not that bad."





                           Another semester led to another successful produc­




            tion that could not have been done without the hours of





            practice and hard work of the cast and crew.
