We did Sandstones that Raymond wrote at Panguitch High. The kids won best actor, best supporting actor, and others but we didn't win best play because the play was by an unknown writer. I was disgusted. The next year we did The Devil and Daniel Webster..I thought it was a play that could win...and my lead actors checked out of my class because I gave them a lower grade than an A. I couldn't talk them back.<br /> Raymond came to my rescue..wrote a play called Apathy<br />with each character playing themselves, a futuristic play where everyone was told what to do over the tv..one died of Apathy.<br />The kids did it well and it was so different, I was once again put to task for not using a well-known play by a well-known writer. We won nothing. But that play hit a part of me (part rebellion?) that made me almost laugh to do it. I still have this great satisfaction for having put on that particular play. Thanks for the help, Raymond!kanyonland King 2.blogspot.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09889895547932287411noreply@blogger.com
