A long-running Broadway play by Andrew Lloyd Webber, “CATS” tells the story of a tribe of cats called the Jellicles and the night they make what is known as “the Jellicle Call the Missouri Valley Shopper at 665-5884 or stop by to place your ad today! 319 Walnut St. • Yankton MV Shopper MV Shopper M I S S O U R I VA L L E Y M I S S O U R I VA L L E Y Super SharpTM Crimped-Center Disk Blades for Case IH The Cutting Edge Super Sharp edges process and size the residue of the toughest, genetically-engineered BT corn and soybean crop residue, as well as wheat and barley straw.

They have continued to learn and grow at an incredible rate, but we still have lots to do.” Not including intermission, Miner estimates the show will be about 90 minutes. “There are huge numbers and catchy tunes,” she said. “It’s essentially an opera because every word is sung.” Kallis noted that the dynamic between the veteran and inexperienced cast members has been interesting to observe. “The senior performers understand how grueling the process is and how awesome the payoff is,” she said. “Right now, our underclassmen and people that haven’t had stage time before are just seeing the grueling process and wonder if it ever has a payoff. It’s fun to see the seniors tell them to keep on the journey, that it’s worth it.” The realization that the first performance is mere days away is beginning to sink in, according to musical director Julie Amsberry. “There’s always a point where it’s time for an audience and start putting costumes on,” she said. “Their commitment and understanding rises when they start adding those things.” With the clock ticking down, students are focused on final preparations. “We’re in fine detail mode,” cast member Lily Fedde said. “We’re adding little things like spots and stripes, little pieces of fur. Some cats need to look fluffy and others look sleek.” Other cast members are still fine tuning their singing and dancing. “The singing and dancing are equally challenging, especially for the people who don’t have a theatre background,” cast member Hailey Wagner said. According to Kallis, the cast members have shown a drive that has helped them reach this point. “I think they’re a special Let Our Family Business keep yours in the go with: PART NO. 87618084 DESCR. 20 Solid 22 Solid 20 Solid 24 Solid Disk Blades for Other Makes DESCR. 20 Solid 22 Solid 22 Solid 18 Solid 22 Solid choice” and decide which cat will ascend to the Heaviside Layer and come back to a new life. The musical is based on “Old Possum’s Book of Practical Cats” by T. S. Eliot, a collection of poems about different kinds of cats. Play production started last fall and casting and rehearsals began in midFebruary. Director Amy Miner is pleased with the progress the students have made. “I’m excited, overwhelmed and exhausted,” she remarked. She credits the cast and volunteers for bringing the show to the level it’s at. “We’ve handed the makeup off to some of the students - Alleysia Ugofsky is sort of heading it,” Miner said. “Rebecca Swift has come up with the standard makeup design for each cat. That is a process in and of itself.” The students are responsible for making sure their makeup is done and ready for show time. “There are 80 cats split among six stations and each has seven minutes to get their makeup done,” costume designer Pam Kallis said. “We did it for the first time Tuesday and they were all done on time. Seven minutes from nothing to cat is pretty incredible.” “I had trouble recognizing some of them,” Miner added. “Once they’re in their full costumes with makeup, their teachers won’t recognize them.” This attention to detail will also be evident in the props. The set has various levels, allowing for more room for more cats onstage. With 80 cats, the length the crew goes for making space is necessary. “We could have done this show with 20 people, but to provide this experience in educational theatre, we wanted more kids involved,” Miner said. However, Miner hasn’t made the show easy for them. “This show is a monster,” she said. “The kids are working incredibly hard, but we 87618066 87618089 87442993 • Farm Filters • Hydraulic Hoses • Bearings & Seals Cox Auto 87618082 87442995 1007 Broadway Ave. • Yankton • 665-4494 Buick Encore 87618068 Call Tony Now!!! 665-3720 Earth Metal® Disks Web Site: www.kaytonint.com 2630 State Hwy. 14, Albion • 402-395-2181 • 800-248-2215 1211 W. 2nd, Crofton • 402-388-4375 • 800-798-4376 West Hwy. 275, Neligh • 402-887-4118 • 800-247-4718 Salvage Title 2014 Encore All Wheel Drive, 1.4 L with Turbo, Power Seat, Backup Camera, XM Radio, 37K Miles $14,995 group,” she said. “We’ve all pushed them and they’ve wanted more. After one rehearsal, we were debating to do one or two more songs, and they were the ones saying, ‘Let’s do them all.’” Miner is happy with the students’ enthusiasm. “The kids have really embraced the show,” she said. “Oftentimes when you start a show, you cut back some of the singing and dancing. We haven’t done that. We’ve been pushing them and they’ve been absorbing everything and doing above and beyond what I’d hoped when we started.” Community enthusiasm has also helped move the show along. Volunteers have helped with painting costumes, donating water for the performances and making sure the crew has enough material and equipment. “People want the kids to succeed and the show to be successful,” Miner said. “Yankton has a very welcoming acceptance of young artists.” This acceptance is something the performers want the public to keep in mind when they come to the show. “Don’t compare us to Broadway,” Wagner said. “We’re doing our best to put on this fabulous show for everyone. We’ve made it our own.” ——— Cast: Munkustrap — Logan Haak; Coricopat — Abbie Rehurek; Bombalurina — Mikayla Trenhaile; Tantomile — McKenzie Schroeder; Demeter — Maddie Smith; Quaxo — Jeryka Goble; Jellylorum — Kyra Liebig; Bustopher Jones — Manny Valadez; Rum Tum Tugger — Avery Brockberg; Macavity — Ted Anders; Grizabella — Sophie Drotzmann; Skimbleshanks — Kelsey Westerman; Jemima — Lauryn Perk; Mungojerrie — Jenna Trail; Asparagus (Gus) — Dylan Klimisch; Rumpleteazer — Cate Perakslis; Jennyanydots — Taylor Wesseln; Mr. Mistoffelees — Rachel Frick; Old Deuteronomy — Brett Pardy; Cassandra — Hailey Wagner; Victoria — Piper Mikkelsen; Etcetera — Rachel Rucker; Victor — Dylan Rausch; Electra — Kami Cornemann; Bill Bailey — Owen Phillips; Carbucketty — Tori Cass; Alonzo — Dakota Barnes Ensemble Roles: Pouncival — Sydney Ingalls; Tumblebrutus — Ashley VanMeeteren; Griddlebone — Kylee Duncan; Plato — Guthrie Scoblic; Admetus — Andrew Peitz; Augustus — Michael Drotzmann; Pitterpatter — Zoie Lee Marcotte; Mrs. Cunningham — Haylee Heinemeyer; Tweedle — Kaitlyn Steffen; Kerplunk — Abby Cuka; Ticktock — Anne Knoff; Sillabub — Sophie Bisgaard; Bibbidi — Alexis Rezac; Bobbodi — Lauren Rezac; Boo — Kristen Rezac; Smudge — Alexis Sejnoha; AbbyTabby — Miranda Winterringer; n cats Page 19 605-665-3720 • Yankton, SD Sealand Marine & Trailer ING SPR BOAT & TRAILER All IN STOCK BOATS AND TRAILERS ARE AT SALE PRICES THURSDAY, APRIL 14TH SATURDAY, APRIL 16TH 9:00 A.M. - 6:00 P.M. 9:00 A.M. - 4:00 P.M.
