2005

Suni

2005 was fairly similar to 2004. The cast for the summer shows, two males and three females, were all students from UNL. We went with a new Director for the dinner train again as Jillian Clay Morse left to pursue her further education. Mark Romano agreed to try his hand at directing. We also produced the usual Fall Melodrama production.
