Now we’re going way back. 🙂
Added to the “Back Then” page (click on the title in the line above, under the header photo) are scans of the 1962 and 1961 Minstrel Revue programs, when members of the Class of 1964 were sophomores and freshmen.
In 1961, the show included only a few specialty performers from the Class, best I can tell. Performing as freshmen were Mary Lou Lattinville, Rita Arsenault, and Dan Cotter. There was stronger representation behind the scenes with Fran Liro beginning his stellar career in lighting, and Patrica Bagge, Bill Fleming, Richard Joseph, Jean Matthew, Kathleen McDonald, and Jim Montanari helping with make-up.
By sophomore year, the Class was much more active. The 1962 show featured the first group composed only of classmates — “Chattanooga Choo Choo” — with Elaine Ambrose as “directress” and featuring 24 fellow sophomores. But other groups included class members among their participants. Look in the 1962 program at pages 49 and 52-54 for listings.
I attended 1960-61, made varsity hockey under Guy LaMarche as freshman. Dad got transferred to St Louis (boooo).
Jean Matthews, Kathleen McDonald and Patricia Bagge all classmates from Our Lady Of The Sacred Heart.
