  2. A few minor mistakes there (the King Lear picture is from a much later production), but wonderful.

    Who can pick out the picture of the grandfather of a current political figure?

    1. Ah there were 2 productions, one from 1967, the other from 1972. We'll correct the photo. Thanks.

  3. I think it was after 1972. Chris Oden would have been about 12 years old in 1972. I'll ask Doug Darfield. (The 1972 production was only the first act, done as a one act play)
