ABOUT THE PLAY Sid Sorokin has just been hired as foreman in a pajama factory in the Midwest. He is very conscientious and aims to succeed where his predecessors have failed. In taking this new job he unknowingly runs into the midst of a long dispute between the management and the girl workers. He also runs into the beautiful, vivacious Babe and falls for her. Since Babe (she's Union) is head of the grievance committee and Sid (He's Management) is the foreman, it is inevitable that there is a clash between them. This is not helped by the intrigue going on between Hines, the erratic efficiency expert, and Gladys, the private secretary to the boss. Gladys wears the key to the company's books around her neck with instructions from the boss that no one is to get it. Sid wants to take a look at the books and get to the bottom of the dispute and makes a play for Gladys in an effort to get the key. Hines is insanely jealous of Gladys and threatens Sid. Sid solves the problems - the workers get their raise - he gets Babe - and everyone is happy! ABOUT OUR DIRECTOR Ms. Zundell-Weiner adds our community theater group to her long list of credits from New York to Florida to Southern California. Her impressive background working with the New York Governor's Council on Youth in the Arts and innovative approches in Educational Theatre earned her a listing in Who's Who of American Women, Who's Who Women of the World, Notable Americans, and Personalities of America. Shehas directed and performed in numerous productions, receiving excellent reviews in all her undertakings. Claire has aspirations of someday acquiring her own theater so that she can" involve young people in good, exciting, quality theater on a professional level". Most recently she has been doing just that in the Fremont School District where she has instituted an all district production of the musical "Oliver", utilizing all the grade levels from Kindergarten through the Seniors in High School. We feel very fortunate that Claire was able to include our 50th production in her busy schedule, and hope that she will return to us periodically to display her creative talents.

ABOUT OUR MUSIC DIRECTOR John Doscher makes his debut as a Music Director of a musical comedy. He first joined WVLO as a member of the orchestra for "Flower Drum Song". Most recently he has been active with local college big band jazz. As a bass trombone player, John performed in musicals, orchestras and jazz bands while at Foothill College and San Jose State and as Assistant Director of School Bands. Welcome to our "Golden" production, John!

ABOUT OUR CHORAL DIRECTOR Vivian Bergman returns to us on the other side of the footlights in a staff position after her impressive roles as Laurey in "Oklahoma" and Patricia in "Good News". With five years of music and vocal study at Peninsula Conservatory of Music with Adele Adler and other leading roles in local productions of "Carousel", "Patience" and "La Belle Helene", Vivian is a talented addition to our staff. She lists her hobbies- teaching voice and Robert P.. We sonder what she's teaching Robert P. (that's her husband)!

ABOUTOURCHOREOGRAPHER Gayle Frank helped choreograph "Brigadoon" two years ago and has danced in several of our productions. She has also appeared at the Gaslighter Theater, Santa Clara Players and Montalvo in varying roles from Dracula's bride to streetwalker to a sweet, innocent ingenue, With Gayle's energetic routines you can certainly tell her major h~bby is dancing, her relaxing one is camping. We are sure you will see more of Gayle's creative talents on our stage in the future.

REBECCA WHITE (Babe) Becky returns in her second production for West Valley Light Opera, her first was "Good News" last season. Previous stage performances include Daisy Mae in "Li'l Abner" for Saratoga Drama Group, and Princess Barbara in "The Apple Tree", Mrs. Barker in "The American Dream" and a madrigal singer in "As You Like It", all for Union College in New York. When she's not performing on stage, you will find Becky performing back stage in many capacities - stage crew, sewing costumes, painting sets, mopping the stag, etc. Her hobbies away from the theatre include camping, hiking, writing satirical scripts, sculpting, sewing and needlework, just to mention a few of the many talents of this remarkable performer.

ROBERT P. BERGMAN (Sid) Bob first joined WVLO for "Oklahoma" in the role of Curly and then returned in last season's "Good News". His credits include Frank Butler in "Anne Get Your Gun", PishTush in "The Mikado", Tony and Bernardo in "West Side Story" and Bill Sykes in "Oliver". A graduate of University of Santa Clara's Law School, Bob is a practicing attorney in Santa Clara and in his spare time likes reading, music, game design and lovely wife, Vivian (not necessarily in that order). Future aspirations include owning his own theater and directing productions of his own. In the meantime we're very happy having his talents grace our stage.

ELIZABETH JERNIGAN (Gladys) This production is Betsy's debut on our stage, but she is used to the footlights for she has appeared with the Santa Clara Junior Theatre for 3 years where she performed in "Carousel", "Tom Sawyer", "Pin- occhio", and "The Boyfriend" where she played Maisie. She is currently a student at Cupertino High School and her interest include song writing, drawing and playing the clarinet. Betsy has her goals set for a theatrical career so best of luck to a new star.

CARL BALLOU (Hines) Regular members will remember Carl from "Kiss Me, Kate" in which he played Gremio and performed as a lead dancer in his famous "break the balloons" dance. He has performed in many productions on this stage including "Brigadoon", "My Fair Lady" and "South Pacific" and was Assistant Director for "Wonderful Town". Carl is such a versatile young man; he is at home anywhere in the theater, both on stage as well as behind the scenes as Lighting Designer, stage crew, etc. Off the stage, Carl is a professional photographer, and we thank him for his fine display of cast photos in the lobby. DONNA BICK (Mabel) This marks Donna's first appearance with West Valley Light Opera, but she is no newcomer to theater. Previous stage performances locally include the role of Mrs. Mitty in "Thurber Carnival" for San Jose Theatre Guild, Maude in "Maude" for Hibiscus Theatre and Grace in "It's Never Too Late" for Community Players. She has a degree in Sociology from San Jose State and recently attended a 'Clown School' at UC Berkeley. Her hobbies include piano playing, attending theater productions, but her ambition is to work with ACT in San Francisco.

JOHN WALSH (Hasler) This is John's fourth appearance on our stage. He was formerly seen in "Sound of Music" as Franz, a Mountie in "Rose Marie" and as Commander Harberson in "South Pacific". He has also appeared in SDG's "Damn Yankees" and "Most Happy Fella" , and Community Players' "Mame" as Mr. Upsom. John produced "The Man Who Came to Dinner" for Community Players so now has a special knowledge and appreciation for the technical side of theater. He has done all of this during the past five years - when the theatre bug bites, it often makes its victim an addict. Welcome to the club, John; there are alot of us addicts in this community of talented performers.

SAM JOHN SMITH (Prez) "Pajama Game" will be Sam John's 10th production with WVLO. Someof his most memorable roles on this stage include Harry/Baptista in "Kiss Me, Kate", Captain Brackett in "South Pacific", Doctor in "Robert & Elizabeth", and Jacob in "Paint Your Wagon". Other credits in the Bay Area include numerous Gilbert & Sullivan performances, including "Princess Ida", "Cox & Box", and EI Camino Opera's "Die Fledermaus" in the role of Eisenstein. Before moving to the Bay Area, Sam John appeared in several opera and light opera productions in the Hollywood Bowl and Los Angeles Conservatory of Music.
