The production plots ranged from comedy to despair. The casts brilliantly brought to S life the following works. 1. Hansel and Gretel by Engelbert Humperdink In this age-old tale, modernized for the Liberty University stage, two rambunctious candy-loving youngsters happen upon a sweet surprise. As they pilfer the candy house, the witch appears to gobble the children. Overcoming her charms, Hansel and Gretel toss the witch into the oven and dance merrily away. 2. Susannah by Carlisle Floyd Orphaned, Susannah and her brother Sam were outcasts of the mountain ous New Hope, Tenn. community. The mayor's son Little Bat, age 14, idol ized the innocent and sweet Susannah Polk. But he ends up destroying her reputation by lying about her to the hate-filled elders of the church. The elders were trying to find a baptismal for the town revival, but instead, found Susannah, bathing in the creek. In their tirade the elders shunned Susannah. Devastated, she flees to the arms of her loving brother. 3. The Medium by Gian Carlo Menotti Toby, a Budapest boy feels the pangs of true love and hatred as he falls into the vile hands of Baba, a drunken medium, and the loving hands of her young daughter Monica. In a fantasy world, Monica sings the part of a slave boy expressing his love to her, the beautiful princess. As a mute, Toby wants to express his love to Monica, and cries as he hears her speak the words he never can. In the end, Baba beats Toby for not being able to tell her who had grabbed her neck during a seance. 4.

Rigoletto the jester plots to kill the duke of Mantua who had defiled the jester's daughter Gilda. Sparafucile, the innkeeper is hired by Rigoletto to kill the duke. The innkeeper's sister Maddalena hears of the plot and convinces the duke to kill someone else.
