The Cast from "Praise" in the "green scene" rnoM ' *
In Praise of PRAISE
by Pam Colbert
The grapevine of Guilford's
College campus has been
buzzing with news of
something great happening on
the stage of Dana Auditorium,
the premiereof "Praise". An
exciting new historically
based musical about the early
Quakers of England and how
they flee from England's
religious persecution, to
America in search of the right
to freely assemble. Marilyn
Burris, in the leading role,
portrays a strong woman of
the Quaker faith. With
determination, she leads her
five - fatherless girls to a life of
religious freedom and away
from the continuous adversive
tactics they received while
trying to worship in England.
The tribunal scenes from
the courts of England appear
to be accurate in their
accounts of the Quakers who
are repeatedly questioned
about the Friends meetings,
searched for tokens (suppo
sedly marked of the devil on
the body), and banishment to
other countries to work for an
indefinite length of time. If you
happen to be taking notes, you
will be sure to include the
performances of Kim Chinn,
Peter E. Riess, and Marilyn
Burris. Kim, as Deelee one of
Rebecca's four children was
recognized as the ostentatious
"camp leader" who always
seemed to have a way with
bringing joy to the scene.
Roland Atwater portrayed by
Peter E. Riess is the zany
stowaway who quickly be
comes a 'friend'.
Dean Regenos deserves a
high degree of credit for
producing and directing
"Praise" but above all,
scoring it. Songs such as "I
Want to Remember", "Prayer
Song", and "I've Got to Try"
are well executed by Marilyn
Burris, however Kim Chinn
adds a touch of soul and
liveliness to portions of the
play in "I Got That Feeling"
and "Sharing Love". Without
the nearly quintessential
fluidity of the musicians, none
of these songs could have
possibly been accompanied as
well as they were. Although I
have not been too familiar
with past shows, "Praise"
goes without speaking to
stand out as a symbol in
Guilford's history as being a
part of this country's
Bicentennial celebration.
