The Perquimans Weekly, Hertford, N.C., Thursday, August 31,1995 - Page 9 Lucy Vaughn puts memories to music with USO CAMP SHOW By SUSAN R. HARRIS E^torand JIM ROBERTS Assistant Lifestyles Editor The Daily Advance It’s not Broadway. It’s not even off-Broadway. But Lucy Vaughan’s USO Camp Show will be appreciated by those who choose to drive off Snug Ifprbor Road to Dinner Theater at Angler’s Cove. Especially if they lived through the days of World War II. i Unlike some shows written ^bout the war, this one is authentic. Vaughan spent a year on the USO circuit. The musical is taken from her experiences.working with the likes of Bob Hope, Ingrid Bergman and Red Skelton. It features 40 songs, including some by Glenn Miller, the Andrews Sisters and Johnny Mercer. ’ She remembers fondly her hays with the USO. “We never knew where we Jwere going to play,” she said, fit was a secret until we got there.” She performed mostly in hospitals in France, Germany, Belgium, Holland and Luxembourg. “It was a good way to earn a living,” she said. “The pay was wonderful.” But it was also tough seeing so many people die. “When it was bad, it was so sad it was a heartbreaker,” she said. “It just tore me to pieces.

Vaughan, also a Broadway veteran, takes the stage herself to do two French numbers, “Lili Marlene” and Place Pigalle,” in the show. Her years in show business are obvious as she holds an audi ence spellbound. Vaughan has brought together quite a mix of per formers for the show, most with experience in theater in the Albemarle area. Glee Hammer, Phil McMullan, Rick Durren, Cricket Fox, Theresa Molthen, Anne and Erin Parrish, Gene Webster, John Becker, Chris Boyette, Skip Jones, Ed Morrow, Athena Morris, Russ Rumps and Amy Weber make up the cast. Roy Darnell handles the music on the keyboard. The show is produced by Julie Feeney and directed by Vaughan. USO Camp Show is very emotional. At the end of Act I, the entire cast sings “When the local stage more often. The two-hour production takes the theater-goer from laughter to tears and back again. Whether you were in WWII, lived during those years or have just heard about the experiences of others during that time, the USO Camp Show is worth taking the time to see.
