Show ration, the LD Singers and Institute Choir students spend annually prior to and during the performance of their Christmas Concert at the Institute. This year is no exception. The commitment of these students should be simply labeled as This Week at the LDS Institute by Barry Baker Associate Director Many years ago I heard a speaker in church talk about the best season all, the holiday season. Even though the students at the Ephraim LDS Institute of Religion have just returned from their annual long weekend of celebrating Thanksgiving with the folks at home, they feel the spirit of that holiday did not end; but really just the best of all fast will feature the usual college breakfast elite: pancakes, sausage, hash browns and milk or orange juice. The Institute teachers are actually getting to be quite competent at hosting this annual affair for the winter quarter students at the Institute.

LD Nutcracker costuming is challenge One of the most beloved characters in the Nutcracker ballet, to be presented the first two Saturdays in December, is a huge maternal figure with billowing skirts. The skirts are the hideout of little characters who appear from beneath the skirts, caper and strut then are ultimately gathered again (with some difficulty) for a frenzied exit. It was decided that Central Utah Nutcrackers character would be named Mother Ginger and her offspring would be Bon-Bon- and discussing the costume with several ballet companies in the Salt Lake area, it was decided to attempt a Mother Ginger character about eight feet tall, with skirts over 21 feet in circumference. A local expert in drap- eries served as consultant, and the Nutcracker Staff aided in creation of the behemoth. The basic frame for the skirt was made from 20 hula hoops which were remade into concentric circular supports. Hours went into shaping the frame with hot air from a hair dryer, duct tape, staples and wooden dowels. A petticoat was made from salvaged bedsheets and over 40 yards of fabric went into the skirt. Mother Gingers are little people aged three through s. Beverly Armstrong accepted the responsibility for rehearsing the Mother Ginger number, and it fell to Bev and her husband, Dr. Robert Armstrong, to create the costume.

The youngsters are costumed in bright lifesaver colors to represent candy, while Mothers dress is gingerbread colored and decorated with traditional cookie figures. The part of Mother Ginger herself will be danced in the 50 pound costume on stilts by a local hero who prefers to remain nameless at this time. The Nutcracker Ballet will be presented at the South Sevier High School in Monroe on December 2nd at 2:00 p.m. and again at 7:00 p.m. On December 9th at 2:00 p.m. and again at 7:00 p.m. the production will take place at North Sanpete High School in ML Pleasant. t ' " i 0 V A , , v "tj, JX ' - - . .... 4 ..
