Show Messenger - Enterprise, Thurs., August 18, 1977 Page 4 Pageont Inspires Children to Creole Own Production Participating in the Mormon Miracle Pageant was a growing and challenging experience for the children in the neighborhood of 4th South and Main Street. The idea of creating their own pageant became a large part of each day as they gathered to practice for their own pageant The Mormons, which was premiered on the lawn of the Reed Scow home the night of August 1st. Parents were challenged for the donation of lamp shades, gunny sacks, Christmas decorations, white cloth, various odds and ends, as the children worked, practiced, brainstormed, and envisioned the production. A picnic table became the stage and JoAnn Scows car provided the power for the spotlight. The fact that the seat of Eric Besseys chair fell out during the production only added to the authenticity of Joseph Smiths problems. Mrs. Henry Voorhees viewed from her large window the comings and goings of the children as they practiced their parts over and over for the final production. They were interested in telling their own story and acting out the various scenes in their own way. Discussions and plans came to life and disagreements and quarrelings were forgotten as they all worked together. T. M. Albrecht, age 12, of Roosevelt, Utah, was director of this pageant. He also narrated his taped script. Lisa Garbe (Lewis) and Diane Bessey (Bob) were in charge of the lighting, the audio, and the costume changes. Many and varied were the scenes depicting events in the life of Joseph Smith, the practices and wars of the Lamanites and Nephites, the prophet Samuel (who took his stance on the Scows oil tank) and the crossing of the Red Sea by Moses and his people. The grand finale was an aisle of with a angels highlighted tableau. Suitable music accompanied the spoken word. Both had been previously taped. One scene was especially dramatic as the narrator called I, the repentance, saying, Lord, am sick and tired of the way the people are acting. The cast included Leslie, Jeanette, and Kathy Lund (Pete and Lucille); Eric and Susie Bessey (Bob and Carolyn); Darin and Maria Garbe (Lewis and Janet); Chip and Rona Wintch (Walt and Darlene); T. M. Albrecht (JoAnn Scow); and Ruth Ann Scow (Reed ana JoAnn). Proud and interested parents were in attendance. Coming from across the street was Mrs. Aleen Voorhees. Other neighbors attending were Mrs. Mable Anderson and Mrs. Iris Larson, Debra Scow, Lisa Bessey and Tiffany Garbe. were Smiling grandparents Waldo and Eunice Garbe and Ernest and Ruth Scow.
