Thebes, written by student Joe Gainer, was presented at WMC during the weekend of May 12, 1979. The play is an adaptation of an ancient Greek tragedy, and was presented in the newly renovated Alumni Hall Understage. Under- stage is uniquely suited for small audiences, allowing a more personal and direct relationship with the performers. The cast consisted of Joe Gainer, Don and Elane Harris, and much of the literary and dramatic community at Western Maryland. The costumes were designed by Mau- reen Sullivan, the set and lighting were designed by Chris- tian Wittwer, and the play was most successfully directed by Bill Tribby. 54
