PAGE 2 — The Georgia Bulletin, February 12, 1987 “Cabaret Theater" Recalls 50 Years At Christ The King BY KATHRYN BUCKLEY SMITH "Fifty years of ser vice...fifty years of wor ship... building our com munity...struggling to find unity...nine presidents, five mayors, five pastors...war and peace; love and birth; death and glory...Tonight we recall them all...And tonight we celebrate! Celebrate tonight!” Be delightfully surprised and entertained by what has transpired in the last 50 years at the Cathedral of Christ the King. “Come celebrate” for an evening at the Cathedral of Christ the King’s 50th anniversary Cabaret Theater, marking the Cathedral’s anniver sary in 1987. Beginning on the front lawn of the Cathedral, the action moves quickly to St. Peter’s Gate, to a period rife with rumors of secret tunnels, and “Big Tim’s” spanking machine. Time is spent reminiscing with Monsignor Joseph E. Moy- lan in his black clerics and a special appearance is made by Monsignor John McDonough in his Hawai ian shirt. The transition from Latin to English in the liturgy is duly noted. The audience follows a weeping church mouse, a hungry church mouse, even a singing church mouse through 50 years of “prejudice and change, hatred and charity, delu sions and true vision.” With many tales recalled and yarns disclosed the Cathedral’s golden years are remembered in a truly grand celebration. This cabaret is written, produced and acted by Cathedral parishioners. Richard Farnsworth is the playwright and director is Jim Doherty. Music direc tor is Mark Haas. Tickets must be purchas ed ahead of time. The Christ the King 50th an- 250 Couples Renew Marriage Vows niversary Cabaret Theater will run Fri., Feb. 27, and Sat., Feb. 28 in the gym.
