OLIO CAST
Kind patrons of the AUDIENCE are encouraged to cheer for the stalwart HERO,
sigh for the virtuous HEROINE,
boo and hiss the deeds of the dastardly VILLAIN,
and otherwise applaud, stomp, whistle, sob, and gasp in enthusiastic SUPPORT
of the triumph of GOOD over evil,
INNOCENCE over debauchery, and TEMPERANCE over Demon Rum:
but all, of course, will comport themselves with the apprapriate decorum
as befits LADIES and GENTLEMEN
Do not expectorate on the floor!
Do not stand on the chairs.
Do not rush the stage before the curtain drops!
IMPORTANT NOTE:
