Description

"The Thunderbird" makes a flight to the top of a large drum for rhythmic Native American dance before warriors in the operetta which opened at McLean Junior High School amphitheater under the direction of the recreation department and members of the fine arts department at TCU. Ross Hancock plays the part of the "Thunderbird." Warriors are Sydney Ramsey and Eddie Parker. Ross Hancock playing the "Thunderbird" is dressed as a bird and has his hands extended to either side, while the warrior characters kneel below the large drum looking towards the "Thunderbird."
