Mansion 1, 1970 September 21

 Item — video: 2

Scope and Contents

The Colonel Enos Wall Mansion, 411 East South Temple. 01:56.

Louise Degn's not: I asked two actors to dress up in "old-fashioned" formal attire to recreate the look of guests arriving at the mansion, riding the elevator, entering the ballroom, etc. only to see it transformed into the modern day (i.e. ugly) classroom. Several times during my career I tried to recreate scenes with actors; seldom did they work. The opening stand-up, original voice track and music were lost and the latter two have been rerecorded for this 2002 reconstruction. Original script available.
