Lycoming College freshmen will stage an original performance piece on the mystery and myth surrounding Anastasia on December 5 and 6 in the Mary L. Welch Theatre. The one-hour performance starts at 8 p.m. and tickets are free. The piece, focusing on the Czar's daughter, is a combination of narration, scenes and visual images put together by fourteen members of a freshman seminar class after a semester studying the Russian Revolution. The Seminar is taught by Jaye Beetem, a member of the theatre faculty.

The freshman seminar on Anastasia is one of seven seminars open to incoming freshmen. The other seminars include: "The 4^th and 5^th Kingdoms" (on plants and fungi) taught by Dr. Michelle Briggs; "Darwin, Evolution, Science, and You" taught by Dr. Edward Gabriel; "Utopian Literature" taught by Dr. Darby Lewes; "The Hero who runs with the Wolves" taught by Dr. Carole Moses; "Hispanic Women Writers" taught by Dr. Sandra Kingery and "The Psychology of Parenting" taught by Dr. Susan Kelley.

Displays from the other seminars will be on display in the lobby of the Mary L. Welch Theatre.
