The auditorium at Natrona County

Wyoming · United States · Execution site

She was a junior in the 1940s. The version most often told has her climbing back through a window for a bag she left on stage, not knowing how high it was.

The account at this school in Casper, Wyoming concerns a girl who was a junior there in the 1940s.

How she died is told several ways. The version most often repeated has her auditioning for a play one evening, leaving her bag on the stage, and climbing back in through a window to get it. She did not realise how high the window was. The fall broke her back.

No record of any such death has been produced, and it should be read as school folklore rather than history.

The auditorium here is worth seeing regardless. Natrona County High School was built in 1924 with an auditorium far grander than a school of its size would suggest, in a Wyoming oil town that had money at the time and wanted it known.

Students and staff report things in it.

The school is in use.
