5 The Carroll News Artswww.jcunews.com & Life April 10, 2008 ‘Working’ sends a meaningful message Kristin Duns Lena Chapin The Carroll News

This past Friday and Saturday, audiences assembled in the John Carroll University Kulas Auditorium to reap the benefits of the truthful message presented by the cast of “Working.” “Working” is a candid musical put on by 18 fervent JCU performers and seven talented musicians. The musical is based upon author Studs Terkel’s 1974 book, “Working” and is directed by the JCU Communications and Theatre Arts Department Chair Karen Gygli. Terkel’s piece mimics the mundane actions of ordinary people trying to survive the trials and tribulations of their demanding jobs. While entering the theatre, the audience is immediately exposed to the musical’s simple, yet extravagant set design. It is made up of ladders, chairs, desks and hard hats. This scenery, devised by JCU Communications and Theatre Arts professor Keith Nagy, aids the viewer in pondering the meaning of the production’s title, “Working.” It quickly reveals to the viewer that the meaning of the story will revolve around the tough, unwanted jobs many must endure Photo courtesy of Keith Nagy to make a living and essentially survive in Cast members of the Communications and Theatre Arts Department’s production, ‘Working,’ onstage in the Kulas Auditorium. today’s fast-paced world.

Film score by ‘The Rage:’ Edward Douglas

Alana Forsythe The Carroll News

The soundtrack to “The Rage,” composed by Edward Douglas of the group Midnight Syndicate, is a disturbing mix of heart pounding instrumental music that sets the stage for the chilling film. “The Rage” was directed by Bob Kurtzman and tells the story of a once benevolent scientist whose work and life become twisted as they spin out of his control. Douglas, a John Carroll University graduate, composed the soundtrack to fit flawlessly with each scene of the film. As the CD begins to play, the pounding noises and beats allow one to imagine an eerie musical, a slow start to a huge production. That impression quickly changes as the music continues to play. It gets louder and more pulsating as the instruments became more prominent and even overwhelming at times. The music suits the film to perfection because of the frightening atmosphere that it creates.

The program, “Remembering the Story of Italian Americans,” featured Supreme Court Justice Samuel Anthony Alito Jr. Scheduling the event was a good way in not only drawing a large student crowd, but also people from the community. The sponsor should be commended on a job well done in producing a quality program that brings important cultural and intellectual topics to the forefront of discussion. This is successful for several reasons because it enhances the University’s image, provides financial benefits and attracts alumni attention.

It’s important that organizations and clubs continue to do their best in securing top notch figures. Doing this not only enriches students and citizens, but also showcases JCU’s ability to produce the same high quality events as other prestige universities. Also, hosting these prominent societal figures financially ben- efits the University. Prospective students and families are able to “ see how well various clubs on campus work to expose students to top-rated speakers. This in turn can influence students’ decisions to come to JCU. Cartoon by Meredith Snow Alumni who see these organizations working well will be more apt to donate money in order to ensure that events like these will continue. And one more point: Although there has also been criticism of NOTABLE QUOTABLE bringing one more conservative public figure to campus, students and members of the community should keep in mind that above all else, Justice Alito was confirmed to the highest court in the United States. Therefore, his opinions and experiences are worth “I have no problem sitting out to rebuild this listening to.

Although these physical changes will have a positive effect on current and prospective students alike, there is one other thing that should be addressed. Currently, the cafeteria stops serving the main lunch line at 1:30 “ p.m. This means there is no main course available, and students are left to choose from items like cereal or a bagel.
