WEDUL Two student-directed one-act plays were performed last week in UCSB’s Old Little Theatre with mixed results. Ravenswood, an expensive retreat for troubled relationships, is a one-act play written by Terrence Mc­ Nally that stands alone — set off by humorous originality. Competently directed by David Holmes, the play distinguishes itself with many entertaining charac­ terizations. Kurt Braunreiter, as Jason Pepper, M.D. creates an arrogant, cynical character. His full-on attack of con­ ventionality gives him an interesting outlook on life. If it feels good, do it. Dr. Pepper’s patients enjoy alcohol and arguing, Dr. Pepper enjoys alcohol and arguing. With his outspoken personality, Dr. Jason completely assumes that, “I’m a f*epper, you would like to be a Pepper, too.” Still thirsty for humor? Bring Otto, Dr. Pepper’s German aide into the act. Otto makes drinks and simultaneously tries to mix it up with any one of the guests. “Un rubdown for ze frauline?” always receives a negative response. Replies from the gentleman guests are never as frigid — Otto melts their hearts, something their wives haven’t done for years. One couple found at Ravenswood for that very reason is the Scupps. Dolly Scupp has had a deathwish for her husband since Labor Day weekend, 1973. Well, hello Dolly! Harry Scupp, with his aversion to disorder, tends to annoy Dolly with eccentric behavior. Not everyone is blessed with a husband who straightens all the license plates in the parking lot! Harry Scrupp is a pet-peeve monster and Dolly’s only goal in life is to destroy the monster in her long- lost pet. “Ball, ball — who the &*-# has my ball?” Obviously a lost tennis ball can really bring out the beast in Roy Pitt. Mark L. Isenburg creates a comical SoCal casual image por­ traying this Hollywood bigot who must want marriage soley for a social image at cocktail parties. April Pitt, a self- centered character comes alive with Lori Franklin’s personality. This relationship certainly doesn’t soar and circumstances are just the Pitt’s. Hiram and Francis, a male couple comically portrayed by Loren Rogers and Greg Hubbard respectively, seem victims of circumstances beyond their control. Francis, sporting a yellow bathrobe accessorized with matching slippers, goggles and swimcap, resembles an embryo. The fact that these two can’t live without each other yokes them as quite a couple, a couple that wants life over-easy. While Ravenswood had star-quality due to superior ac­ ting complimented by an entertaining script, the second one-act, A Virgil o f B ees written by Susan Stewart Potter, was just another face in the crowd. Efficiently directed by Margaret Solow, this play was a quiet contrast to Raven­ sw ood’s fanfare, sobering the audience with a less in­ toxicating performance. Meredith, played by Terry Ross, sees injustice everywhere and assumes a defeatist personality. This attitude comes from seeing her sister Amelia cope with the death of her child. Cecilia Koumas portrays a tender, forgiving Amelia. Husband Andy, played by John B. Derby provides support and a father figure. Other notable per­ formances were Megan Potter as Eudora, Laura Jean Cleere as Nana, Sharon Greer as Mother and Dylan Brown as the Boy Child. This play showed that some people would rather fight than switch. 4A Wednesday, November 24, 1982 Daily Nexus Palin Reserved, Dignified By PETER LEFEVRE quickly.)

In this film, however, Palin is reserved questionable activity. and straightforward, which makes for a larger range of Charles Fortescue (Palin) is the object of sexual at­ comic opportunities at a deeper level. traction for nearly every woman in the film, while This is not to say the film doesn’t have its fair share of justifying and giving respectability to his hyperactive slapstick. Hardly a piece of baggage in the film isn’t dropped at one point or another, but most of the humor in the film is due to the plot and the characters; a good sign that the movie was not made for laughs alone but to tell a stroy that happens to be funny, in addition to being in­ teresting. As the missionary, Palin is proper, dignified and moral while constantly proving to streetwalkers that, “Yes, Virginia, there do exist decent men.” That he does so in the PIPES GIFTS only way a streetwalker can understand is a minor point. 1983 CALENDARS CLOVE CIGS Most priceless about his performance is his innocent, put- RUCK ART upon manner as demand after demand is made of him.

Once the improbablitiy of a priest being assigned to such a task is overcome, the movie takes on a very entertaining Jump to the Beat quality; unchallenging, but well performed and visually beautiful.

Only thé pit separating the stage from 914 SANTA BARBARA STREET the audience prevented him from his classic hand-shaking on “Love is the Answer. ” In general, the show was great especially in view of Rundgren’s apparent stepdown from the group-leader role. Although he remains spokesman for Utopia, keyboardist P^eirtingJtoKOanieif and drummer Willie Wilcox seem to share equal billing with Todd and Kasim. This comraderie came across during the show and helped to make it as good a show as it was. Even more than this was the relationship between the band and the audience, a little more involved SILVER CORNET BAND than other shows. Unfortunately, the Arlington doesn’t lend IN THEIR ROUSING PERFORMANCE OF itself to audience dancing so the crowd instead was in­ volved in various hand-claps and sing-alongs (no this Hometown Christmas wasn’t a revivalist meeting).

His heart filled with good will, Ziggy never suspects We're Looking the Santa operation is masterminded by a money-hungry old miscreant. Oblivious to the deviousness of his employer, his derelict fellow Santas, and the trickery of a pickpocket, For A Few Ziggy works conscientiously at this collection. Only Fuzz is aware of the conniving around them. The Santa ring is exposed and a police round-up brings in Special Women... every fake Santa on the street except Ziggy. Followed by a dogged cop, who is determined to jail “the little guy,” and by the pickpocket, who badly wants the cash in Ziggy’s kettle, our unknowing hero is unaware he is even being pursued and proceeds to spend Christmas Eve doing good deeds. If You're A Woman In a deft and marvelous final scene, Ziggy reveals his gift as his ability to reconcile the cynical cop and hardened Seeking A Successful Career pickpocket to the joy of giving.
