The JSU Drama department presented their One Act Festival and Student Showcase on April 4th and 5th. The showcase included eight ten-minute scenes, each directed and performed by JSU students. The showcase opened with Nothing Seri- ous by Rich Orloff. This scene featured Haley Baker and Jake Lewis, and was directed by Ansley Gayton. Baker is a senior majoring in Psychology and is scheduled to graduate in May. Lewis is a freshman. Gayton is a Theat- rical Production major, set to graduate in May. Nothing Serious was a funny scene about two people getting married, or “making the big- gest mistake of [their] lives…together.” The next act was a complete change of pace. Lawrence Mason, a junior Theatre Per- formance major from Dallas, TX, presented his take on William Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar. Anika Corsi, a senior Theatre Perfor- mance major, shined as Brutus, while Brooke Elam, also a senior drama major, wowed the audience as Cassius. Following Julius Caesar was Almost, Maine, written by John Cariani and directed by Chloe Barnes. The scene was a cute love story about two friends, performed by Dean- na Blancher and Chandler Tarvin. Barnes, the director, is a junior studying Theatre Perfor- mance. Blancher is a music major, and Tarvin is majoring in English. Next up was Tennessee Williams’s This Property is Condemned, directed by senior music major Sam Eddy. This classic scene starred Kenli Doss and Mason Ward, both sophomores. Doss is majoring in English, while Ward is a Theatre Production major.

The Chanticleer April 11, 2019 5 Arts & Entertainment FILM REVIEW Iron Man is still the best marvel movie Devin Carter A&E Writer

We are just over two weeks from Avengers: Endgame being released, and Marvel once again taking the country (and, dare I say, the world). I know it has not been released yet, but here is a spoiler: It’s going to be a pretty darn good movie.

I can say that because Marvel has won. Through the usage of some voo- doo magic, they have managed to crack the movie-making code. They can roll movies out as if they were made on an assembly line, take home enormous amounts of revenue from the box office, and somehow keep their content high-quality and as- tonishingly consistent. I will be the first to admit that I think it’s all a bit much- and, to be honest, I grew sort of tired of the Marvel hype years ago. But the reality of the situation is that these movies seem here to stay. Mar- vel has been pumping out movies for a decade now, and mere fads do not last that long. Marvel, and to an even greater extent, Disney, holds the en- tire box office in the palm of its hand.

But there used to be a time when that was not the case. The numerous details involved in the production of their first film, Iron Man, are too often overlooked and under-appreci- ated. And it’s hard to blame us- after all, that was ten years and what, like, 25 movies ago? But let’s mention just a couple of the risks that Marvel took in making their first film. For start- ers, they decided to launch their stu- dio with Iron Man who, while popu- Marvel Studios lar, was nowhere near the popularity most positive degree, and how one than most others. of their bigger characters.

There are no re- flective surfaces on the island and no on can communicate with each other other than the leader to the residents. No one on the island knows how many of each eye color there is. Everyone on the island is a perfect logician, meaning that if there us a solution they’ll find it. Every morning the leader gives any- one a chance to leave the island by guessing their eye color. One morning, the leader gathers all 200 residents to make an announcement, he says “at least 1 person on this island has blue eyes”.
