Weekend Preview
Bergman’s ‘Magician’ slated tonight
By MARTY WESTERMAN
Of the Emerald
Did you know that some religious groups believe
jiat the weekend I’m about to tell you about has
llready happened? And that the names haven’t
|ven been changed to protect the innocent? And if
hat’s not enough, there are some deja vu freaks
iho believe you’ll remember it all as soon as it
happens. I mean, where have you all been all this
ime? Sitting at home? Wasting your time in
School? Or believing in the wrong things-myths?
Well this weekend, there are certain absolute
lings you can believe without fearing for their
[reracity, to wit: 1) There will be weather; 2) There
yill be studying; 3) There will be things to do and
eople to do them; 4) The earth will continue
Spinning; 5) And Richard Nixon will still be
president come Monday.
As usual this weekend it comes down to finding
your own fun—this column is just here to suggest
somewhere to have your fun at. So when some dude
valks up to you this weekend and asks you,
‘Where’s it at?” (if dudes ask that any more), you
lean say “Right where I am, dad . . . er, dude.”
[Heavy, huh?
So let’s stop wasting time and get into where it’s
[gonna be at.
Ahem. It all starts out as an ethnic weekend but it
[all ends up culture. The annual Native American
Pow Wow opens out at the Fairgrounds on West 13th
tonight at 7. There will be entertainment by and
competition between members of the Siletz, Coyote,
Kiowa, and Yakima tribes and there will probably
be a general camival-faire atmosphere. The Pow
Wow continues tomorrow, beginning at 2 p.m. and
ticket prices run $1.50 for adults, $1 for students,
and 50 cents for children under 12.
From mid-Pacific (Ocean) the Hawaii Club (Hui
O’Kammaina) lays out it’s annual luau, titled “The
Wonderful World of Aloha” (which might sound
familiar to you people who sit in front of the tv
Sunday nights waiting for the hour of Disney) at
6:30 p.m. Saturday. Entertainment and dinner will
run ya $3.50; entertainment only for $1.50. Children
under 8 get in free. This extravaganza will not be
repeated Sunday night.
This afternoon at 12:30 Musical Smorgasbord
turns into Theatre Smorgasbord as members of the
University Theatre Repertory Company preview
three of the shows from their upcoming rep season.
The season opens April 27, so bring your lunch and
watch. It’s free. (Up in the Music School Recital
Hall). _
Darryl Woodson as Shakespear’s Quince.
Beethoven, Brahms, Schubert
Tonight in the same place Hugo Steurer performs
Beethoven, Brahms, and Schubert selections at 8,
also for free.
Down and a little over to the right in Gerlinger
folk dancing resumes at 8 tonight. If you miss out
tonight, you have a choice of returning Sunday night
at 8, or Tuesday night at 8. And if you’re a real
freak, you can come to all of them.
Live entertainment tonight from the Lemming
Players doing two excellent one-act plays—“Molly
Bloom” and “Drapp’s Last Tape.”—tonight in the
Wesley Center Auditorium. Lemmings are a young
theatre group in the University community and they
put on an engrossing show last week when they
opened. Good theatre for a dollar. Curtain time is 8
p.m. The Wesley Center is down Kincaid from the
Co-op, which is toward 13th and over to the right for
you people who are still at Gerlinger.
In the celluloid department tonight in the 180 PLC
Theatre we have Ingmar Bergman’s horror flik
“The Magician.” One showing for one dollar at 7:30.
At 7 and 9:15 in the 150 Science Theatre (it used to
be More Science High Theatre) tonight you can see
an experimental film festival presented by Rejoice.
Buck for admission where you can laugh, cry, be
interested and nauseated, all in one sitting. Better
than any short story.
No films Saturday night except “Last Picture
Show” and “The Godfather” out in the city some
place, and “Mary Queen of Scots,” an historical
film billed as something sexy, at the Mayflower.
Randi Douglas as Joyce’s Molly Bloom.
Spaghetti dinner
Sunday afternoon, on the live entertainment side,
the Eugene Wood and Fuel Co-op is having a no-host
spaghetti dinner from 4-8 p.m. at the Central
Presbyterian Church, 14th and Ferry. $1 for adults,
50 cents for children. Good food.
And Sunday afternoon there are some films to be ;
shown.
Start with Luis Bunnei’s “Tristana.” The public is
invited to a special showing before the Film
Society’s regular shows for its members. The public
show is at 4 and admission is by presentation of one
dollar at the door. Members can get in at either 7 or
9:15 p.m. Show is at the University Theatre.
Then move on to the Bengali film “Mahanagar”
which you can see at 7 p.m. in the 180 PLC Theatre.
Admission is $1.
And don’t forget the Odyssey—tonight, Rocky
Raccoon and Gordon Adams (nobody knows what
they do, but the admission is 50 cents), and Satur
day night Wayne Drury, a folk guitarist and singer
of not only his own original music, but old favorites
too. Admission is 75 cents. Sunday night audition at
8 for Farmer’s Almanac and then dig it as KZEL
broadcasts it live at 10.
Monday we will all be visited by the New
Shakespeare Company from San Francisco. They’ll
perform “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” out
doors—the sky the big top—in Hamilton Quad for
free at 3 p.m. And you can pay a dollar to see them
again at 8p.m. in the EMU Ballroom. The LA Times
described the group as “merely a young, terribly
vital, talented and nutty group of touring actors.”
You might like it. And you probably won’t need Alka
Seltzer afterwards either. It’s relevant theatre, if
you can imagine that with Shakespeare.
Oh, there’s one more absolute thing you can
believe without fearing for it’s veracity. It’s
something I forgot to list before but occurs to me
now—let’s list it as 6) There will be a weekend
preview.
Now there already has been. Try believing the
other five.
