A Big Night
Continued from Page 1B
Next is the name of the
current Midnight Mafia offering.
It is, like all Midnight Mafias, an
hour-long one-act comedy,
designed to put a jovial spark
into your evening’s life. Next
doesn’t really fail in this, for it
does have an overall uplifting
effect. But, as far as Midnight
Mafia productions go, I’ve seen
better.
The scene is an examining
room in an army induction
center, the time "the near fu
ture.” The dialogue begins,
quite appropriately, with one
Sgt. Thech (Kathy Neal) calling
"Next!’’ to an as yet unseen
character offstage. Presently a
hapless middle-aged Marion
Cheever (Brian Swingle)
stumbles onstage, looking as
lost as a babe in the woods.
"There must be some mistake,"
is about as much as he can say.
It's obvious there has been a
computer error which has
called up his name for military
service, but there’s nothing
Cheever can do to convince the
entirely indifferent Sgt. Thech of
the mistake.
The resulting drama is all too
predictable — nothing mediocre
on the part of the acting or dir
ecting (both of which are
superb), but more on the part of
the story itself. It was written in
the late 60’s, but director
Terrence McNally has
attempted to adapt it to
the ominous present-to
near-future. Thus the
play comes across not only
as a scenario that once was, but
also what very well might be
wm&Mbw.

It
again. The prospect of another
draft era is a chilling thought
indeed, and the illumination of
this is perhaps the best facet of
Next.
But in the Midnight Mafia
tradition, the play has a light,
energetic spirit, and so is very
well worth going to see. And, in
terms of our “night out on the
town," an enjoyable thing to do
after the previous hours of
drinking and carousing.
As if absorbing spirits and
drama wasn’t enough for one
night, we were now compelled
to seek out an eating
establishment to fulfill the story
requirement. We had to find a
place that served relatively
decent food, not merely a 7-11
“junk-out orgy" (we would
never do that anyway — at least,
not anymore).
But it was 1:30 in the morning.
What decent food can be had at
such a bewitching hour?
Lenny’s Nosh Bar, in the Cour
tyard seemed a good place to
try.
Now, the word “Nosh" is both
a noun and a verb. It is as true to
say Mickey and I went to
Lenny’s to “have a Nosh” as
well as “to get noshed," or “to
nosh something.” Or so Mickey
informed me on the way over. In
any case, Lenny’s has a special
Nosh that one can “nosh" late
at night — the four-egg
omelette.
Oh, to nosh again until 3 a m
In a word (or two): we ordered
two Noshes, noshed them when
they came to the table, and
became noshed after we fin
ished. Our Noshes were two
omelettes, one with cheese, the
other with chicken curry — both
of them extremely well-crafted,
and served by some of the most
pleasant folks ever encountered
in a Eugene restaurant. And
what a lively spot at such a late
hour! Outside it may have been
the somber hour of 2:30, but
inside Lenny’s there was as
much life as if it were noon.
Being "noshed”, though, is
no enviable state to be in. That's
a lot of food to eat at such an
hour — I couldn’t roll over in bed
(for fear of noshing?)
afterwords.
And so the Big Night was
over. The cost? A scant $20
between the two of us. And, of
course, the additional cost of
suffering the "beached whale”
syndrome upon awakening late
in the afternoon, and thus miss
ing out on what was, I think, a
beautiful sunny day of hiking
and climbing, and drinking wine
on Spencer’s Butte.
