These speeches are delivered not to each other, but to the audience Presumably we are listening to these characters' thoughts as they reminisce on the sixties and what those times meant to them. Wanda, played by Jo Rockower, is an office worker whose consciousness began with the assassination of John F. Kennedy in 1963. All of her speeches have to do with Kennedy, his wife, the golden dream of Camelot, the short lived Kennedy administration and what the man might have done had he lived Rockower, who doesn’t get up from her table for the entire play, delivered all of her speeches in a quiet, restrained manner with a certain conviction, especially when she talks about her memories of the day Kennedy was shot and in her later sadness about the dream gone awry (Is there anyone, past the age of 10 in 1963, who doesn't remember exactly what they were doing that day? It's an interesting little below-the-surface connection we all seem to share.) "People still care," she says, "they just get all mixed up." Wanda also has a great speech in which she tells of a dream she had in which Kennedy shoots his assassin Aseneth James as Rona, the protes ter, also has some stunning moments. Rona has gone the route from the early civil rights marches in the south, through drugs, through Gandhi and passive resistance, through Chairman Mao, through the life on the barricades during the Vietnam War, to the Chicago riots, Woodstock, and Kent State James is quite convincing both as the revolutionary idealist in the beginning and as the disillusioned but nonetheless hopeful realist she becomes One would have to understand the former in order to believably portray the latter; James does She also understands the sort of selective moral blindness of the Ronas of the world The type of person who does volunteer work in a drug rehabilitation center during the day and sells speed on the street at night to make ends meet, "at the lowest pos sible prices," of course Another completely convincing portrayal was given by Barry Pitzer as Mark, a perpetually stoned-out, possi bly shell-shocked, and potentially quite dangerous mixed-up veteran of Vietnam Mark is a pressure cooker The lid's still on, but the force is building up Watching Pitzer's skill in showing us how the wheels slowly turned in this man's mind to enable him to say things like "I must love everybody and I must kill the men who come out of the jungle at me every day and every night," is an experience not soon forgotten His final speech, about his intentions, produced an audible shudder through the room Less convincing, although still effective, were David Johnston as Sparger, a gay underground theatre actor, and Carol Shuherk as Carla, a failed sex goddess with a Marilyn Mon roe fixation Both actors seemed to be hard hit by a case of opening night nerves, a con dition which should dissipate with subsequent performances They both had warmed up somewhat by Act II. "Kennedy's Children” is a disturbing stroll through a particularly troubled time. The production has a few problems, but it also has several very powerful moments It's worth seeing for those who know the sixties and for those who should "Kennedy's Children" plays again Nov 14, 15. 21 and 22 at 7:30 p m in Aunt Lucy Devine’s Wine Loft, on the corner of 13th and Alder Tickets are $3 50, 50 cents of which is discounted from the first drink ordered As seating is very limited, reservations are a good idea and Martha Maxwell and soprano Exine Bailey Beall Concert Hall 4 p m $2 general, free for students, senior citizens, and children under 12 Pieces by Otten, Thomas, de Falla.
