But to produce a revue of his songs that does justice to the originals requires an impecable timing mixed with understated, razor-sharp delivery. The first half of the show, presented at Seymour’s Restaurant on the Downtown Mall, reminded me of a bad movie from a good book. It was stiff and lacked believability. The spoken in tros from Ufhrer's records were reproduced ver hatum, with an attempt at the same staeato delivery. The actors came across stiff and heavy. Many of the laughs were due to the songs themselves and not tin; performance. A bass and piano pro vided the musical accompaniment, but the bass was so soft that I wondered if it was merely a prop The lighting throughout was so obvious that between every skit I was painfully aware of it. The audience was packed with people who were apparently the cast’s friends as they came ready to howl, and sometimes a moment too soon. However, the thing that detracted most from the show was the apparent youth of a couple of the actors. Richard Gray did a nostalgic, song about Harvard, and he looked like he barely graduated high school. And in “She's My Girl," his gestures and posturing were excellent, but Sinatra he ain't.’ Not yet. anyway. But it’s not fair to completely tackle a com edy on opening night. Toward the end of the set they appeared more at ease and barreled through the rest of the skits with passion, confidence, and finese. In "VVernher Von Braun" Kathleen Adams, Linda l^Jtts. and Carolyn Magoon gave a strong vocal performance. This trio was stunning and delightful in all their subsequent numbers. Maybe it was the second bloody mary kicking in. but the second half of the show was a pleasure. The cast lost their tentative deliveries and interacted more with the audience. The vocals, weak and reedy in the first half, became strong and resonant. The timing clicked, and they made good use of anticipation and rests. In "I Hold Your Hand In Mine." Jonathan Mansfield imbued a heart-shaped box of candy Continued on Page 4B Children better read than seen ‘’Children of a I-esser (»od." now playing in Villard Hall’s Arena Theater is the story of Sarah Norman and James Dseds, a deaf woman and her speech instructor in a school for the deaf. The drama raises the intriguing question of whether a "handicap" is necessarily a disadvan tage. Debbie Duron plays Sarah Norman, a 26-year-old deaf woman who still lives at the school for the deaf and works as a maid. Sarah refuses to learn to speak and will com municate only with sign language. She is a very proud woman, and is worried about the way she will look if she tries to speak. Mark Kuntz plays James I^eeds. a young, former college radical who has come to the school to teach the deaf how to speak. He is in troduced to Sarah and is dumbfounded to learn that she has no desire to learn to speak. James begins to doubt his own motives as a teacher, meanwhile he is trying to learn more about Sarah so he can convince her to learn to speak. Instead, he falls in love with her individuality. The script of "Children” contains enough in teresting twists and enough clever and funny dialogue to be entertaining. But it would be more enjoyable reading the script on a cold, rainy even ing alone by a fireplace, than it would be seeing it performed on stage. Not that the performance is less than fine. The University Theatre “Second Season” presen tation. directed by Nancy Larsen, is fine, but the challenge of producing this play is minimal Nothing is gained by seeing actors on a stage tell the story of Sarah Norman, over reading the story Continued on Page 4B quietly crashing, green cathedrals crowned with clouds submit to the blade. — Linda Hahn Forest ‘cathedrals’ honored He can echo the sound of howling wolves with his saxophone, use whales as backup musicians, and imitate the wind. Paul Winter, who has performed his improvisa tional "earth music" everywhere from the Taj Mahal and the Grand Canyon to St. John's Cathedral, is now set to play another kind of cathedral — Pyramid Creek, a forest area east of Sweet Home off Hwy. 20. Environmentalists, including the Cathedral Forest Action Group (CFAG). consider the SOO-mile forest that extends from California's northern red woods to Washington to make up one large "cathedral" of old-growth trees. CFAG invited Winter and Friends, to the Third Annual Memorial Day Gathering which will include music by eight groups, workshops on old-growth forests and hikes through the area. Workshops will focus on forest ecology, civil disobedience, edible plants and wildflowers. The guided hikes will provide information on zoning and on "who controls the land." says Mary Beth Nearing, a CFAG member. Performances include a varied group of environmentally-conscious musicians including Eugene's Liv and Let Live, and Oregon artists Don Skinner. Cecelia Ostrow, Sunny McHale Skyedancer.). Cristian Miller and Linda Schierman. Jim Scott, former composer and guitarist with the Paul Winter Consort will reunite with Winter after touring Central America with Holly Near. Vic LightSmith. a dramatist, will perform works of con temporary women writers. All music and speakers will be on Sunday while workshops and guided hikes will begin on Saturday. Monday will be a day of hiking. The gathering can be found by going east on Hwy. 126 and then turning west onto Hwy. 20 at the Salem/Albany junction before Sisters. Head toward Sweet Home on Hwy. 20 and then turn right onto Forest Service Rd. 2041 |ust past Mountain House. Pyramid Creek is down this service road on the left. A $4 donation will be accepted.

Kim Wilson's bold vocals and sensuous harp solos kept the audience in a delirious frenzy of delight. The only thing that marred the Fabulous 0+ ..
