Dancing: Dances have Indian origin ■ Continued from Page 7A years old. The workshop, however, is usually held only once or twice a year and is de signed primarily for adults. The cost of the workshop is $15 in advance and $20 at the door. Participants should wear clothes suitable for dancing, such as harem pants with a short top, and should bring ob jects to balance, including bas kets or small trays. Tradition al dance attire, such as tights and leotards, are not usually worn in belly dancing. “The origins of this type of belly dancing are in India, by tribal groups in the Rajastan region of Northwest [India],” Theora said. “It's a very old art form. I know that the Univer sity of Oregon has a large dance department. If someone has experience with other types of dance and wants to learn more, this is a great op portunity.” After the performance, ven dors will be present to sell cos tumes, balancing objects, scarves and an assortment of other belly dancing items. Theora also runs Theora’s Belly Dance Boutique, which sells clothing and accessories. For more information about the workshop, contact Theora at 342-6833.

The magic of ‘Dreamcoat’ By Felicity Ayles Freelance Reporter Andrew Lloyd Webber’s “Joseph and the Amazing Tech nicolor Dreamcoat” is coming to the Hult Center for the Thanks giving holiday. The touring production will be in Eugene throughout Thanksgiv ing week, and everyone will have the chance to experience a typi cal Broadway production. The Theater League of Eugene and Magicworks Entertainment, the producers of the show, have de cided to extend the original run by three performances. The story of “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dream coat” is biblical in origin. It is the story of Jacob and his twelve sons, his favorite being Joseph. Ja cob shows his favoritism toward Joseph by giving him a coat of many colors, which makes Joseph’s brothers very jealous. The brothers sell him into slav ery, but he finds his way to the wealthy Potifar, and his real pow ers are exposed. Joseph turns out to be a gifted individual able to interpret dreams and predict cat astrophes. Linda Sanders, publicist for the show, calls it a “kaleidoscope of song and dance.” As with many of his other suc cessful musicals, Webber teamed up with Tim Rice to write the music and lyrics for “Joseph.” This was the first musical they wrote together, with Webber as the composer and Rice as the lyri cist. Rice also wrote lyrics for such Disney film soundtracks as "The Lion King” and "Aladdin.” Tickets are available at the Hult Center and through local ticket outlets. Prices for the Monday, Tuesday and Friday perfor mances range from $17.50 to $35, and Wednesday performances cost between $12.50 and $27.50. “Bring the entire family to see this national touring produc tion,” Sanders said.
