Ouice & Qaoa the real squeeze on campus located in Esslinger Hall Need another reminder? ODE online has it all: news, sports, classifieds, ODE archives, reader polls and even the weather. Stage-lovers have options at UO ■ Student, faculty have three venues to view University performances By Sara Jarrett Oregon Daily Emerald Tomorrow’s stars can be seen on three University stages — to day. Each with a different feel, one will surely please. Robinson Theatre’s 1999-2000 season marks its 50th anniver sary. The University’s main stage is located at the northwest comer of campus near Villard Hall, and it offers the most professional pro ductions of the three. Purchasing a season pass gives you first choice of seats. You can also buy freedom-pack vouchers that can be redeemed for plays at any time or buy tickets individu ally for each show. The Arena Theatre, located in Villard Hall at 1109 Old Campus Lane, is a theater-in-the-round, which is its biggest asset. The 1999-2000 season lineup of “Sec ond Season” plays will showcase graduate students in the Universi ty’s Department of Theater Arts. The third student venue — and probably where you’ll find the most innovative and daring works — is at the Pocket Theater, also lo cated in Villard Hall. This space is small, intimate and only costs $1. Such a plethora of students want use of this area that a draw ing is held at the beginning of each term to accommodate the de mand in the most fair way possi ble. You cap find a different show every weekend, usually with Thursday-Saturday runs. Remember, anything goes on this stage.
