The three one-act plays, written by student Rich Burroughs, were based on various types of power that peo ple employ over one another. The first work, the title play, was a poignant drama involving a husband/student and wife/provider whose relationship is stressed due to the roles each is assuming. A power struggle en sues, first verbal and intellectual, then physical and violent, and each discovers the Achilles heel (or other appropriate anatomy) to dominate the other. The per formances by Shelly Kiser and Michael Sheets were dynamic; the play was pointed and well written and the strong language was not inappropriate. “Past History,” the second of the trilogy, was in a futuristic set ting and dealt with teacher/stu- dent relationships. In this com edic work, Shelly Kiser portrayed the pedant Mrs. Wickeder and Andrew Garrettson and Rich Burroughs were the two naughty students who got their revenge. Though some of the lines were hilarious, overall the play was a little too silly. In “The Playwright,” the title character, played strongly by An drew Garrettson, struggles with himself and with the personae he is attempting to develop in his good-vs-evil play. His hero, Perseus (whom the writer calls “Percy,” much to the dismay of Perseus) appears and the battle begins: ‘Percy’ asserting his dominance as an immortal character and The Playwright fencing with his mighty pen. The villain, Brutus (dubbed* ‘Bob’ by The Playwright) materializes as a character without personality, and the struggle continues over the issues of plagiarism, hero worship, and identity. Michael Sheets contributed another powerful performance as Perseus - this actor has potential - and Ira Michael Russell, who also directed the production, did a good job of looking confused as ‘Bob.’ Rich Burroughs shows some real promise as a playwright. His plots were imaginative, the dialogue clever, and the stories well developed. The Clackamas thespians are a multi-talented bunch of students who are a delight to see on stage.
