“Positions of Dominance,”
written, produced and staged last
week by Clackamas Community
College drama students, was a
showcase of talent for the theater
department. 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.
