LINCOLN, NEBRASKA 68501 In Aggie Players Production Acting, Sets Don’t Raise Level Of 6 The Lower Depths’ THE BATTALION Thursday, March 20, 1969 College Station, Texas Page 3 Bulletin Board WORK (Continued From Page 1) so violent, even at this stage. It increases the trauma for the whole country. The violence is so bad at this point, I just worry where it’s going to end.” “You’ve been talking about stu dent rebellion,” said Dick Horner, an A&M student who happened by. “What do you do about a professor who browbeats the stu dents with his political ideas and you either agree or you fail ? ” “DROP THE course,” Luce joked. “Other than that, you could distribute papers against him, telling what he is teaching in class. The chairman of the de partment should be informed of student feelings. Some way could be found where someone sits down with this guy and tells him you object to the way he teaches without any class objec tion allowed.” Before leaving, Luce had ovp final observation to make about A&JM: “You need more women around here, man.” By JANIE WALLACE Despite some brilliant acting and excellent sets, “The Lower Depths” is a slow-moving, boring flop. If you need to fulfill an English 203 assignment, the curtain rises at 8 p.m. in Guion Hall until Saturday. But don’t get there early. Background information for “The Lower Depths” includes the following: “Under the original title of ‘At the Bottom of Life,’ (it) is a parable of life and bares the truth and shows the value of illusion to men and women whose lives seem to have no worth or meaning.” The story conveys Gorki’s feel ing effectively without help from the actors. Centering around a traveling old man, the cramped boarders of a cold, damp base ment, who are ex-convicts, yell, quarrel, fight and scream at each other throughout the play. Luka, the old man, tries to help each character shake off the chains of squalor and rise up in the world with a “fresh start.” James Den nis’ Luka is excellent—his man nerisms, his makeup (although his hands are forgotten), and his speech makes Dennis a very con vincing Luka. IN THIS drama, the young lovers do not receive a happy ending. First, Peppel is a thief and Vassilisa’s lover. Vassilisa is the wife of the landlord and Natasha’s sister. Peppel is in love with Natasha, but Natasha is afraid to run off with him be cause of her sister’s beating. Then the plot thickens. Vas- silissa offers Natasha and money to Peppel if he kills her husband. Of course, he refuses. But by accident, the husband is killed by Peppel and the lovers are sep arated, one to Siberia and the other disappearing from a hos pital (Vassilisa’s beatings were rough). A few faults of the perform ance: The blocking had actors upstaging each other right and left; facial expressions and hand gestures lacked credibility; tim ing was inconsistent, with some cues pounced upon and others followed by thoughtful pauses; and there was no strong central characterization, only a conglom erate of mediocre ones. THE COSTUMES were more or less eclectic. The Russian men were dressed like Russian men of the period; the women were dressed in modern outfits. Other technical aspects were excellent, except for one flaw: How could TONIGHT Texas A&M Sports Car Club will meet at 7:30 p.m. in room 107 of the Military Science Build ing.

Some of the performances, in ascending order of effectiveness, were those of: • Lucy Bishop, as a wishful prostitute who gives her money to the Baron, although he never believes her adventures and ridi cules her at every possible mo ment. • John Friedrick as the Baron (“a pompous ass”), a Russian aristocrat who sounds British. • Thomas Emshoff as the Actor, who becomes more and more convincing as the action of the play unfolds. • Marc Fleishman as Peppel. He takes command of his role after the beginning scenes and develops a strong character to become part of the triangle of actors that hold the play to gether. • Ruth Reeves as Vassilisa, whose cutting remarks and vicious actions leaves no doubt in the audience’s mind that she is truly a “vixen” and a “bitch,” as Peppel describes her. • Carl Masterson as Kostylev, who is superb. His gestures, speech are parts that mold his fine characterization of a mean, miserly landlord.
