Sally Fields, Martin Sheen, Carol Burnett, Elliot Gould, Far- rah Fawcett, Julie Harris: names on a movie marquee which can cause lines to wrap around the block; an appearance on televi sion can make the Nielson rat ings skyrocket. They are accomplished stars who don't need to beg for scripts, let alone travel to a tiny town on Florida's east coast to find work. But they come any way — to act and teach — and most of it is due to the theater's namesake and sometimes dire ctor, Burt Reynolds. Sheen and Adrienne Barbeau recently had a four-week run of Ken Kesey's “One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest," Sheen's third appearance at Reynolds' theater. The comic character role of Randle P. McMurphy gave him a chance to shed the “tor tured man with a mission" im age he had as Captain Willard in “Apocalypse Now" and John Dean in “Blind Ambition." “One of my problems is that I don't always know where there's a laugh. I don't have a great sense of comedy, and Burt has a tremendous sense. I've al ways played heavies, heavy emotional stuff," said Sheen. He said the courage of trying something new, risking failure, pervades the creative atmos phere Reynolds has established in his theater. Sheen said he only returns to the stage for two men: New York Shakespeare Festival's Joseph Papp and Reynolds. “Burt's idea is to gather peo ple for a community type profes sional theater and take risks. It means sticking your neck out.

If you're not willing to make mis takes, you're never going to grow," Sheen said. After his phenomenal string of major motion picture hits, it would be easy for Reynolds to take it easy. But Reynolds says he has a deep desire and com mitment to be “constantly stretching myself — to grow." It is that commitment to his craft which has led him to direct 18 plays, including Sheen and Julie Kavner in “Two For The Seasaw." Barbeau, who has been fea tured in the movies “The Fog" and “Escape from New York," is better known for her role as Carol in television's “Maude" series. She said she is really more in terested in doing movie work than appearing -on stage, but Sheen and Reynolds, lured her to Jupiter for the role as the cool ly wretched Nurse Rached. “I think that what (Reynolds) did for me was to cast me in the first place. Burt had a feeling that this would be something I would do well. Most people think of me and think, 'Oh, Carol on 'Maude,'" she said. Farrah Fawcett made her de but at the theater in "Butterflies Are Free." Singer-songwriter Jim Staf ford made his stage debut at the theater starring in "Robber Bridegroom." The theater offers an appren tice program in connection with a $1 million endowed chair at Florida State University, Reynolds' alma mater. About 20 aspiring actors and actresses, all graduates of Florida colleges, audition in April for a spot in the apprentice program at the Burt Reynolds Institute for Theater and keep up with their required classwork. Most of the students earn their masters degree while participating in the program. 2 FOR 1 NIGHT! 6:00-9KH> p.m. SUNDAY Free Admission with Cowboy Hat!!!
