I Federico Garcia Lorca's "The Love of Don Perlimplin with Belisa in His Garden" will send ipur mind on a roller coaster of love and hate. I An arranged marriage between ah older, lovesick man and a young, greedy woman creates a plot that is so deep that discussion is sure to follow. I The play opens with an aged Don Perlimplin (Cory Bland) ar- fjing with his maid, Marcolfa Shannon Smith). Marcolfa is pleading with Perlimplin to marry the young and selfish Belisa (Jen nifer Kinard). I Belisa agrees to Perlimplin's marriage proposal, but only be cause there is power and money involved. I Belisa has earned a reputation for herself by being more than promiscuous. On their wedding night alone, five men visit the newlyweds' bedroom. I Despite her lack of devotion, Perlimplin falls helplessly in love with Belisa and confesses this to his bride on their wedding night. ■ Carelessly, Belisa shrugs off her husband and responds to his confession with a sigh of "so Kyle Burnett/THE Battalion Jennifer Kinard and Mylene Leibrock star in the American Laboratory Theater's production of "The Love of Don Perlimplin with Belisa in His Garden." guatc what?" This lack of interest, however, does not discourage Perlimplin's desire to be loved in return. In order to see Belisa learn to love, Perlimplin takes on the mind of a young man. The remainder of the play be comes a struggle for Perlimplin against love of the body and love of the soul. Incredible symbolism is.scat tered throughout the play. Half of the fun is trying to figure out the meaning behind the words. For those who enjoy the per sonal touch, the Fallout Theater is for you. Seating a maximum of 50 people, the theater provides a def inite, up-close experience. Behind the scenes of this unique production is the Ameri can Laboratory Theater.- The company consists of ten dedicated students who create the play from top to bottom. Each play is entirely a student produc tion and offers the company mem bers a very well-rounded educa tion. Dr. Oscar Giner, head of the theater arts department, estab lished the company in the fall of 1992 to encourage students to cre ate their own American theater identity. For this reason, the American Laboratory Theater brings primar ily American playwrights, mostly of Hispanic and Native American backgrounds, to its stage. Because each production is en tirely student-produced, the play's impression is even stronger. Strong acting perfor mances will guarantee the mem bers of the company a promising future. These student actors and actresses will completely amaze you. And despite its most unlikely location, the Fallout Theater just may be Blocker's best kept secret. Mi Bargain Matinee Sat. & Sun.

Buti mce on y singed Gershwin's 'Porgy and Bess' comes to Rudder By Jennifer Gressett The Battalion ■ George Gershwin's American masterpiece, "Porgy and Bess," will bring a taste of South Caroli na to Rudder Auditorium tonight. I This one-night performance Has come to Aggieland as part of a 1 a | |three-month tour of the United States and Canada, originating in j Charleston, S.C., where the story of Porgy was conceived. I Based on the novel by Dubose Heyward, "Porgy and Bess" is a love story which takes place among a handfull of poor black fishermen and gamblers. Al though Heyward wrote the origi nal "Porgy," it was his collabora tion with the famed Gershwin that has audiences and critics across America talking about their opera, "Porgy and Bess." 1 "Combine the marvelous songs and the intriguing storyline with the conventions of opera, and you get a musical like no other, an American original," critic Julie Kistler said. i Presented by the Living Arts, Inc., of New York City, this pro duction of "Porgy and Bess" will include a cast of outstanding op eratic singers from all over the United States. Perhaps the most notable feature of this ensemble is the consistent role rotation of the main characters. "The idea that there are two other, equally talented Porgys 5 trade® from thef in stage;! Is.

While three singers — Eliza beth Graham, Roberta Laws and Vanessa Stewart — will alternate as Bess, three more — William Marshall, Andre Solomon-Glover and Alvy Powell — will alternate the role of Porgy. Directed by Will Roberson, as sistant director for the Houston Grand Opera's Paris tour, the pro duction will feature the Charleston Symphony Orchestra. Led by music director David Stahl, the orchestra is one of the leading arts organizations in the Southeast, and has become a mu sical compliment to "Porgy and Bess." Favorite tunes in the pro duction such as, "It Ain't Neces sarily So," "I Got Plenty O' Nut- tin'," and "Bess, You Is My Woman," will bring to life the physical and emotional connec tion between Porgy and Bess. Aggieland is invited to join the cast on "Catfish Row" tonight. The performance will begin at 8 p.m. in Rudder Auditorium.
