PENDULUM 'POFNTE.RL
"The 'Lesson was the' prime offering of the Pendulum
Players at the jail last° week: -
This fine group of dedicated youngsters certainly have
their difficulties but they seem to triumph over all adversity.
This week's Thursday performance was delayed a short
while due to one of the 'principals being &dere& through the
police traffic safety 'check.
• The thirty-three member audience was treated to 1 'superb
performance§by two' very talented youngsters. "The Lesson"
, written by Eugene Ionesco was directed by Garwood Russell.
Rick Fisher gave an outstanding performance as the
Professor. The part allowed Fisher to portray a full range of
emotions from idiocy to insane infamy and back to infancy.
Rosemary Doorly playing the part' of the doll like student
was a perfect foil. I did not realize there were so many ways
of saying, "I've got a toothache." Her'child-likeemannerisms
and- facial expressions were, faultless.
The third character, the maid, played by Nina Knight, was
- small but important: the infrequent entrances held- the
breath ofimenace and foreboding and for, once the rumbling
of an impending storm and the occasional chill breeze added
• to this feeling of'impending disaster. T orily'wish :Nina could
bring herself to be a• little more serious but no doubt this'will
come. A superb effort that the majority of our good eitizens
missed. •• -
The ' evening ended by an impromptu' mime "by ,Rob
McKeown and, Earl Salter • Extreniely well done but about,
three minutes too long. °' •
