Twenty years ago, a small community
theatre emerged in Columbia
and quickly joined the ranks of its
neighbors at Town Theatre and USC.
Since that time, Workshop
Theatre, which sits at the corner of
Bull and Senate streets, has consistently
brought some of the best of
old and new theatrical productions in
Columbia. This fall, Workshop kicks
off its 21st season, and the season
promises something for everyone.
Already on the boards is Tennessee
Williams' classic, A Streetcar Named
Desire, which opened Sept. 9 and
runs through Sept. 21. Directed by
David Avin, who has made a life's
devotion out of directing Williams'
work, Streetcar has already received
rave reviews for its opening weekend.

By The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. ? Cartoonist
Gary Larson, whose "The
Far Side" comic appears in more
than 800 newspapers, will take a
14-month break from his work beginning
this fall, his syndicate said
Saturday.
"Even revolutionaries need to
refuel," Universal Press Syndicate
president John McMeel said.
Larson, 38, who lives in Seattle,
will stop distributing new cartoons
Oct. 30 and will begin again Jan. 1,
1990.
Larson, who has said in the past
that he sits down at his drawing table
and "gets silly," is famous for cartoons
about cows that honk at
humans, dinosaurs that smoke and
women with beehive hairdos.
During Larson's hiatus, Universal
Press will distribute more than 1,000

"Selections from this earlier
material will be made available for
the 14-month leave," McMeel said.
During his time off, Larson wants
to rest and travel, said spokeswoman
Diane Galante. She said Larson is on
a trip outside the country.
A collection of Larson's cartoons
organized by the Smithsonian's
Natural History Museum has been
touring U.S. museums the last two
years, and collections of his cartoons
have consistently been on the bestselling
charts.
In 1983, another Universal Press
cartoonist, Garry Trudeau, took a
21-month leave from his
"Doonesbury" strip to update his
characters and work on a Broadway
play.
