Effl Theatre My Review New touch on 'Romeo' drama brings success Shakespeare would have been shocked and most likely, pleased. In the modern production of "Romeo and Juliet" by the USC Department of Theatre, Speech and Dance, Romeo wears Levi's, and his cohorts are bedecked in combat boots. Strangely enough, the wailing sirens and gun-bearing guards seem appropriately placed in the 16th century drama. The production is not intended to be a parody. The original text is followed, and while most of the added elements are amusing, their ultimate goal is to help the audience identify with the story. Director Michael Joseph DonIan, a graduate student, has deromanticized the. drama hv emnha sizing the tragic aspects of the story. Donlan's said his adaptation seeks to show that "young love is not as perfect and as G-Rated as we would like to imagine; it is at best a slow and painful release of ego." - There is a lot going on in this production. It is nerveracking and powerful, beautiful and disturbing. Reinforced is the oddity of love, the one emotion capable of bringing joy or wreaking complete havoc. The play is an antithesis to Thomas Moore's assertion that "there is nothing so sweet in life as love's young dream." There is an absolute hellish side of love we would much rather not see. USC's production is not only creative and thought provoking but also superb theatrically. The cast members give heartfelt performances, and the technical crew provides a perfect atmosphere. Their combined efforts have made this experiment quite successful. "Romeo and Juliet" will run through Jan. 26 at Longstreet Theatre. Few tickets remain. For more information, call 777-2551.

Dr. Rathbun playing with his ski By LISA FAUST Staff Writer When people first enter the third floor of USC's Hamilton College, they might feel as though they've left the campus and entered a den. A "No Whining" sign hangs on an office door. Just inside lies a hodge-podge of articles with no unifying theme. And then there are the little plastic Halloween skulls. Enter Dr. Ted Rathbun's office. The 50-year-old professor teaches a primates, peoples and prehistory class, a forensic anthropology class and a human osteology class. Peoples, primates, and prehistory is usually a large class, permitting little student-professor interaction, he said. The other class is often small and allows more interaction between the teacher and student, he kinko's the copy center Epf Fried Green Tomatoes^; y Km pG-13 1-05 4;c>5 7:15 10:00 M HP Grand Canyon fltSV R 1:15 4:10 7:00 9:55 I If The Hand That Rocks The Cradle 111 i;iy R 1:2? 4:2l,O 7:20 10:10 /|| If The Prince of Tides! 1 R 1:10 4:00 7:00 9:50 A Mf k Hook id PG 1:25 4:15 7:05 9:50 M feJ r m m 1:00 4:35 8:15 M W ;:;C R 1:30 4:25 7.15 9:45 E I ?? ^Smpus ' SSL.?
