'Anything Goes'? Yes,but qfter slow stort

by RichrrdJohaeonSt¡trntÌitcr

Before getting into the detailson what I liked or disliked about'"Anyt\ing Gogs," the show nowplaying at Roler Rrrcka's GoodCompuy Music Hall, I feel itonly fair to mention that, before Ieven entered the building, thissho'¡ ]¡¿d three thinç --going

.sainst it.

First, I was reall¡r spoiled by"Side By Side By Sondheim"(Sondheim rates No. 2 as one ofthe best shows I've seen inFresno, the first being"Godspell" ¿t Fresno St¿te.)

Second,- I dislike tap dancing'

The eveningts entert¿inment.started with a eabaret theme ofthe 1930's. (adults) and songsfrom "The ïtrizsrd of Oz" (juniorcompany). [t was cute, but not asmemorable as some of tùe othercabarets, though I must say thejunior 'company did eitremely'well, despite their matcrial.

' After a short intermission,"Anything Goes" started with anintroduction of the charactersduring the ousture ,with eac.l¡person walking across stage with

. their nsmes sppearing on suit-cases, ssarves and such, to shòwthose who wouldn't read theirprograms who is,who.

F¡om that pojnt it crept alongfor abor¡t 25 minutes (more thewriter's fault, I fear) with theorchestra drowning out thelingers three quarters of thetinre, which didn't help thingsmudr. During thÍs time it alsoseemed that the actors werìetreating the show as a hardship,forcing themselves into doingtheir parts.

Buü once we hit the numbersong by Donados Garza, 'iHeavenHgp," the show sprang to life,energ7 pid<ed úp, the actors''relaxed and it finally leveled outto the usual G.C.P. standards Ihave come to know and love.

The plot is simple. It's the goodold 30's plot of boy meets girl,.boy loses girl, boy siugs song and

. gets girl back. The only thing .

'-about this one is that this alltakes place on a ship, the S.S.American. . Not extremelymemorable, but it does get you

from one Cole Porter song toanother.

The di¡ection of Chris Mo¿dand the performances by theactors and actresses in this showare the only thing that spves thesinking plot.

Certain performers shine 'as

they do their bits - Julie Noe asthe bombehell hallejulah sin¿ierReno Sweeney; Dan Pessano a.e

Moon Face, a gangster ofnon-repute (public enemy No.13); Sir Evelyn; played byFredric Berling, and DonadayG¡irza ¿s Bonníe, Moo¡ Fece'gcohort in crime.

I ¡lso must give credit to thechorus. Their timely entranceson some of the songs is,prieeless.This is mostly caused by thedirection, but chorus is whatcarries it off.

Teehnically the show movesalong without an apparent hitÆh,but what stands out is

'thebrilliant costumes by the Moads(Chris, Mallory, and their mom.)They shine and sparkle with thebrilli¿nce of early Broadway.

I4 recap, if you ean make itthrough the lirst 25 minut¿s, Ipromise you a thoroughly epjoy-able show. It almost changed myfeelinç for nostalgia. this purchase prire,winner was

Rebuff to ArobsMoet of us, theae l¡st months, h¿ve w¿tched expectantly the

sucoess¡oE and f¿ílrtres in tàe process of trying to bring. about alasùing peace in the Middle Easù. ïfe have applauded the effortsof world leaders like Sad¿t of Egypt and Beþ of Israel andh¡ve been proud of the role th¿t our Presidènt has played inthese proceedings.

hesident Carter, bowever, has recently taken actions that tomany observers are incongruous with his ¿vowed desire to finda vi¿ble peace in the Middle East.

Im refering to.the incident involving Saudi Arabia's de factoruler, the Crow¡ Prince Fahd. S¿udi Arabia rem¿ins the Uñited

Just before the treaty was signed the prince planned to forma committee of Islamic nations to test the seriousness of U.S.and Israeli inte¡tions on a me.aningful solution to- thePalestinian problem.

IIis idea was a gathering of Arab foreign ministers inWashington to discuss U.S. ideas for the establishment of .aPalestinian homeland on the lVest Bank and Gaza. Fahd hopedth¿t this would generate nerv energy and momentum in ùhepeace talks, offset drab hardliners and give Saudi Arabia areasþD for continuing aid to ESyp!.

The enti¡e Fahd initiat'rve had been worked out carefullybeforehand with Pùsident Sad¿t of Egypù, who hadwholeheartedly approved the plan. Sadat, it seems, would havebeen glad !o bave the help of the Saudi's in his role asnegotiator for the Palestinians..llris initistive, and the support that Saudi Arabia could

generate among its Arab allies, was seen as a way of bolsteringthe chances of a Mid-East peace by involving more Arab leadersin meaningful rregotiations.

However, according to high-ranking Saudi officialó,trrashington informed Fahd th¡t he should drop his initiative onthe grounds th¿t it would only emba¡rase President Cartær.Srashington we¡t so f¡r as to tell Prinee Fahd thst if such acommittee came to Washington Carter would not receive it.

As ¡ result of Carter's c¿llous rejection of Fal¡d's attempt tohelp in the peace process, the Prince took no part in theBaghdad meeting of Arab leaders and instructed his fellowprinces in S¿udi Arabi¿ that the country had no choice but to

Of course, it is difficult to tellwhat is really happening in Italy.The story sf il.s political collapsehas been told, almost entirely, asthird or fourth page news. It hasbeen scantily reported so that,after reading it you say: yes,something is happening, butwhat exactly?

Více premier's deqfh leqvesIioly even sh qkier fhqn eyer

_Italy's Vice Premier Ugo LaMalfa is dead. Dead with ñim isany hope for Christian DemocratGiuilio Andreotti's new coalitiôngovernment, and possibly, forany government at all in Italy, inthe near futuie.

LasmallmanprestiViceg_overnment in an attempt todraw some much needed suþportfor it.

Someone like La Malfa, some-one with some kiild of reputationand public following, with thepotential to lead his eountry in anewly defined direction, was justwhat ltaly needed most. LaMalfa was 75, and. it was

speculated that even his name in-Andreotti's cabinet would beineffeetual, but at a time whenevery public figure in Italy isfloundering for lack of support,La Malfa's value should nb1 beunderestimatæd.

Prime Minister Andreotti andhis Christian Democratic Party,it is becoming apparent, have noreal. Support. The ChristianDemocrats have been working tounite and lead Italy under theirbanner since the end of thesecond World IVar. But tlùepublic, it seems, has grownincreasingly indifferent to them,giving the Italian .CommunistParty 35oó of its vote in 1977.

Andreott,i's coalition ofChristian Democrats, SocialDemocrats, and Republicans,formed last month, is only thelatest attempt to salvage theChristian Democratic Partv'sposition as majority party in õheItalian Pàrliament. Andreottihimself rnuit seem to the Italianpeople part ofthe whole businessthat has played politics whilepoverty and discontent haveremained everywhere,

The Italian Communist Party,wl¡ich recently withdrew itsmembers from Pa¡liament, is

losing public support as well.Many Italians turned to theCommunist Party, under theleadership of Enrico Berlinguer,when it seemed no other partywould take ltaly out of thepost-lVorld-War-Il depression.

But when Berlinguer took theDemocratic Pat,h to pout'er,winning seats in the Parliament,hè compromised his ability toimplement Communist policiesand the public soon lost faith inhim as well.
