iio theatre performs 'Deed'
By Dennis Eltermeier
The second production in the UNL
Studio Theatre this season will be a play
by drama professor Joseph Baldwin. "A
Deed from the King of Spain" will open
tonight and be presented through
Sunday.
The play was written in 1964 while
Baldwin was in New York on a Woods
Fellowship and was first staged earlier
this year by the American Center for
Stanislavsky Theatre in New York City.
Receiving warm critical ovations there,
the company will again offer it in its
alternating repertory this season.
New York Times critic Howard
""hompson described the play as "a fine
drama of a disintegrating family in the
American Southwest." He continued
saying the play "simmers like a
Chekhovian chamber work, then boils
into a darkly sardonic symphony."
Baldwin said the central idea of the
play was derived from his teaching days
at Stephen F. Austin State College, in
East Austin, Tex.
"East Austin is an old town and was
not without its aristocracy people who
could trace their properties back to
original ownership ceded to them by the
King of Spain," Baldwin said.
"that's where I got the idea for the
play, and I developed a plot centering
around the efforts of one improverished
family to regain its family name and
properties that had been lost a
generation before," he said.
Baldwin, who will direct the produc
tion here, said, "I think I learned a great
deal about the play and obtained new
insights from the New York production.
Some of it wiil show up in the UNL
Studio Theatre production. I think at
least one area recapturing the dialect
of the people in the play I hold some
advantage over the New York pro
ducers." The cast of eight includes Deb
Minden, James Ryan, Melissa Baer,
Ann Perkinton. Doug Koth, Gregg
Wagner, Charles Krig and Mark
Kruger. Designers for the show are
Diane Cernif, set, and Carolyn Hull,
costumes.
Tickets, available at the University
Theatre Box Office 1 to 5 p.m. daily, are
$2.
