featured in UPC's 'April Foolishness'
m . . IT: Tl -i . .
The University Program Council is welcoming in April
with a variety of activities during "April Foolishness,"
which begins Tuesday and runs through the 1 8th.
UPC's Talks and Topics Committee will present "Is
There Life After College?" with comedian Bill Alexander.
Admission to the show, in the Nebraska Union Ballroom
Tuesday at 8 p.m. is free.
Alexander's presentation, a blend of stand-up comedy
and one-man theater, consists of four acts corresponding
to each year in school.
As an undergraduate, the hero of the show is torn
between his pre-law studies and his yearning to become a
stand-up comedian.
We meet his school buddies, his roommates and all
the campus types - the "Jock" (who wears a letter on
his sweater to remind him what team he plays for), the
"Pre-Med" (whose only four words are: "What did Vw
get"), the "Freak," (majoring in Transcendental Med
itation) and the baton-twirling "Rah-Rah" (invariably
named Kathy Sue or Bobbi Joe).
Finally, as the hero prepares to leave college, he looks
back on what he has learned over four years: the Great
Revelation of freshman year is that There is no God. The
Great Revelation of sophomore year is that There is no
Justice. The Great Revelation of junior year is that There
is no Great Literature. The Great Revelation of senior
year is that There are no Jobs.
Alexander runs the Comedy Cellar in New York and
makes 80 to 100 college appearances a year.
The Foreign Films Committee is showing "How
Tasty Was My Little Frenchman?" Thursday at 7 p.m
in the Rostrum. Admission is SI for students and S2
for others.
The film, in French with English subtitles, is an en
tertaining blend of anthropology, black humor, beautiful
photography, 16th-century history, political allegory,
ubiquitous nudity and unsettling prophecy.
The American Films Committee ' is showing "Hie
Creature From the Black Lagoon" Sunday at 5, 7 and
9 p.m. in the Rostrum. Admission is $1 .
The Concerts and Coffeehouses Committee is pre
senting comedianguitaristsatirist Dave Rudolf April
17 at 4 p.m. outside at the Broyhill Plaza. In case of rain,
Rudolf will appear in the Centennial Room. Admission
is free.

circuit, was voted "Best Coffeehouse Act of 1982" by
the National Association of Campus Activities.
The Arts Committee is sponsirng the final event,

Lounge.

quirks and involves audience participation.

Five Lincoln reskHents prepare
for 'Terms of Endearment'
By David Creamer
The idea of Paramount Pictures filming,
part of the movie "Terms of Endearment"
here has some Lincoln residents excited,
especially those who will be playing roles
in the film.
Five Lincolnites have been chosen to
play parts in the movie, which stars Jack
Nicholson, Debra Winger and Shirley
MacLaine. Filming is scheduled to begin
April 30.
Troy Bishop, 10-year old son of Carol
Bishop of Lincoln, was picked to play the
part of Tommy, the son of Debra Winger's
character.
Bishop, in his first audition ever, was
chosen out of a group of about 125 boys
from all around the area.
After the first reading, the group was
cut down to 20 boys. Additional readings
cut the size of the group down to 12, then
six, then two, and from there the final
decision was made after one last reading
in Houston, Bishop said.
Last weekend, Bishop left for Houston
to begin rehearsals and prepare for filming
Thursday.
"Troy is really anxious to get started
and to do well," his mother said.
Bishop has played background roles in
high, school plays and has been in elemen
tary school plays, but this was the first
time he actually auditioned for a part,
she said.
Also to appear in the film are four
Lincoln women. Bette Croissant, Judy
Dickerson, Lenora Letcher and Peg Sheld
rick have been selected to play short roles
in different scenes throughout the film.
Croissant will appear as a nurse in a
scene filmed in Lincoln General Hospital
with Shirley MacLaine.
Dickerson is to play a check-out girl in
a supermarket with Debra Winger. Dicker
son, a UNL theater voice and diction pro
fessor,, said the scene will be about five
minutes long and involves a small
argument between her and the Winger
character over the grocery bill, which the
Winger character is unable to pay.
Letcher is cast as a food server in a
scene with MacLaine.
Sheldrick said she was told that she
would have a part in a motel scene of some
type, which had not yet been written.
Casting of local people for non-speaking
parts in campus and crowd scenes is the
next step, according to Jackie Beavers,
Lincoln casting director. Those interested
in being considered for these parts need
to send a snapshot, letter of application
and a descriptive list that includes height,
weight, age, eye color and hair color, to
Beavers at 303 N. 52nd St., Lincoln,
68504.
