'Cast of crazies ' makes modern neuroses funny By Kelly A. Ellenwood If audience reaction is any indication of the qual ity of a theatrical production; then the University Studio Theatre's presentation of Christopher Du rang's Beyond Therapy is a "must see" production. Director Timothy Mooney and his cast of crazies" have combined an infallible script, wonderful comic timing and a light sarcastic touch, to produce a humorous and sophisticated look at modern human relationships. As Mooney puts it, the play is an anal ysis of "deeply-rooted anxieties." Iheater Review The plot revolves around Bruce, well-played by an honestly neurotic Kevin Hofeditz, and Prudence, portrayed by an increasingly neurotic Shelley Boehmer. They meet through personal ads and from then on it is complete hysteria, as each turns to therapists for guidance which only proves that they are all "beyond therapy." Marcia Grund as Bruce's therapist, Charlotte, receives the award for best actress. It would have been easy to be just outrageous, but Grund manages to be subtle and believable while portraying a very funny character. Other performances of note are Kenneth Wayne Page's capably macho portrayal of Prudence's ther apist Stuart, and Todd Pickering's very intense work as Bruce's "friend," Bob. The entire cast and crew should be congratulated for giving the audience such a delightful evening despite such a disturbing subject. Charlotte sums it up with this line: "If you take psychological suffering in the right frame cf mind, you can find the humor in it" , ' Beyond Tlierapy will continue its run through Saturday in the Studio Theatre, 12th and R streets.
