The play explores the relation ship between an older priest and a young seminarian, and the effect the two have on each other. Through the course of the play Rev. Farley (McGraw) teaches Mark Dolson (Landis) the tact and sur vival necessary in the world, while the young man brings renewed spirit and passion to the priest's life and work. "Mass Appeal" originally opened in Omaha at a dinner theater where it received "glowing reviews," said Pat Overton, UNL theater manager. She said the theater department Is taking advantage of a good show that McGraw and Landis already have performed by doing the play as a benefit. Not all departments can generate pro grams to raise money, and since the theater department can, they'll use it, she said. All proceeds will go to the scholarship fund at UNL. Because the money goes to gra duate students, "Mass Appeal" was organized, directed, and sup ported by the grad students them selves. The production at Howell will vary from the show in Omaha A new set, costumes and direction will bring a different approach and a chance to try new things. Chris Wineman, director, said he thinks "Mass Appeal" is the ideal play because McGraw and Landis nearly direct themselves. Although things have been hectic", and at times maddening work ing around schedules and the new semester everyone involved is excited and hopes that the benefit will be a success and will raise money for the students. "Mass Appeal" will play Friday and Saturday at 8 p.m. and also Sept. 6 through 8. Tickets cost $4.
