W 'Celebration ' usical opens Oct. 9 "Celebration," a musical filled with eye-pleasing pagentry that is a lyrical elegy to youth and to life itself, will open the 1986-87 season of the University Theatre and Dance Company. Theater Preview The play, in which an engaging group of singers and dancers cele brate spring solstice, will open Thurs day, Oct. 9, and will be presented Friday and Saturday, Oct. 10 and 1 1, and Tuesday through Saturday, Oct. 14 through 18. Curtain time for each performance is 8 p.m. in Howell Theatre. Director Kevin Paul Hofeditz said he chose "Celebration" for perfor mance this year "because it is color ful, thought-provoking and enter taining." "Best of all, it gives lots of oppor tunities for the talented dancers, actors and singers in our musical theatre program of study. It's ener getic, with each performer needing to be able to 'do it all' and make 'it all' look easy," he said. "Celebration," by Tom Jones and Harvey Schmidt, originally appeared on Broadway in 1969. Since then, it has been frequently produced all over America. The theme of the musical is hope. The play dwells in a land of enchant ment. From the first song, a celebra tion of the solstice when the sun stops receding and starts to climb high in the sky, the play moves I Entertainment of the Future! Coupon Homemade Pasta!

A play within a play symbolically pits idealistic youth and purity a gainst age, wealth and power, accor ding to Hofeditz, who has appeared in several University Theatre pro ductions and directed the musical "Grease" during the season's 1984 85 season. "Celebration" features Kent Lin demer, a senior theatre arts student from Papillion, as Orphan, a shy youth with a dream of love and goodness in his heart. Roxanne McCosh, a senior in music theatre from Gering, appears as Angel, a slightly tarnished angel with break away wings who longs to become "somebody," preferably in show bus iness. Angel is pursued by Rich, played by Brent Schawl, a graduate student in theatre arts from Lincoln. More evil is Potemkin, played by Morten Hasnen, a graduate student in theatre arts from Erie, Pa. Potem kin is a cynical and magical rogue who finds it practical to accommo date the evils of the world. His songs, "Survive" and "Not MY Prob lem" sum up his less than honorable point of view. "Celebration" has a colorful cast of singers and dancers that also includes Jeff Adams, a freshman theatre major from Omaha; Jill And erson, a sophomore theatre major from Lincoln; Yvonne Anderson, a junior music theatre major from Nebraska City; Kyle Clark, a sopho OPENING!
