In what may be the first “lip sync musical,” the Theatrn pro duction of “Soda Pop” opened Thursday night Written and directed by Univer- .s sity of Nebraska-Lincoln students Jim Hanna and Jeffrey Adams, both junior theatre arts majors, the show is a spoof of 1950s genre shows. It is set when guys were cool, chicks were hot and slumber parties were endless. It’s “your worst nightmare of ‘Grease,’” said Kristy Green, a cast member. Set in Pop’s Soda Shop, a slum ber party, or various street comers in Anywhere, U.S.A,, the story has your basic boy (Bobby, played by Chris Stream) loving girl (Betty, played by Carolyn Slemp), then the boy losing girl, and the boy getting the girl back from sniveling teen rebeXpunk (Jimmy, played by Tom Crew). Meanwhile: Joey, Peggy, Jeny, Mary, Tommy and Susie (notice a pattern here?) go through the basic teen traumas of prom and class rings while being under the loving guidance of everyone’s favorite Soda Jerk, Pop (Joe Sampson). Directed with tongue firmly in cheek by Hannaandchoreographed by Adams, the plot is weaved through lock V roll oldies such as “Get a Job.” “Leader of the Pack,” __: .. .DivM rnnamttfy Mary (Deana Schwelger} and Batty (Carolyn Stomp* atodra Peggy’s (Janny Ebariay) naw ring during a 'Soda Pop «, retiMrsal. * and “Runaway * which are lip synchronized by the case. Hanna said the show came out of his love for the music, his desire to do something ftin for the audi ence and cast, and an inability to sing. nI didn’t intend this, obviously, to be meaningful,” he said. Cast members said the show was different than other shows they've participated in. “We’ve all been able to throw in any ideas, * Slemp said. The show runs Thursday, Satur day and Sunday at 8 p m. and Fri day at 10p.m. at the Studio Theatre in the Temple Bldg., 333 N 14th St. Tickets are $2. Promoter says band won't return TROUBLES from Page 7 Other problems developed when the band discovered that there weren’t adequate dressing room ac comodations, he said. “We needed at least four to six dressing rooms for the band and crew,” he said. “We had three.” Fremstead said bands rent the whole building, but all they really get is the arena and a few other rooms. Fremstead said locker rooms are usually made into dressing rooms, but because of new basketball offices and locker facility agreements with Coach Danny Nee the available space was cut down. Sports center officials do not allow bands to use the freshman and varsity locker rooms anymore, Fremstead said. “I’m just not exactly pleased with the whole situation,” Fremstead said. “You can’t point fingers because there is no right or wrong about any of this, it just happened that way.” Fremstead said he did not foresee any of the same problems with the upcoming Van Halen concert, but was worried about attracting future concerts. “When one of the biggest bands in the country doesn’t want to play a place, it’s bad,” he said. “Rumor does travel.” Fremstead said he will make an official statement to the press Mon day.
