Legend delights young, old By Jill O’Brien Senior Reporter A stage adaptation of Washington Irving’s “The Legend of Sleepy Hol low” opened Thursday at the Lincoln Community Playhouse, 25(X) S. 56lh St. This delightful play is geared to ward elementary-aged children, but siblings,paremsand grandparents will also enjoy this two-act production. Carl Wilson excels implaying the lanky, stern, yet gullirolc, school teacher, Ichabod Crane, who is smit ten by the lovely Katrina. Susan Lott gracefully portrays Kairina as a beautiful, wishy-washy young woman in love with her school master and the arrogant Brom Bones. A memorable scene between Ichabod and Brom occurs when Ichabod, dancing and spinning around at the Halloween Frolic, bumps into Brom. Brom, played by Mark Weitzenkamp, casts such a chilling frown at Ichabod, the theater audi ence could immediately feel Brom’s animosity. During the same scene, a group of musicians brought merriment to the stage with their fiddles, washboard, guitar and banjo, when they played three tunes as part of the Halloween Frolic hoc-down. Another scene that earned audi ence applause showed Ichabod, in preparation for the Frolic, groomed and dancing with his reflection (Brad Boesen) in front of a rustic-looking, vine-framed mirror. The classic costumes of ruffled petticoats and knee britches added flavor to the 1813, New England era, while the simple scenery of oversized leaves and acorns, Gothic tree trunks and giant rocks provided the perfect backdrop for picnics, parties, pranks, and of course, the legendary ride of the Headless Horseman — guaran teed to strike fear into the hearts of younger children. “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow” runs through Nov. 1. Call the Lincoln Comm unity Playhouse, 489-9608, for more information on dales and limes. Tickets arc SI2 for adults and S6 for children. Lazio Continued from Page 9 . with Russell Stover’s next door, Lazio’s has been totally refurbished from a broken down building into an attractive restaurant. But other than the authentic aura, Lazio’s is significant for making their own beer, Boles said. A restaurant in California was the inspiration for this concept, Boles said. Boles, and part owners Brian Boles and Jay Jarvis adopted this idea, and Lazio’s opened with a brewery in March 1991. The $200,000 brewery, enclosed in glass, is visible to the customers. Another important aspect of Lazio’s is that thcchefs hickory-wood grill their food, which gives a flavor that cannot be achieved from a gas grill, Boles said. “We have a phi losophy about food and beer: We want it to be the best of its kind, or we won’t serve it,” Boles said. Price ranges for the food are from $3.95 to 21.95, including: appetizers, hamburgers, chicken, steaks, seafood and more. Lazio’s is open everyday at 11 a.m. and closes at 1 a.m. Monday through Saturday. Sundays hours are from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. r n YOUTH.

Crowd gets wild, wild, wild at rowdy Quiet Riot concert By Jill O’Brien Senior Reporter_ Rockin’ Robin will never be the same—not since Quiet Riot landed in Lincoln and unlcascd its uncensorcd music Saturday night. Quiet Riot’s lead singer, Kevin DuBrow, incited frenzied fans to dance on tabletops during the 70 »minute, nine-song set of metal music. Cheering and wild applause qui eted down long enough during the second show to listen to lead gui • tarist Carlos Cavazo’s four-minute solo on “Let’s Get Crazy.” After that, not a shred of sanity remained in the house. The West Coast, heavy metal act packed the house twice — the early show for fist-fighting minors, and the second show^catered to the r~———— over-21 crowd of college beer guz zlers and hard rockers in leathers and Levis. For the second show, a sea of fans washed up dangerously close to the stage. Rock in ’ Robin’s owner, Jim Calloway, said the congestion was caused by the crowd edging too close to the front, instead of spreading out. “I turned away about 100 people at the door,” he said, adding that the line for walk-ins had extended around the block. All but 20 tickets had been sold in advance, he said. But fans, who missed hearing “Slick, Black Cadillac,” and “Cum on Feel the Noi/.e,” will gel the chance to hear Quiet Riot, some time in the near future, Calloway said. “Quiet Riot will be back.” 9 9 2 TOUR OF OLYMPIC AND WORLD HAMPION GYMNASTS a, TRENT DfMAS SHANNON Mil I I H TATIANA C.l ISl SVKII AN A BOG I IN'K A IA VriAlimnan <UJ-4J (CicciniB) (trantiq ((Nimu) ^■ssasss^jsssaass^^ - Tuesday, October 20 • 7:30 p.m. Am*. ilf 9 ^ mm ^ ■ $19.50 / $15.50 Reserved Seating .
