Theme of 100-year-old play, ‘La Ronde ’,
explores love relationships, courtships
theatrix.
By Matthew Grant
Staff Reporter
Ten sex scenes, in a bed, in a park,
in a cafe, and all in a play will start this
year’s scheduled Theatrix events
Thursday at the Studio Theatre.
"La Ronde,” written by Arthur
Schnitzler in the 1890s, is an experi
mental play, which takes a two-hour
circular tour through Vienna and a
variety of relationships, courtships
and infidelities going on in that city.
Director Missy Wiglev said the
play is “about sexual relationships
and how they’re meaningless and how
people treat them as being meaning
less.” Everyone in late 19th century
Vienna appears to have the same thing
in mind. In the first scene a prostitute
and a sailor meet. They have sex in the
street and he leaves. In the next scene
he is back on stage, going through the
same motions with a different woman
outside a dance hall.
The play continues in the same
manner, with each character appear
ing in two successive scenes with no
more than two characters on stage.
The only characters who do not end
up moaning through a black-out or in
each others arms are a husband and
wife.
At the start of their meetings the
cheating lovers in each scene profess
their undying love. After the meet
ings have reached their climax, most
of the men quickly become disinter
ested in the woman — there is no
homosexuality in this play — and
start making excuses to leave. In this
environment both suspicion and jeal
ously come with every encounter.
The timelessness of this theme led
Wigley to choose the play: “While
this play was written a 100 years ago,”
she said, “nothing has really changed.”
Nevertheless, the subject may not
go down well with all Nebraska the
ater-goers.
“A little daring,” Wigley said.
But in the age of AIDS, La Ronde
is a reminder that when people have
sex they come into contact not only
with their partner, but also every pre
vious partner of their partner.
This season Theatrix is supporting
the Nebraska AIDS Project, with do
nation opportunities and literature
distribution at the performances of all
nine plays.
Tickets cost $2 and are available at
the door.
