Wickedness
Continued from Page 9
“I really liked the story. It seemed there were
a lot of possibilities for audio exploration,” he
said.
Kirschner said he wanted to mold the sounds
of a blizzard into a sonic metaphor so it wouldn’t
always be the sound of wind.
“I'm intrigued by trying to create a
soundscapc to evoke a blizzard of sound,” he
said.
He said his music could be a “blizzard of
words” in which one sound was repealed and
chopped up until it became unrecognizable.
Kirschner said he researched the music of
the late 19th century in preparing for “Wicked
ness.”
In one passage, a reference is made to a girl
going to a party and dancing “quadrilles” — a
precursor to the American square dance, he
said.
it was a popular form of entertainment.
They used social orchestras — a few violins, a
cello, a clarinet — that would play these qua
drilles.”
Most of the score is electronic, Kirschner
said, accompanied by a live violinist and a
mezzo soprano. He said he also would use
different sound effects for wind, trains and
animals.
“We're usingdigital sampling techniques to
create a collage.” he said. “So it’s an electronic
piece, but it's not electronic in the sense of
synthesizers.” i
The producer
Lamphere's dream is coming true.
Her dream, the Wagon Train Project, was
designed to be a catalyst for performing artists
in Lincoln to interact with national artists to
develop a project.
Cultivating Nebraska history through these
performances was another one of Lamphere’s
objectives.
"Wickedness'' fulfills all these objectives.
It illustrates exactly what our strength areas
arc as an arts organization and our goals as a
creative force,” Lamphcrc said. “We re allow
ing artists to build a work and producing it with
them."
The “icing on the cake,” Lamphcrc said, is
that the artists arc taking part of Nebraska's
culture and exploring and celebrating it.
Presenting “ W ickedncss” i n Nebraska' s ccn
tral body, the State Capitol, is another bonus.
When Lamphcrc received “Wickedness”
from Lily, her old friend from New York, she
was horrified. ,
“It was a really hard story. Some of the
images of the children just blew me away.” she
said. “Having two children of my own. it was
very powerful.
"I love Ron s use of language, and that's
something (Lily has) really maintained in this
piece. It's interwoven in different scenes.”
The script adaptation, by Ann Arbor director
Erika Block, will undergo further changes be
fore “Wickedness" is premiered in New York
next May.
“During this whole process, theartists really
have a chance to fine-tune the production be
fore it goes to New York." Lamphere said.
During the process, Lamphere said, “Wick
edness” fulfilled another goal by drawing from
resources within the community.
The production utilised the talents of several
University of Ncbraska-Lincoln students from
the theater and dance departments.
Local ballet and country-western dancers
will be in the production, as well as a local
singcrand violinist.
“These local artists really lend a certain
perspective.” Lamphere said.
Lamphere will videotape the performances
on Friday and Saturday. When she attends the
National Performance Network conference in
New Orleans this December, she will present
the tape with the hope that she can get the show
booked across the country.

“It's our hope it will have a life beyond
Lincoln and New York." she said.
The performances will be held in the State
Capitol rotunda, underneath the mosaic depict
ing schoolteacher Minnie May Freeman lead
ing her students to safety during the 1888 bliz
zard.
The premiere performance will bcon Friday
at noon. Additional performances will be that
day at 4 p m. and Saturday at noon and 3 p.m.
Admission is free.
Hattie Benedict woke up in a Lincoln
hospital with sweet oil of spermaceti on her
hands and lips, and weeks later a Kansas
City surgeon amputated her feet with a pol
ished sih>er hacksaw in the presence of his
anatomy class. She was walking again by
June, but she was attached to cork-and-iron
shoes and she sighed and grunted with every
step."— "Wickedness"
Good week
to stay home
with videos
ByOwryBaltz
Staff Reporter “
It's an overall good week for new video
| releases!! There's comedy and adventure —
something to please anyone and everyone. All
new releases are available today.
“Naked Gun 33 1/3: The Final Insult"
(PG) — It may have been the fi nal entry for the
“Naked Gun” movies, but it ccrtai nly wasn’t an
insult. But, three films is about as far as the
series should be taken, because this one was
starting to wear very thin.
Forlhc third installment, our bumbling hero.
Frank Drebin (Leslie Nielsen), has retired and
married Jane (Priscilla Presley), nowa success
ful lawyer. Also returning are George Kennedy
andO.J. Simpson.
“Farewell My Concubine" (R) — This is
. quite a good film that didn’t get a whole lot of
i time in the theaters.
. In “Farewell My Concubine,” the audience
follows the triangle of love and lust between
’ two performers of the Peking Opera and an ex
prostitute. This film was nominated for two
Academy Awards: Best Cinematography and
Best Foreign Film.
We're looking at good stuff here.
“The Snapper" (R)—O’Brien on hisown!
CoImMeaney(ChiefO’Brienfrom television's
“Star Trek: Deep Space Nine”) stars in this
contemporary drama and does a wonderful job
A working girl in present-day Dublin gets
pregnant and refuses to name the father, and her
dad (Meancy) gets really upset with her.
More good stuff!

have been influenced by Mediterranean
and Middle East dishes.” he said.
The spinach yogurt scooped onto a
pita chip was surprisingly delicious.
“I'm into food for fun.” he said. “I
want people to be able to dip into it.”
Bread is served with every meal, and
many of the dishes include a side salad.
Scpapur also has made a lot of struc
tural and decorating changes to the res
taurant.
“I put a partition up to break up the
dining room and make it more comfort
able and more cojv.
“I also changed the ^wnings to make
them bright and more noticeable. I wanted
to tone the atmosphere down a bit and
make it a fun eating room.
“People can come in on a Monday
night or a Friday night and get the same
kind of feel.”
