A kid tries to set up his wid owed father (Ed Harris) with a local prostitute (Griffith) from a score on a test he found in a magazine. This is a heart warming, rather predictable flick that can be en joyed by all, and the classroom project scene is an absolute scream. PICK OF THE WEEK — “Dangerous Liaisons ” has Uma Thurman sharingthe screen with Glenn Close. The film’s performances, score and costuming are all phe nomenal , and make tne film defi nitely worth seeing. Masquers Continued from Page 9 range of topics were covered in the 15 submissions to the playwrights’ con test. “We saw everything from homelessness to AIDS to young and old relationships to homosexuality to drug and alcohol abuse discussed in these plays,” he said. The diversity of subject matters, along with the quality of each script, made selecting only five plays a diffi cult decision, Cohen said. Malachi Thompson “New Standards** Delmark Records Grade: A On his third album, “New Stan dards,” composer and trumpeter Malachi Thompson is joined once again by the Freebop Band. Their, high level of talent enhances their tremendous leader. “Joshua" starts off right away by highlighting Thompson. This up beat favorite focuses all of the en ergy present and creates a great prelude to the second song, *‘Pinnoccio”. The album’s most clever song is a funky arrangement of “The Wiz ard of Oz’’ song “If I Only Had a Brain.” If you’re not careful, you might find yourself whistling it, with or without the hefty horns. The album’s finale is a four-part suite called “Chicago Sound scapes.” This song traces Thompson’s hometown, from his first orchestra to three personally memorable spots in the city. “New Standards” will be one of the top ten jazz albums of the year. Get with the hard bop and pick it up. —Greg Schick “The students had a really good ear for dialogue,” he said. “And that’s not an easy thing to do. “It’s very difficult to write like that and make it sound natural and realis tic. But these students were able to do it.” The criteria used in the selection process primarily consisted of two aspects, Tuttle said. “The play had to reveal the ability to tackle contemporary issues as well as be producible with our limited re sources,” he said. After the plays were chosen, Tuttle was in charge of the hiring of directors and technical staff, as well as casting. Giving students with limited experi ence in theater a chance was a guiding factor in his hiring decisions, he said. Production work on the five plays has been going on since the beginning of this semester, he said. But limited time and resources have been chal lenging aspects in the staging process.
