Crib features singing, slamming tonight
From Staff Reports
Peggy Seeger, a folk singer and
activist famed for the song “Gonna Be
An Engineer,” performs in the Crib
tonight at 9.
Seeger was born into one of
America’s most important folk tradi
tions. Her mother, singer Ruth
Crawford Seeger, married Charles
Seeger, a musicologist and critic.
Their children, Peggy, Peter and
Mike, went on to become some of the
most popular protest singers of the
civil rights era.
For many years, Peggy Seeger led
the Bechanham Anti-Nuclear Group
(Bang), an English organization. She
has also advocated other causes, in
cluding women’s organizations,
groups for the disabled and anti-apart
heid organizations.
Before Seeger’s performance,
Lincoln’s first “Poetry Slam” will be
gin at 7 p.m., featuring Liz Ahl and
Ray Ronci.
In contrast to a poetry reading with
a quiet audience and unflustered per
formers, organizer Stephen Sparling
promises the Poetry Slam will be a
noisy affair “with lots of people
stomping their feet.”
This interactive event will also fea
ture prizes from Backtrack Records
and Bluestem Books.
Both activities are free and spon
sored by the Office for Student In
volvement.

alone to face her uncertain future.
Even with subtitles, the story
shines. Although much of the beauty
is lost in translation, the performances
are wonderful.
Internationally acclaimed screen
diva Anna Magnani is simply incred
ible as Mamma Roma. Ettore
Garofolo is wonderful as the sullen,
bitter son who just wants to fit in and
Silvana Corsini is delightful as the lo
cal flirt who Ettore falls in love with.
Sure, it’s in black and white. Sure,
it’s old. Sure, it’s got some problems
that audiences would never expect in
a current film. But “Mamma Roma”
is still a delightful gem.
“Mamma Roma” is playing tonight
and Friday with showtimes at 7 and 9
p.m. each day.
Film: “Mamma Roma”
Stars: Anna Magnani, Ettore
Garofolo, Silvana Corsini
Director: Pier Paolo Pasolini
Grade: B
Rating: Unrated '
Five words: Controversial

Dreams,” sets the mood with its blues
progressions and full sound. The song
has as much feeling as any release in
the last few years. And that emotion
pours through Cain’s guitar like a bed
side confession.
“Trouble Makin’ Woman,” a throw
back to the days of barbecue and saw
dust blues, conjures images of smoke
filled recording studios and old skin
and-bones blues men, clapping their
hands along with the singer.
“At the Club” is Cain’s tribute to
the art of picking up a date. With a
variety of voices and a nonstop back
ground chatter, Cain uses his unique
charm to try to find love in a darkly
lit bar.
For blues fans, “Somewhere Along
the Way” promises to be a satisfactory
purchase.
And if live music appeals more,
check out Cain tonight at the Zoo Bar.
The atmosphere and the nature of live
performance should take some of the
gleam out of Cain’s music and leave
it somewhat raw, as blues should be.
The cover charge for tonight’s per
formance is $5. The music begins at
9.

tions have been equally challenging,
Tavares said.
“The actors have worked just as
hard or harder than me to understand
this material.
“I defy anyone to truly understand
the meaning of a Sam Shepard play.”
But, Tavares said, translating
Shepard’s work onto the stage is an
experience he enjoys. A longtime fan
of the writer/director/actor, he said
Shepard’s popularity among young
people in theater was fairly easy to
comprehend.
“He says the word ‘fuck’ and he
talks in a way I think young people
understand. He.doesn’t apologize for
the gritty language and nature of his
material.”
Language alone, however, does not
a good playwright make. Shepard’s
approach to characters and their situ
‘7his material seems to be very close to who Sam
Shepard is. I think Eddie is a lot like Shepard in
real life. ”
GREG TAVARES
Director
ations is another quality that has made
him so popular, Tavares said.
“I really think he writes by setting.
He sets up these situations, and then
he seems to write from an explosion.”
“Fool For Love” should be particu
larly appealing to Shepard’s fans,
Tavares said, because of its similari
ties to the playwright himself.
“This material seems to be very
close to who Sam Shepard is. I think
Eddie is a lot like Shepard in real life.”
“Fool For Love” opens tonight and
will run Friday and Saturday, and Nov.
14 through Nov. 18. The show is per
formed in the Studio Theatre on the
third floor of the Temple Building.
Tickets are $6 for students, $7 for fac
ulty, staff and senior citizens and $9
for all others. Performances start at 8
each night.
“It has a lot to say to us, our gen
eration. There’s a youthfulness about
it," Tavares said.
“I think it’s a damn good produc
tion and I would hope that people will
come to see it.”
