Shakespeare auditions to be held this weekend By Kevin Bensley Staff Reporter Cindy Melby Phaneuf, artistic di rector of the Nebraska Shakespeare Festival, has announced auditions for the company of the 1996 edition of “Shakespeare on the Green.” Shakespeare’s works, considered by many to be the world’s greatest, will be brought to life again this sum mer at Omaha’s Elmwood Park. The Nebraska Shakespeare Festi val is preparing for its 10th season of providing superior entertainment for free, with the help of the Bard of Stratford on Avon. The plays to be presented this sum mer are a comedy, “The Taming of the Shrew,” to be directed by Phaneuf, and “Henry V,” a historical drama, directed by John Ahlin. Ahlin, who is an actor/director from New York, has been with the NSF company for several seasons. Phaneuf is a professor of theater at the University of Nebraska at Omaha. She is also the co-founder of NSF and has directed eight previous NSF pro ductions. Michael Markey, managing direc tor for the NSF, said the make-up of the company is about “50-50” when it comes to talent from inside and out side the metro Omaha area. Auditions are held in New York and Chicago, as well as Omaha, attracting potential players from all over the country. “Both shows are popular with ac tors,” Markey said, “so we do expect a good turnout.” The company for both plays will total about 35 actors. Markey said the NSF worked in cooperation with UNO and Creighton. It employs students from both schools during the run, and some high schools get in the act, as well. Auditions will be held this week end, both Saturday and Sunday, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. in the Fine Arts Building on the UNO campus.

But delivering the speeches of his own father proved to be the most difficult part of writing the show. “It was just too close,” he said. The first version of “Father-Land” made its premiere in late 1990, but followed a wider variety of thoughts and themes than the current version, he said. “The first one was a kind of an octopus of a play,” he said. Although Raz likes both plays, the latter is his preferred one. “It was definitely a positive evolu tion,” he said. Raz will be in residence during February and March as a part of the UNL College of Fine and Performing Arts Artists Diversity Residency Pro gram, which brings in artists from various backgrounds to speak on themes of interest. Raz’s future plans include playing Bottom in a summer production of “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” and try ing to do “Father-Land” in San Fran cisco, he said. “I’m also going to do a round of auditioning,” he said, “and try to start up an apprentice program for young sters who want to perform in the cir cus” Tickets for tonight’s performance of “Father-Land” are $ 10 for the gen eral public and $5 for students, and are available at the Lied Center Box Office.

Voorhees said she would focus on dance composition in terms of line and shape, but most importantly, en ergy. “They use an energy that s incred ible, explosive,” Voorhees said.

Jerry Jacoby’s amazing two works, each called simply “Geometric and Organic forms,” exude an intense, abstract vision of the cosmos.
