    Brass Rail enters theater
worldwith The Lone Star’
By Liza Holtmeier
Staff Reporter
They have been friends, room
mates and co-workers; and starting
tonight, they will be co-stars.
Adam Demars, Patrick Tuttle
and Bradley Mausbach will star
together in “The Lone Star,” the
first theatrical production to be per
formed at the Brass Rail, 1436 O
St.
“The Lone Star,” by James
McClure, revolves around the lives
of Roy and Ray, two toothers who
experience a great deal of inner
turmoil. The play, an extension of
McClure’s “Laundry and Bour
bon,” takes place in the back of a
bar, where Roy and Ray go through
the process of revealing things that
will change their lives forever.
Demars, Tuttle and Mausbach
decided to produce the show be
cause of their desire to work on the
atre projects outside of UNL. The
Brass Rail seemed to be the most
likely place to perform. “I’ve al
ways thought the play didn’t belong
in a theatre,” said TUttle who plays
Roy. “It’s rough and raw. In some
ways, its better suited to a place like
this.”
Not only is this the premiere of
theatre at the Brass Rail, it is also
Demars’ debut as a director.
“This experience has been
about discoveries,” Demars said.
“I’ve had to come to understand the
director and actor relationship.
There are still parts of the script I
have yet to discover.”
The three actors have been re
sponsible for all areas of the pro
duction, from acting and directing
to production costs.
“We only have ourselves to rely
on,” Tuttle said. “We’ve brought all
the talent, experience and passion
for theatre we have to this produc
tion.”
Demars hopes this production
will start a tradition of theatre at
the Brass Rail.
“We want to show people that
the theatre and bar scene can go
together,” Demars said.
Demars said he has already re
ceived requests to produce future
shows at the Brass Rail.
“Hopefully, people can come,
see some good theatre and have a
great experience at the Brass Rail,”
Demars said.
The show opens Wednesday
night and runs through Saturday at
the Brass Rail. Admission is $1
plus the roll of a die. Cocktails are
at 7:30 pjn. and the show begins
at 8 p.m. Minors are permitted to
the show only.
SOME THINGS ARE MEANT
TO BE CLOSED
YOUR MIND ISN’T ONE OF THEM.
For decades, MDA has shown
how valuable people with
disabilities are to society. We
believe talent, ability and desire
are more Important than
strength of a person's muscles.
The one barrier these people
cant overcome Is a closed mind.
Keep yours open.

Of course, there’s the stem and
inept commanding officer (played an
noyingly by Dean Stockwell) and a
love interest (Debra Messing) who
doesn’t really have any on-screen 1
chemistry with Arnold. Tim Curry’s
(‘The Rocky Horror Picture Show”)
Vladkov grows less and less amusing
as the story proceeds.
The film is also graced with cam
eos by Ernest Borgnine (the original
McHale) and Tommy Chong.
This movie, by no means, was a
masterpiece. It was built around a ri
diculously predictable story line and
garnished with juvenile humor. But
some of the sight gags and throw-away
lines catch the audience off-guard,
giving Arnold a likable on-screen
presence.
One of the biggest surprises of the
film was the well choreographed boat
chase in the beginning, which was
reminiscent of the James Bond clas
sic, “From Russia With Love.”
And although it is highly unlikely
that this film will reach the Oscars, it
does provide a couple hours of mind
less release from the tensions of the
day.
