Doc fails from page 3 Acting in a lead role in any play is a great responsibility and David Crowe's perform- ance as Sganarelle weakened the show in many spots. One problem, was that David tended to throw the dialogue at the audience, instead of . sharing his lines with them. Much of the fault does not lay with the actors, but with the possibility that the director did not spend enough time helping the actors refine their characters, thus resulting in the not quite polished per- formances of several of the characters. A major problem, which I mentioned eartler, was that pauses were used poorly. This resulted in total halting of action on the stage, or inap- propriate pauses, leaving one to think the actors had forgotĀ· ten their tines. My general feeling was that I was neither completely con- tent, when the play ended, nor completely satisified. One, the humor came in spurts and I was not sure what the playwrigfit was trying to con- vey to the audience. Two, the people who chose the play did so with the idea of chal- lening the actors and ac- tresses, but not challenging the minds of the audience. My suggestion is that the theatre department choose fu- ture plays that will appeal to the issues, attitudes, and If th-;;e's one thing undergrad It all mer-is you spend less of the package.
