TWO PLAYLETS SET BY EXPERIMENTAL THEATRE
The Experimental Theatre program of State University
of New York at Albany will present two of the four playlets
contained in Renee Taylor and Joseph Bologna's comedy, "Lovers
and Other Strangers," on Friday, Nov. 8, and Saturday, Nov. 9,
at 7:30 and at 9 p.m. in the Arena Theatre of the university's
Performing Arts Center.
The play, directed by Sharon Swerdloff, examines the
underpinnings of love relationships through a series of comic
sketches. The first sketch, entitled "Brenda and Jerry", tells
the familiar byoy-wants-girl story. In the second playlet,
"Johnny and Wilma", Wilma's request that her husband make love
to her turns into a violent argument in which the male-female
sex roles are questioned. Taylor and Bologna handle the stories
delicately, combining universal issues with comic flair.
Experimental Theatre provides theatrical resources for
student actors, directors, and technicians who might not otherwise
have the opportunity to get practical experience working in their
particular fields of interest. Free tickets for all shows in the
Experimental Theatre program are available an hour before each
performance at the PAC box office (457-8606).

CHILDREN'S THEATRE PROGRAM AT SUNYA
The Experimental Theatre program of State University
of New York at Albany will present a children's theatre show,
"An Afternoon for Children," on Wednesday, Nov. 6, Friday, Nov. 8,
and Saturday, Nov. 9 at 4 p.m. in the Lab Theatre, which is located
on the second floor of the university's Performing Arts Center.
The script for the show was adapted by Jody Hiatt from
three stories: "The Dead Bird," which deals with the realities of
death through the eyes of children; "Where the Wild Things Are,"
which examines a child's imagination in coping with the restrictions
of parental authority; and "The Giving Tree," which points up the
beauties of love and the sense of fulfillment one feels as a re-
sult of giving love. Ms. Hiatt will be directing six SUNYA students
in ensemble for the production: Alan Silverman, Denise Fitzgerald,
Louise Itzler, Marilyn Spanier, Jim Barone, and Joyce Farra.
Experimental Theatre, one of the programs sponsored by
the SUNYA theatre department, offers an opportunity to student actors,
directors, and technicians not only to plan innovative theatrical
ventures, but also to produce these ideas on the stage. The entire
production--the basic concept, the design, and the actual running
of the show--is done by students.
All Experimental Theatre shows are open to the public.

The SUNYA English Department is sponsoring a reading of Joyce's
“Finnegans Wake“on Tuesday, Nov. 12, and Wednesday, Nov. 13, at 8:30 p.m.

English, and Harry Staley, professor of English, have adapted the script
and coordinated the visual effects. Andy Aldritch '75 has composed
electronic music, and Tom Varley, music teacher at Albany Academy for
Boys and a graduate student in music, is the general collaborator.
"Trial by Jury," a light opera, will be presented as part of the
SUNYA Experimental Theatre program on Friday, Nov. 15, and Saturday,
Nov. 16, at 7:30 and 9:30 p.m. each evening in the Studio Theatre.
The musical comedy, directed by Joel Gross, was the first Gilbert
and Sullivan success, and its style set the pattern for their later
and better-known works. The plot of the one-act play is simple: Edwin,
tired of the affections of his fiance Angelina, searches for greener
fields; Angelina, refusing to accept passively such rude treatment,
charges Edwin with a breach of promise suit. The ensuing trial is the
subject of the play, and the authors, through the use of satire, mock
the workings of "justice."
Admission to "Finnegans Wake" and "Trial by Jury" is free, and
the public is invited to attend. Tickets are available one hour before
@ach show at the PAC box office (457-8606).

PORTUGUESE FILM SCHEDULED AT SUNYA
"Sambizanga," a Portuguese film directed by Sarah Maldoror,
will be presented in the Recital Hall of the Performing Arts Center
at State University of New York at Albany on Nov. 15-16 at 8 p.m.
as the second in a series of distinguished and acclaimed foreign
films entitled "Prize International Cinema." The series is sponsored
by SUNYA's Office of University Affairs.
First-prize winner at the Carthage Film Festival, "Sambizanga"
is, to date, the most powerful feature film to come out of Africa.
The film mirrors the oppression and the search for a people's self-
rule in the form of a simple tale: a laborer, suspected by the authorities
of being a member of the Angolan national liberation movement, is
seized by the police and imprisoned. But most of the film focuses
on his wife's attempts to discover which jail he is in. The film
reveals, in touching detail, the poverty of the Angolans, whose lives
are tightly regulated by a colonial government.
Judith Crist of New York Magazine said of "Sambizanga": "With
remarkable tension to support her simple story, Ms. Maldoror goes
beyond the plot to tell us of a people's agony. And she does so in
such striking terms of simple humanity, with such cinematic sophistication
that we become deeply involved in what starts out as a near-travelogue
documentary about an exotic people."

PORTUGUESE FILM SCHEDULED AT SUNYA Page 2
"New York Daily News" critic Jerry Oster commented:
"Sambizanga" is that rare film whose first image, a torrential ocean,
forewarns that it will be out of the ordinary; whose performances
are so real that it is wrong to call them acting...; whose themes
are so plainly stated in its images that its language does not need
to be translated."
Director Maldoror, wife of Mario de Andrade, one of the leaders
in the Angolais resistance, was the assistant of Gillo Pontecorvo
on the filming of "The Battle of Algiers," "Sambizanga" is her first
feature film.
Single tickets are available for $2 ($1.25 for students or
senior citizens with identification cards), and series tickets are

NEW EXHIBITS AT SUNYA ART GALLERY OPEN NOV. 24
"Women in France," a photography exhibit; recent works
by John Tarlton and Laura Mandelson, candidates for the Master
of Arts in studio art; and a one-man-piece sculputre exhibition
by Norman Phillips will open at the University Art Gallery of
State University of New York at Albany on Sunday, Nov. 24, from
3 to 5 p.m., with a public reception.
“Women in France" has been organized by the French Government's
Cultural Services Department in collaboration with Elle, a French
counterpart of our Mademoiselle. The exhibit contains 58 color
panels and texts, complemented by films by and about women, depicting
women in contemporary France and their efforts "to reconcile
feminism and femininity."
Mr. Tarlton's graduate exhibition will feature recent
drawings and prints. Tarlton, a native Californian who was edu-
cated in New Zealand, concentrates on still life. Pointing to
the fact that everyday objects comprise his subject matter, Tarlton
commented, "These objects have a personal mythology all their own."
Laura Mandelson, who also will be exhibiting paintings and
prints, is a SUNYA graduate. Both students' work was included
in the New York State Celebration of the Arts Traveling Exhibition
in 1974.

Sculptor Phillips, a member of the University of
Massachusetts art faculty, will exhibit an intriguing sculpture
called "Transformation Box I" at the gallery during the Nov. 4-Dec.
period. The rationale of the piece is concerned with the creative
aspects of trying to incorporate opposites so that they become
a part of the same unity.
Speaking of his work, Mr. Phillips said, "The rationale of
my work seems consistently to reflect aspects of my life. Asa
retired colonel in the U.S. Air Force and an ex-fighter pilot with
an undergraduate degree in art, I always seem to be dealing in
opposites, the whole question of the military versus the arts. I
try to make the opposites in my work be seen in the same way."
All three exhibitions may be viewed during the University
Gallery's regular hours, 9 to 5 Monday through Friday, and 1 to 5
p.m. Saturday and Sunday. Those interested in further information
are advised to contact either Francoise Yohalem or Nancy Liddle at

SUNYA ART PROFESSOR AWARDED $5,000 PRIZE
Richard Stankiewicz, professor of art at State
University of New York at Albany, has won third prize in the
Society of the Four Arts sculpture competition, for which he
received $5,000. The $40,000 in prize money was provided from
$250,000 from the Ziuta and Joseph James Akston Foundation to
secure a major work to be displayed on the grounds of the Four
Arts complex in Palm Beach, Fla.
The competition has been considered the first major one
of its kind in several decades. One hundred sixteen major sculptors
from the United States were invited to participate and 68 submitted
scale models of proposed works. A sculpture, although not
necessarily the winner of the competition, eventually will be
commissioned for the rectangular avenue of palms leading to the
museum building itself.
Mr. Stankiewiez's entry was described by the Palm Beach
"Post" as "A ponderous, tilted drum shape held aloft above a great
solid square by a slender, diagonal tube." If accomplished, the
actual finished sculpture would be 16 feet high and 12 feet in
diameter.
Judges for the prestigious competition were John I.H. Baur,
former director of the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York;

INDIAN FILM SCHEDULED AT SUNYA
"The Adversary." an Indian film directed by Satyajit Ray,
will be presented in the Recital Hall of the Performing Arts Center
at State University of New York at Albany on December 6-7 at 8 p.m.
as the third in a series of distinguished and acclaimed foreign films
entitled "Prize International Cinema." The series is sponsored by
SUNYA's Office of University Affairs.
In the film, Director Ray treats with understatement and com-
passion the problems of a young man in India, problems that are not
unique to that country but are of a universal nature. The young man,
Sidhartha, must abandon his medical studies when his father suddenly
dies. Confused and idealistic, he is torn between the world of success
and the world of revolution. After much searching in all directions,
he begins at last to accept his individuality and to stand on his own.
Vincent Canby "New York Times" critic, said of the film, it "...
moves so quietly, with such seeming politness to jaded film senses,
that it takes a while to realize that, for all its somberness, it's
a particularly moving comedy...a clear and beautiful movie."
Tickets are $2 for the general public and $1.25 for students
or senior citizens with identification cards. The box office is open
1l a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday and one hour before each
performance.
