  • THE WESTERN CAROLINIAN/February 14. 1980/Page 5 Ghosts production multifariously praiseworthy By Wanda Crawford Contributing Writer The Little Theatre production of Ghosts is so multifariously praiseworthy the reviewer despairs where to begin. Ibsen's genious reunites, and will receive, no comment. The director, WCU senior Alex Norris, deserves downright laud for his ambition, sincere thanks for giving Cullowhee such significant drama, and a slap on the back and extra mush in his breakfast bowl for the production itself, lhc casl is admirable, albeit a motly crew whose only uniform characteristic is the physical appeal of its members; from the larcenous handyman Jacob Engstrand (Henderson Filleland) to the deluded Pastor Mulders (Morris Phifer), the east is one of the best-looking to tread the boards of this theatre in recent years. The cast and production staff, composed entirely ot students, this being the Third Annual Niggli Production, in honor of Theatre Arts Professor Emeritus Josefina Niggli, should be heartily praised -- for their industry, their courage in such a prodigious undertaking, their taste, and their ingenuity in putting everything together from a penurious university budget. There are only a few places where Norris' ingenuity fails him, and the most glaring is his placement of fenime latale Regina Engstrand (Janet Allison) and stuffed shirt Pastor Mander in positions from which they should each play antiphonally off the other's contrasting persona, but neglects to coach them on their vocal effects. One gets too lost in suffering through Allison's lilting sing-song whine and Phifer's trochaic-pentameter ranting to fully appreciate their dialogues. Thereby, some of the more potentially humorous moments in the play are obscured. However, both these actors are comparitively young and inexperienced, and their roles are demanding, even to pros. Both show promise. Both have their saving graces. Phifer, despite the way he makes obvious to his audience that he knows the punch line of the cosmic joke on Manders, has marvelous control of his movements, including a nervous drumming of his fingers on thin air, which Manders in real life might have used to keep his hands busy. Allison uses her cool beauty and appealing changes of facial expression to convince her audience that Regina is indeed the manipulator Ibsen created her to be. If only she did not so obviously parody her character... In contrast, Mrs. Alving (Elaine Armstrong), Ibsen's strong suffering, tragic widow of a philanderer and mother of a congenital syphillitic, ignites a totally willing suspension of disbelief on the part of her audience. Armstrong enters the persona of Mrs. Alving with compassion and sensitivity that do her great credit, especially when it is noted that many- stage-hardened pros will not touch this role; it is too complicated, too central to the hanging together of the entire play. Mrs. Alving is the sentient one. the lone detector of the "ghosts" that haunt her home. She is the one to untangle the sad knots; the tortured weavtngs of Fate. Yet, she is endowed, irrevocably so, with a sense of humor that enables her not only to hold up under one ignoble crisis after another, but to understand, even forgive, Fate. John Phillip Strickland, who plays the syphillitic son, Osvald Alving. is this reviewer's runaway favorite of the show. He becomes totally the character he plays, the dandy fresh for Paris cafe society, stricken and sardonic with the knowledge of his medical future. Osvold is an artist who has not painted since a physician at his own request, brutally sketched in for Photo Bv E. S. McDaniel him what the remainder of his life would be like, and tactfully placed in his oossesion a number of morphine pills to dispose with at his discretion. The final scene of the play, in which Osvald tells Mrs. Alving what will shortly begin happening to his body and mind, was well-executed by both Strickland and Armstrong. When Osvald actually begins to succomb to the softening in his brain, and starts to rave about "the sun, the sun, the sun, " which after the long Norwegian night has struck a few beams through the window, Armstrong convinces one that she is actually the mother torn by indecision. Should she nurse her son through the vegetable period to his death, or should she feed him the morphine? What she chooses is unclear; the play ends in her perplexity. The admission price, $1 for students with ID and $2 for other adults, is a very nominal one. Anybody with a fascinate for incest, adultery, veneral desease, larceny, arson, and oppulence, and some damn fine acting and technical effects, should see this play, which shows through Saturday.
