A medical doctor and social activist, Adams founded the Gesundheit Institute in 1972 as a cre- ative response to the health care crisis in a nation facing spiraling medical costs, dispirited care givers and alienated patients. It is Adams philosophy that healing should be a loving, human interchange, not a business transaction. His presentation at Western is the first stop on his WNC tour.

Patch Adams appearances in WNC are spon- sored by the Eastern Band of the Cherokee Indi- ans, Harrahs Cherokee Casino and Hotel, REACH of Jackson County, WestCare Health Systems, and Western Carolina Universitys Health Services Cen- ter and LCE Series. Patch Adams WCU OPI RELEASE will deliver a three-hour workshop titled Living a Life Western opens Theatre Season with Dancing at Lughnasa WCU OPI RELEASE The University Players of Western Carolina Uni- versity present the multiple Tony Award-winning play Dancing at Lughnasa by Brian Friel as the 2004-05 theatre season opens Wednesday, Sept. 29. The play runs through Sunday, Oct.3, in Hoey Audi- torium on the campus at Western. The memories of a young man bring this tale to life as he recalls childhood encounters with his family. The drama is set in 1936, and focuses on five unmarried sisters who all help take care of Michael, one of the sisters son. The family lives on a rugged farm outside of a small town in Ireland, where they share a gift of love for each other and the ones they love. This play is about a family, a bit ragged around the edges, a bit beaten down by life but not defeated, said the plays director, Stephen Michael Ayers, associate professor of communication, theatre arts and dance at Western. The family members start to experience changes as they prepare to welcome home a long-lost brother after 25 years, and the sudden arrival of Michael's fa- ther, who is a wanderer and a dreamer whose journey constantly changes destination. This is the last precious glimpse of the Mundy fam- ily together before they are torn apart by time, war and their need to pursue individual interests, said Ayers. The memories of love and loss of that summer haunt Michael into manhood. Time magazine called Dancing at Lughnasa the most elegant and rueful memory play since The Glass Menagerie. Young Michael Mundy (center, played by Michael Wannagot), a boy being raised by five unmarried sisters in 1930s-era Ireland, helps family mem- bers (played by Sara Dodson, left, and Miranda Pritchard, right) gather fruit in a scene from West- ern Carolina Universitys production of Dancing at Lughnasa. This play does exactly what the theatre was born : to do, carrying both its characters and audience aloft | in waves of distant music and ecstatic release that, in defiance of all language and logic, let us dance and dream just before night must fall, said The New York Times. Michael Wannagot plays the role of Michael Ev- ans and Claire Eye takes on the role of Kate Mundy, a character that Meryl Streep made famous in the 1998 movie version of Dancing at Lughnasa. The cast in- cludes Jillian Burfete, Jim Manning, Parker Millar, Mi- chelle Crabtree, Miranda Pritchard and Sara Dodson. Luther Jones is set designer, Glenda Hensley Dean is costume designer, Jim Irvin is lighting designer and Cara Ward is stage manager. Show times for all evening performances are 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 29, through Saturday, Oct. 2, and 2 p.m. for matinees Saturday, Oct. 2, and Sunday, Oct. 3. Tickets are $12.50 for adults, $10 for senior citizens and WCU faculty and staff, and $6 for students. Season tickets are still available. Season ticket prices are $45 for adults, $35 for senior citizens, WCU faculty and staff and $20 for students. Memberships also are available for the Patron Club, which provides financial support to the University Theatre for various projects throughout the year. Memberships are avail- able at the Actor ($250), Director ($500) and Producer ($1,000) levels.
