the Bonstelle Theatre production of
"One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest."

wrote the book for the Tony Award-
winning musical.
"In One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest,
we have a rebel, and in Man of La
Mancha, we have a rebel against society.
"I suppose it comes from deep within
me. I have never identified with normal
home life or a social or religious
group," said Wasserman. "I think of
myself as an outsider and quite often a
rebel. My mother and father died when
I was 12, and my family disintegrated.
I was launched straight into the Great
Depression and hit the road. For years,
I rode freights and lived by whatever
bits and pieces one manages. I know
the interiors of a lot of jails."
While the playwright built an educa-
tion and career as a self-taught loner
who chanced upon a theater job in
California, Roth is launching a way of
life ar the encouragement of his parents,
Linda and Steven Roth of Franklin.
"Being on stage is pure joy for me,"
he says. "It's completely different from
public speaking. I memorize the actions
as I read my lines, and the words just
seem to flow with the movement."
Roth, who has appeared in The Secret
Garden at the Hilberry Theatre and
Shakespeare's R and J at Wayne's Studio
Theatre, currently is taking classes in
directing, voice, movement and devel-
opment of drama. Soon, he will be
auditioning for summer stock work.
Looking beyond graduation, Roth
plans to stay in Michigan for a year, get
his union card and move to Chicago or
California. He thinks breaking into act-
ing in New York would be too difficult.
"I try to go to theater once a week,"
says Roth, who frequents the small ven-
ues, such as Planet Ant in Hamtramck,
to support other emerging actors.
"With these smaller shows, cast
members are dependent on words
instead of spectacle. They're really fight-
ing to give good performances, and
they show a lust for the stage.
