"'FRANKENSTEIN MEETS THE WOLF MAN"
Lon Chaney and Bela Lugosi
"GOLDRUSH" Charlie Chaplin
"THE GREAT CHASE" W. C. Fields
By JILL CRABTREE
Will Charlot, prince of tlie
Franks, earn his right to a throne
at his father's aide? Will the wick-
ed sorceress Falerina capture the
magic sword Durendal and en-
slave the royal court? Will Roland,
a raged peasant boy, prove his
bravery and his true identity, or
will he be punished as a worthless
traitor?
If Descartes and Plato and An-
thro 131 are beginning to pall,
take a break from cramming for
your mids and go see the Univer-
sity Children's Theatre production
of "The Magic Horn." True, you
will have to suspend your disbe-
lief for the duration, even if you
are twelve. Parts of the play are
too corny for even a child to take
seriously. The opening scene comes
complete with spear carriers
(played gamely by John Garake
and David Woycke). But ;f you
decide it's camp, you can enjoy
yourself anyway.
The play opens in an imagina-
tive version of a castle court.
Multi-colored bricks frame candy-
striped pillars and stained glass
windows. The spear carriers enter
to announce the arrival of the
emperor Charlemagne. He is a
gray-bearded, stern-but-gentle old
man, played believably by Calvin
Rice. He is met by his cowardly
and dishonest son Charlot, who
begs his father to give him a
chance to "prove himself."
Later we meet Bertha; a poor
peasant woman, and Roland, her
son. Roland has come to serve the
emperor. Anne Richmond as Ber-
tha, acts just like a mother, warn-
ing him that he will get into
trouble..
Roland and Charlot are played,
respectively, by Timothy Pott, a
student at Tappan, Junior High
School, find Robert Garrett, a For-
sythe pupil. They make the usual
mistakes of novice actors, speak-
ing their most important lines a
little too loudly and moving
around awkwardly on stage. Their
characterizations are workable,
however, and improve as the play
progresses.
The real stars of the productionI
are Roberta Raider and Gilda'
Radner in the roles of the sorce-
ress Falerina and her siren An-
gelika. Miss Raider's evil grimaces
and throaty cackles set her aud-
ience booing and hissing in all the ;
proper places. Miss Radner is
beautiful but deadly, the kind of
women who lures children into en-
chanted gardens and then never
lets them out. She doesn't play to
boos and hisses, but open-mouth-
ed silence.
If you must be intellectual, it is
possible to pretend that the play is
a study of class conflict, or a
period piece about the French
aristocracy. But it isn't, really, and
it is much simpler just to cheer
for the good guys.
