'No Place': Uneven

By MICHAEL PRINCE
With forcefulness and energy,
No Place to be Somebody open-
ed at Mendelssohn Theatre on
Wednesday night. The Univer-
s i t y Showcase production
achieves a general level of real-
iAm that manages to overcome
the more uneven quality of the
acting and the play itself.
Charles Gordone's work falls
into an eternally popular genre
among American playwrights:
the barroom play. It is a ,yle
that is susceptible to cliche,
melodrama, and stereotypical
characters - and this play has
some of each.
YET IT IS also a style that
allows an author to present di-
verse characters, usually from
the seemier side of society, and
use them all to express n i s
vision of life. Gordone uses this
technique to offer several per-
spectives on the black exper-
ience in this country.
At the center of Gordone's col-
lection is Gabe Gabriel, a pa-
tron of the bar and representa-
tive of the playwright within the
show. Gabriel's monol gues
contain Gordon'e's best writ-
ing, and Eddy Galloway delivers
them with appropriate irony,
wit, anid power.
Gabe within the context of
the barroom is not as carefully
delineated a character. Never-
theless, Galloway's performance
as this other Gabe projects a
vagueness that is not entirely
Gordone's fault.
THERE IS nothing unclear
about Johnny Williams, t h e
unscrupulous bar owner, or
Jesse D. Goins, who portrays
Williams superbly. Williams is
dynamic, flamboyant, and wil-
ling to-do anything - includingj
pimping and blackmailing - i
order to get along and get
ahead.
