ZOMBIES
From Page 5A
spread the word about zombies.
"It's not really going to be dis-
ruptive though, because in reality,
nothing anything any of them are

doing matters because the zombie
apocalypse is going to come and all
of them are goingcto get wiped out
if they aren't prepared," said LSA
junior and Zombie Master Doug
Fischer.
"There's no such thing as safe.
Only safer."

New University
Productions show
tackles Valentines
and violence alike
By DANIEL CARLIN
DailyArts Writer
Now that Valentine's Day has
passed, it finally seems kosher
to lay off the romanticism and
chocolate.
However, Armsand
love will the Man
still be in the
air tomor- Tomorrow at
row eve- 7:30 p.m.,Friday
ning, when andSaturday
University at 8 p.m. and
Productions Sunday at 2 p.m.
will present
"Arms and Lydia Mendelssohn
the Man" Theatre
at the Lydia Tickets from $10
Mendels-
sohn Theatre.
"Arms and the Man," one of
George Bernard Shaw's most
famous plays, is set in 1885, just

as the Serbo-Bulgarian War is
ending. Raina, a Bulgarian, is
engaged to a hero of war, Sergi-
us, who leaves for battle. While
Sergius is away, Raina finds the
Serbian Captain Bluntschli hid-
ing in her bedroom, begging for
refuge - a man more romantic
than aggressive. When Sergius
arrives home, both men are
under the same roof, and Raina
is forced to question her beliefs,
ideals and heart.
The play focuses on the
romantic and idealistic notions
of war and love.
"There is a big transition
occurring in the world when
the play is taking place," said
Music, Theatre & Dance senior
Paul Koch, who plays Sergius.
"We are moving out of the.
romantic age and heading into
the 20th century."
Ironically, Shaw wrote this
comedy as an "anti-romantic
comedy." It's akin to the day
after Valentine's Day, when
many people, after the exces-
sive explosion of romantic emo-
tion from the holiday, would
rather nullify love. In "Arms,"

Shaw wanted to highlight the
themes of war and not have a
"happily ever after" conclu-
sion. In fact, the play's title even
comes from the opening lines
of Virgil's "Aeneid," the famous
Roman saga that glorifies war
and heroism by men.
. Putting aside all that is red -
blood and heart-shaped choco-
late boxes alike - the play acts
as an interesting social com-
mentary about the cognitive
development of a host of themes
in society.
"Class struggles, war,
romance-versus-common
sense, status of women, institu-
tions of marriage," said direc-
tor and MT&D professor Philip
Kerr. "(Shaw) says a lot of cut-
ting-edge thought for its time
and for all of those issues."
Kerr reminds audiences that
the production is focused on
the play and text itself - he
describes the set as "attractive"
and almost "toy-like," though
it still retains a fairly stripped-
down essence.
"I think the ideas and char-
acters presented within the

play are easily accessible,"
Kerr said. "You are dazzled by
the language, but it is easy to
understand."
While the play is fairly
wordy, the cast imbues contem-
porary experiences into these
characters. MT&D junior Mar-
got McGrath, who plays Raina's
mother Catherine, explains that
in a scene when Sergius returns
from war, she brings into her
performance the memory of the
excitement that occurred when
Obama won the 2008 election.
"People were jumping
around and literally scream-
ing and dancing in the streets,"
McGrath said. You can use con-
temporary ideas and things that
you've experienced yourself to
understand that same mental-
ity."
"Arms and the Man" pro-
vides complexity on modern
day issues such as love and war
- making the play more apropos
than ever. Though the play was
written over a hundred years
ago, the struggles between
chocolate and ammunition con-
tinue.


JUSTIFIED
From Page 5A
embark on a routine track-down
of a sex offender, which leads to
the introduction for this season's
big bads, the Bennett clan - the
region's weed-growing kingpins -
comprised of the quietly ruthless,
180-proof, apple pie-swilling Mags
(Margo Martindale, "The Riches")
and her three sons. Jeremy Davies
("Lost") plays one of these kids, a
gimpy, surprisingly vicious-for-his-
scrawny-figure maniac. And while
it's nice to see Davies back on the
tube, he has yet to learn the art of
enunciation and all his dialogue
comes through as barely audible
whispers.
The addition of these color-
ful characters is welcome, but it
only worsens a problem evident
throughout the first season. "Jus-
tified" does a wonderful job of
developing Givens and a pocket-
ful of the more important antago-
nists, but every other secondary

character has nothing to do but
stand around as fodder for Givens
to bounce his jokes off of. All these
new inclusions mean even less time
for development of crucial persons
of interest who have already been
around for an entire season, like
Givens's boss, and especially his
partner - an African-American
woman who could spark a capti-
vating study of race relations in the
American South, but instead is only
given a few lines in the premiere to
mention her discomforting status
in thatasociety.
Otherwise, the premiere is "Jus-
tified" at its nerve-racking and
laugh-out-loud funny best, setting
off a series of intriguing myster-
ies that will gradually unearth
throughout the season - why in
tarnation Boyd Crowder is blowing
up mines, for one.
There's only room in this town
for one show - with a script as
lethally effective as a six-shooter,
first-class direction and great per-
formances of great characters, it
has to be "Justified."
