September 26, 2007 To recap last week: university sucks, so why not pretend you’re in a wacky college movie and make things more exciting? Here are the top five college movie characters to imitate. 
5. Frank “The Tank” Ricard
Will Ferrell in Old School
Do I really need to explain why you should copy Frank the Tank? This man sacrificed his marriage to get drunk and party with his friends. That’s dedication and, frankly, I’m not seeing that kind of dedication from you, random University of Windsor student. I walk into Leddy and I see all of you, ugh, studying. What the hell? >> |
Rumors delivers laughs, not much plot By Melissa Ray Arts Editor September 19, 2007 In his promotional letter for Neil Simon’s Rumors, Bill Pinnell recounts Simon’s recipe for the perfect farce, saying that, “the simplest aspect of farce is you need a lot of doors. And have a lot of people go running in and out of them, just missing each other. Generally speaking, in a farce people in trouble are trying to withhold information from other people.” Simon’s takes this idea and runs with it. 
Rumors follows a unique and entertaining cast of characters as they bust themselves, running on and off stage in an attempt to resolve and cover-up the suspected attempted suicide of an unseen character named Charlie. When Chris Gorman (Lindsay Sippel Eitzen) and her husband Ken (Ryan Collins) arrive early to a dinner party they discover that their best friend has been shot through the ear and his wife is missing. >>

Lament simple, yet intense By Andrea Keelan Lance Writer September 26, 2007 Attention all mechanical engineers: art isn’t just for the people in the Visual Arts program.
Ontario artist Michael Waterman has created a piece that will tantalize even the most mechanically inclined people. His current exhibit at Artcite is something that will get both left- and right-brainers thinking.
Lament is an interactive sound installation piece that features ordinary technology used in an extraordinary way. Upon first walking into the Artcite gallery one would think that the space was being rewired and that the electrician was on lunch break. Wires are hung on the walls and strange contraptions hang from the ceiling. On closer examination, you realize that this is the exhibit in all it’s refined, but technical glory. >>
