February 1, 1980
The USO Theatre Workshop Group
Prepares for three one-act plays
The USO Theatre Workshop Group,
calling themselves the Thalians, are
deep in rehearsal for their debut at
dinner theatre performances at the
Top of the Rock on Friday and Sat-
urday nights, Feb. 23 and 24. They
will present three one-act plays
directed by Jim O'Connor and Pat
Lockwood.
The trio of plays will open with
"If men Played Cards as Women Do,"
a riotous spoof of a woman's bridge
foursome. In this case it's a poker
game at the home of John, played by
Pete Bell. The poker players, Bob,
George and Marc will be played by
Bob Ford, Don Washek and Joe Kala-
jian respectively. The men exchange
gossip, discuss interior decorating
recipes, fashions and the servant
problem while trying to get through
their poker game.
The second play, "Coming Through
The Rye," is a fantasy by William
Saroyan. It concerns a group of
people in a celestial waiting room
just before they are born. They now
know their destiny and receive their
earthly instructions from the Voice,
who is Rick Gammon. Nine-year old
Butch is C.B. Mordan, remembered
locally as Tiny Tim in Mr. Scrooge.
Jim O'Connor portrays Old Mr. Car-
roll;" Steve, who knows his destiny
is to commit murder, is played by
Joe Kalajian; young Alfred, a
troubled teen-ager even before he is
born, is David Sault; Don Washek
will play Hastings who will be mur-
dered by Steve." The roles of Peggy
and Miss Quickly are filled by Mary-
anne Silvertooth and Patricia
Ehlers.
The third play, "Infancy," is an
outlandish burlesque set in New
York's Central Park. A Keystone
Cop, played by Don Wasek, makes
amourous advances to nursemaid Mil-
lie, Maryanne Silvertooth, while
Baby Tommy watches. Mike Penick
will be Baby Tommy. Enter Mrs.
Boker and her Baby Moe, otherwise
known as Jim O'Conner and Pete Bell,
and the plot takes off into slap-
stick as the two babies try to fig-
ure out the facts of life.
The two performances are for the
benefit of the USO expansion fund—
and the admission price includes
prime rib dinner with wine and per-
formance. Tickets will be available
at the USO and the Top of the Rock.
Cultural happenings
Just what is—"What's Happening
Off-Base Activities"? It's an in-
formative five minute program which

ate.
