Bawdy Taylor Swings in 'Zee'
By BARBARASCHMIDT
Kansan Reviews Editor
Elizabeth Taylor is clearly the issue in "X & Y Zee" (Granada Theatre). She leads the movie on a visit to the theater, letting go of the reins, and the result is a boisterous performance that's pure joy to watch.
"X Y & Z" IEEE'tt, however, doesn't rise to Taylor's standards. Edna O'Brien's script takes place in late spring on Taylor's philandering, architect-husband (Michael Caine) falls in love with a serene young widow who runs a boutique (Susanann. York). Taylor becomes more upset than usual with her husband's latest affair
Dance Society To Perform This Weekend
Tau Sigma, honorary dance fraternity, will present its annual dance concert at 6 p. Friday in the Student Union day in the University Theatre.
The program will consist of 14 dances with a variety of ballet, dance company and choreography but two of the dances were choreographed by Tau Sigma members. Those who attended the Sigma family advisers, Elizabeth Sherbon, associate professor of physical education at Ludwig, instructor in dance.
Traditionally, students decide what will be presented and choreograph much of the program themselves. This means that they are the most important part of the fraternity, according to Sherborn.
The dances are usually performed to records and tapes, but also some which are performed to live guitar and harmonica accompaniment with singing by the student composer Daniel O'Connor. The composition for Tau Sigma by a choreographer who piece choreographed the dance to accompany it. A third piece will use a new technique for Tau Sigma; it will be performed without it.
Tickets for the concert are on sale in 201 Robinson or at the door. Students will be admitted free.
and gathers up her weapons to wage war against both Caine and York. She launches a verbal attack on both Caine and York, she engages in hand-to-hand battle with Caine; and she even slashes her wrists in an overflowing bathhut. But such violence desperately finally lands on the ultimate weapon: her body. Susan Caine, the sister of Susannah York, who was out expelled from school for falling in love with a nun. Needless to say, Taylor demolishes York and York becomes the battered fruits of victory.
'O'BRIEN'S DIALOGUE is wiry and wry throughout. Susann York make admirable do something with roles that are doomed to be flaccid And everyone in the party chic party hidden beneath an effusion of silver-breasted steals the too few she's about to face.
But none of these brownie points can hide the central flaw in 'X Y & Zee'. Why does it all happen? Why can't Caine so obviously dependent on each other? Why, after years of putting up with her husband's extracurricular activities, does Taylor suddenly balk? And how, too, does she seem spiteful, drawing marriage lasted this long anyway?
IT REQUIRES more than the usual suspension of disbelief to accept all the premises O'Brien and director Brian G. Hutton and worth the extra effort just to see Ebrahim Taylor in top form.
I readily confess to never having particularly enjoyed Taylor's adult performances, such as "The Ruddy Roof" "Suddenly Last Summer" and "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" cannot be slighted, but she's had memorable roles there was always something missing. Maybe it was the depressing seriousness of the scripts. Maybe I should have been a Great Actress. I don't know. But in "X Y Z & Eee" I found myself not only respecting her performance, but myself from bellowing "Go, Liz!" She puts in a five-dimensional performance and, time in my memory looks like she's actually having a ball doing it.
'Chase' Takes Control With Glorious Sounds
By MIKE BICK
Kansan Reviewer
Bill Chase, who got his start several years back playing guitar and banjo, has become an instrumental-vocal group in 1970, aimed at playing hard rock. He was born in Brooklyn.
Getting their start in Las Vegas, Chase (the group was named after their leader obeyed a police one of the most popular groups around. Two years of playing together and two albums later, they are now one of the magnificent sound Saturday night at the RU KELLS Concert with some of the most glorious music ever to shake the rafters of Las Vegas.
From the beginning of the concert, Chase took control of their audience with sounds ranging from hard-driving, industrial bass to mellow jazz. Starting with a number called "Open Up Wide." Chase quickly established themselves as a very talented, unified group with the ability to generate an amazing display in a beautiful festival of sound.
Playing many selections from their newest album "Enone" on Sunday, the concert came when the lead singer, G. Shin, invited the audience to clap along to a song by a drummer in the River. At that point, the
assistance physically got into the music, not only clapping, but dancing and stomping in the aisles, in front of the stage and in their seats, letting the failful chance of Charge come over them.
Special recognition for Saturday's performance should go to Bill Chase himself. As the drummer, he strained his varied talent through some of the most exquisite technique I have ever heard. He went on to play with the band loving it, letting the sound caress his audience, then suddenly assaulting our ears with biting, twistery notes, never letting up for a minute.
The concert concluded with the group's hit "Get It On," which brought down the house.
