voices out there," Wolff said.
Lysistrata
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
According to a press release from Wolff, the students read the play to let the Bush Administration know that they oppose a possible war on Iraq, provide humorous introduction to community dialogue and to raise money for organizations that work for peace and human rights.
The Rev Thad Holcombe,
Ecumenical Christian Ministry
minister, said he enjoyed the play.
"There's a timeless quality to the issue of peace," Holcombe said. "If anything, peacemaking needs imagination."
Holcombe appreciated the
theatrical symbolism.
Before the play began. Wolff told the audience that the reading paralleled 1,009 other readings yesterday, taking place in 59 countries and all 50 states.
The project was founded by Kathryn Blume and Sharron Bower, two New York actors. Wolff heard about the project about a month ago in a story on National Public Radio. She went online to the project's Web site and found that no one from
Lawrence was involved. Woolf sent out e-mails and asked her friends for help, eventually forming a cast of eight members. She found an anonymous translation online and condensed it so that the audience would not become complacent or bored.
The Greek playwright Aristophanes wrote the play in 411 B.C. It presents the tale of a group of women from opposing states who unite to end the Peloponnesian War. They take over the Acropolis, the building where the public keeps its fund, and refuse to sleep with any men until the men agree to stop fighting and work toward peace.
Beth Allin, Shawnee senior, played the lead role of Lysistrata. She said she had a great time performing. Though she was not involved in theater she chose to do the play to help out Wolff, a personal friend.
"I think it's fantastic to have people come together with a singular message and speak out on such a broad scale," Allin said.
The eight-member cast and director presented the play in a simple format. All actors dressed only in black, and there were only a handful of props, one bucket, a bottle of water, a Marilyn Monroe cutout and four balloons that served as phallic symbols for the frustrated male characters. The set was also simple, there were four signs attached above the stage and to the walls surrounding it that read : "Democracy Stinks Bring Back the Tyrants"; "Booty Boycott"; "Stop the Peloponnesian War" and "Girl Power".
The 29-member audience reacted to the play with laughs and cheers for the women pursuing peace.
Before the play began, the audience was separated into two sides of the floor, women sat to the left and men to the right. Wolff said she did this to play off gender tensions that are in the play.
"I thought it was a very comical way to get across a good cause for peace," said David Mitchell, Hays graduate student.
Mitchell said he opposed unilateral war and that the United States government should do nothing regarding Iraq without the United Nation's support. He thought that a real-life application of a sex strike would have some effect if it was a full-scale effort by all the women of the globe.

venting anger and love," he said. "I hate the classical music label. Music is music, and this was the music of his time."
Rachel Hunter, music director for Kansas Public Radio.
"It's like a docudrama," she said. "It's well thought-out and well-focused."
said Tibbetts had spent long hours interviewing famous musicians.
Hunter said Kansas Public Radio employees could be skeptical when people pitched show ideas because few of them
had detailed plans.
"But John spelled it out," he said. "He has done commentary and reviews for us, so we figured he'd do a good job."
Kansas Public Radio can be heard locally on FM channel 91.5.
