Allen Wiechert, director of facilities planning, said that the project so far was within its $14.7 million budget and that some minor construction delays would not prevent the center from opening on time in September 1993. Universal Construction Company of Kansas City, Kan., is building the center, which is located on West Campus near the intersection of 15th and Iowa Wiechert said that work on the concrete superstructure was finished and that workers had started laying bricks on the exterior of the building. Exterior construction should be completed by May of 1993, with interior construction, including carpet, seating and acoustical work, ending by the September opening. streets. The center will contain a 2,080-seat recital hall, several lobby and reception areas, and offices for the KU Concert Series, Wiechert said. The center is designed to be expandable in the future, either by adding a smaller recital hall or expanding the existing main hall. Faculty in the School of Fine Arts said the center would be an important addition to KU's performing arts program. *Everything on the concert series will be located there.* said Jacqueline Doyle. In addition, the center could be home to faculty lectures, Student Union Activities, and Rock Chalk Revue. Davis said the center would allow the University to more easily accommodate both performers and audiences. The largest existing concert hall on campus, Crafton-Preyer Theatre, seats 1,182 people. The new hall will be more than 900 seats larger. The Lied Center also will be more accessible than either Crafton-Preyer or Hoch Auditorium, which was used for large performances before last year's fire. The center will contain several rehearsal rooms and dressing rooms, which will provide better facilities for performers than currently exist at KU, Davis said. Summer theater group to stage seasonal classic By Julie Wasson Davis also said the first performance in the center would take place sometime in Fall 1993. But the details of the concert are not completed. Kansan staff writer Early summer is a great time to perform a romantic comedy. That is one of the reasons director John Gronbeck-Tedesco gave for choosing William Shakespeare's "As You Like it" for this summer's University Theatre production. "It has seasonal aptitude," said Gronbeck-Tedesco, head of the department of theatre and film. The play will run June 10-12 and 17-19. All performances will be at 8 p.m. in the Crafton-Preyer Theatre. Admission is $6 for the general public and $3 for KU students. Gronbeck Tedesco said that he chose not to stage a traditional performance of the play. Instead, the setting will be the United States during the 1930s. He said that the characters in the play also helped him decide on that "The U.S. was going through the Great Depression at that time." Gronbeck-Tedesco said "Right now the U.S. is in a recession, which I think could be more accurately described as a depression. So there's that connection." "The locals are country folks, basically," Groebke-Tredeco said. "The rest of the play is essentially the story of people with these people in the woods." Gronbeck Tedesco also plans to use clothes and music from the 1930s. "It's going to be a lot of fun, I think," he said. FredScheff, Lawrence graduate student, portrays two characters in the play. "This play will be different for me because I have always done opera and musicals," he said. "This will be my first non-musical โ€” the first time I'll have to learn lines instead of music." Scheff said that he was glad to be doing Shakespeare. "He's an aw-en-inspiring playwright," he said. "I think this production will be challenging, but I think Tilley enjoy." The play is about a group of people who have left a royal court because of a scandal. They go to the woods and meet the townspeople. The request would increase CLA spending on the Iraqi effort to $40 million. The size of the proposed increase for fiscal 1993 reflects an admission that the U.S.led effort to oust Hussein has been ineffectual to date, according to unnamed government sources. The request follows a year of U.S. frustration and embarrassment over Hussein's ability to survive the political and military punishment from Operation Desert Storm and to reconsolidate his hold over Iraq. "Some of the characters in the play are criminals โ€” gangsters, really," he said. "Gangsters and crime were mythologized in the U.S. during the 1930s."
