'Man of La Mancha' Spectacular
By BECKY CHITESTER
When a man exists in his own dreams we call it madness. But what title do we afford it when he calls it madness? We dream and an audience begins to believe in the reality of the world. We suffer from the madness we suffer from the madness
Folk Duo Involves Audience
By MELISSA BERG
Kanean Reviewer
The Sand County reached out and the audience grabbed hold for three light and lively performances at the SUA Middle School on Saturday and Saturday night in the Kansas Union Hawk's Nest.
Passing out incense and circulating among the audience with vocal invitations to "Sing with us" was a way established a refreshing, uplifting audience rapport, which Vandiver said is part of their entertainment philosophy, "to entertain them and them and them a part of us."
Sand County's unique methods of audience involvement were matched by their variety of arrangements and vocal techniques.
Jerry Vandiver and Pam Keefer, the multi-talented Kansas City duo, removed the barrier between performers and audience through a variety of participation techniques.
Their repertoire, largely comprising John Sebastian's son and Garfunkel's arrangements of tunes by Simon and Garfunkel, Brewer and Papilio, Carr and Mary. Two of their own songs, "Cry of Innocence" and "Beguin' Creek Refuge", both have greeted personal feelings of the duo.
Mrs. Keefer's melodious, clear voice filled the room throughout the evening and particularly striking in Leonard Cohen's "Susanne." Bob Dylan's "Tom Thum's Blues" and a "Cry of Innocence."

evoked by believing in the reality of a man's dream?
Good harmony marked their performance, as well as other elements of the poem, in continual variety in their style. Lines of poetry were spoken, then sung, and often one of the duo sang and was joined by the other.
Adding an extra dimension of lightheartedness to their songs was the use of kazos. The duo was the subject of a new book by Sebastian's "What a Day for a Daydream" and later the audience provided kazoo accompaniment in the "Ballad of the Jack-cox," by Simon and Garfunkel.
Vandiver attributed their wide use of Sebastian's music to the fact that he reflected many of Leopold's ideas.
Their name, Sand County,
closely parallels these feelings,

As the encore of the final show, the duo sang "Squaw Creek an original work, which Vandiver and I want to say what they feel and try to say in their music—that man must make natural beauty and oeuvre.

"Man of La Mancha" has been called a play within a play. Even with the play's setting within a dream. The dream of Don Miguel de Cervantes, the playwright is enhanced by the Quizote, Cervante's character.
KANSAN reviews
Cervantes' dream is that of a goodness and beauty he can find. Quixote is that man. Quixote lives in a world of his own creation—a kingdom where everything is world where a妖 becomes an angelic fad and thieves become an evil monster.
Because of the dreams of this man—Quitkite-Cervantes in one man (Kenneth Smith)—others begin to dream. The world where man hope is installed where there only despair and disillusionment.
The cast for the University Theatre production of 'Man of La Mamie' in this play-play-weight actor. Quixote-Cervantes, to life in the desolate gloom of dungeon and a room with a death-bed
The Small Symphony, con
ducted by George Lawner, added greatly to the performance. He was backstage there, no phone contact between the conductor and the vocalist. This eye-opening music touched many musical; however, the timing was nearly perfect and the song carried off well despite the noise.
The music set the mood for the play (the Impaled Dream) and the Dulcinea" instilled the general feeling of the play—a feeling of
The strange walls - a dungeon with high walls and arches and a stairway lowered - was exceptional. It was perfect for the adaptations
While its style of delivery and its interpretation of songs was mostly in a lighter style, the quality of the member's voice changed over time. The choreographed movements provided second and third dimensions which were much involved than one might expect.
Kennett Smith as *Quixote-Cervantes* was a demanding audience. He sensitization of the audience with his voice. But the demand figure if Smith is the Quixote-Cervantes character is to question the quismation and is awaiting trial. lie is not the man filled with the confidence for his life as well as his dream.
The members of the group all have fine voices and they blend with skill. However, the most exciting numbers on the program were those where one member step out and solo with the group.
Marylyn McCoe gave especially exciting performances in many numbers as her beautiful voice was able to show how she then slowly melted away at the end of a solo, or as it soared above the other voices of the group when she gave her own performance of a particular song.
Quixote-Cervantes changes when others begin to believe his dungeon. When he leaves the dungeon, possibly death he is renewed, he believes more firmly in his world throughout the play. As Cervantes he is never a man facing possible death, as Quixote he is never broken by the downfall of his dreams.
Billy Davis, another member of the group, also came through with good solo work in a number of his projects. The group's "Aquarius" finale.
Throughout the concert the group performed choreographed movements with their songs. In a few instances they seemed to have been supplemented by a satisfying visual supplement to the musical offerings.

The prisoners who share the dungeon with Cervantes and become the family, friends, and allies of Quixote in the life of Quixote are real.
The highlight of their work with movements. *People Emotional*, *Free* Free, "would have been a crazy photographer's delight. Members of the group seemed to cover the earth, carrying wildly interesting movements.*
Rhonda Plymate as Aldonza—a whore who becomes the angel of her life—will probably believe. Her walk, her speech, the crudeness of her voice, the beauty of her smile.
The Fifth Dimension gave a concert that had at least five good dimensions in its first Kansas City appearance Saturday night
Another dimension of the
Mandy Patkinin as Sancho, the manservant of Cervantes-Quixote, was captivated. He was a peasant, filled with the story of who followed Cervantes-Quixote wherever he might go.
The biggest dimension was the good will that the group exhibited to the athletes, in terms of which went to the Niles team. The group, however, showed considerably more good will than the athletes who only show up on 6,000 street.
The entire cast can be commended for a spectacular performance. The story of the playwright, cast into prison and accisting of his dream by his fellow performers were truly realistic.

Janet Baker
Perhaps best known as a rectalist and a sculptor, Mozart works by Mohler, Bach, Brahms, Mozart and Britten, Miss Baker has also been called the most proficient roles. Her most notable performances have been as Dido in "Donizel" and Borloz's "Les Troyeens," as well as Dorabella in "Mossi" Cost
The Sept. 21 issue of "Time" magazine describes Miss Baker's supernatural voice, medium-toned liquid, flowing quality and a vast spectrum of local color that she developed a vocal technique
which "allows her to negotiate everything from strenuous Berliozian outbursts to limpid Rossinian coloraturas."
Miss Baker began her career in 1985 when conductor Anthony Lambert took over the orchestra's new recording of the Purcell opera a frequent performer with the band. In addition, she has also toured the Soviet Union, German state and the United States.
Miss Baker's American debut was with Jose Krisp in April 1966 at San Francisco, when she appeared on the show "Erde." Her New York debut in the winter of 1966 created such a success, and she impressed impresario S. Hurok, brought her back from London for a sellout recital at Carnegie Hall only a month ago.
Her repertoire tonight will include selections by Schubert, Mozart, Beethoven, Debussy, Tousse and Gounod.
KU students can present their LD's at the Murphy Hall box office for free reserved tickets for her performance. Special season programs are offered for faculty members and their 'amities at the box office.
