Jovce Plans Auditions
"The only thing I really want to do is quite simple. I want to be an *Ethel Merman-Rosalind Russell-ngrid Bergman*. That's all," said red haired Joyce Malicky, her green eyes flashing.
Miss Malicky, Baldwin senior, has already had quite a musical career.
A talented and well known KU couple will drive a hearse to New York after their wedding next summer to begin professional work in their respective fields.
Here are the backgrounds and ambitions of Castle and Miss Malicky
KU Actress, Fiance Plan New York Careers
LAST SUMMER she played "Meg" in the touring company of "Brigadoon." The cast toured the Far East, giving the show for armed forces personnel.
Miss Malicky has done two years of professional summer stock work in Dallas, Texas. She appeared in ten musical comedies including "The King and I," "The Most Happy Fella," "Guys and Dolls," "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes," "Oklahoma" and "Fajama Game."
SHE HAS worked with Johnnie Ray, Frankie Laine, Jane Powell, Janice Paige, Burgess Meredith, Jack Cassidy, Shirley Jones and Marie Wilson.
A FAMILIAR CHARACTER to
many on the KU campus. Miss Malicky has been in a wide variety of plays requiring versatile acting and singing ability.
In 1957 she appeared in "Man and Superman." In 1958 she played Anna in "The King and I," Mercedes in "Carmen" and Assunta in "Saint of Bleecker Street."
She portrayed Meg in "Brigadoon" in 1959, Dol Common in "The Alchemist" in 1960, and Cleo in "The Most Happy Fella" this year.
Miss Malicky said she felt KU has been very kind to her and has provided the necessary training for her field. "I am grateful for the wonderful theater building and equipment, the choice of productions, the Fine Arts School, my voice teacher, and the exciting KU audiences."
MISS MALICKY is a member of Delta Gamma social sorority, Mu Phi Epsilon, honorary music sorority, and University Players. Her busy activities still leave time for her to be a member of Mortar Board and a Hilltopper this fall.
CASTLE is an assistant instructor of Design. He graduated from KU in 1958 and went to work on his M.A. degree in industrial design.
Wendell Plans Studio
"My immediate plans are to start a studio in New York, possibly in the Village. That is, after I get my Masters in sculpture," said dark-haired Wendell Castle as he carefully worked on a sculpture piece he is doing of his finance Joyce Malicky.
Castle took a three and a half month vacation from school last year to work with the Radiation corporation in Orlando, Fla. During this time, he helped design the interior and seating arrangement of the proposed Moon Base.
THOUGH THE JOB was quite interesting, it was then that I decided
Castle then took a leave from the job and came back to KU to work on his Masters in sculpture which he hopes to complete in June.
I didn't want to be an industrial designer. I wanted to be a sculptor." Mr. Castle said as he leaned back and gazed fondly around his studio.
Concerning his wood sculpture, Castle said, "I believe I am the only sculptor in the U.S. today who works on and displays laminated sculpture." Laminated sculpture is a wood sculpture which, instead of being carved from one piece, is carved from many pieces and fitted together.
HIS WORKS have been displayed in hundreds of shows across the country. Last fall, he held a one-man show of sculpture in Kansas City and in May will hold another one in sculpture and painting.
Castle and Miss Malicky will be married June 24 in Miss Malicky's hometown. Their brothers, both Methodist ministers, will perform the wedding ceremony.
