'Sweet' Vocalists to Visit UNC
Sweet Honey in the Rock,

a cappella group, perform
tonight at Memorial Hall.
By Anna Pond
Staff Writer
Grammy award-winning Sweet
Honey in the Rock, a female a cappella
group, will bring its sound back to
Chapel Hill tonight in Memorial Hall.
Sonia Pratap, a member of the
Carolina Union Student Interests
Committee, said she helped bring Sweet
Honey back to UNC.
“They came here two or three years
ago, and they have a unique sound,” she
said.
Sweet Honey’s concert is one in a
series of presentations that celebrate
Black History Month at UNC.

Some things about Lab! Theatre’s
production of Harold Pinter’s “Betrayal”
are not very surprising.
For instance, three well-established
campus actors put on a great show.
What might be surprising is Charlie
Todd’s success in his first time in the
director’s chair.
The play revolves around a seven
year affair between Emma and her hus
band’s best friend, Jerry.

This year, it celebrates 25 years of
music with anew CD, 25. Tonight,
Sweet Honey will perform songs from its
latest release.
For the past quarter-century, the
group has enlivened the music scene
with songs drawing on a varied mix of
black musical styles that promote issues
of social conscience.
Pratap described the a cappella music
as a mix of spirituals and rhythm and
blues. Jazz and pop music also comprise

Chad Idol portrays Robert, the cuck

increasingly abusive relationship with
his wife. The implication is that long
after love is gone, the desire to do your
the group’s influences, forming a diverse
and distinct sound.
Pratap cited the group’s local popu
larity as one of the reasons for its return.
“They have a pretty good following
in Chapel Hill,” she said.
Sonny Browne, a senior from
Kelford, said he would be one of the
fans in the crowd tonight. He said he
learned of the group at a concert he
attended over Winter Break.
“They were outstanding. Their voic
es were so powerful,” he said.
Browne’s opinion is confirmed by
Sweet Honey’s 1988 Grammy for Best
Traditional Folk Recording for their ren
dition of Lead Belly’s “Grey Goose.”
Both Pratap and Browne said they
would not miss tonight’s show.
Pratap said, “I’m very excited about

spouse one better remains. We watch as
Robert’s initial pain of learning of the
affair gnaws on his pride for years. Four
years after learning about the affair,
Robert and Jerry finally discuss it.
Playing Robert’s best friend, Jerry,
Joey Riddle explores the dual nature of
Jery’s affair with Emma: the malice and
the love. He obviously enjoys the cloak
and-dagger secrecy of an affair with his
best friend’s wife. He also enjoys gloat
ing about it while lunching with Robert.
Emma’s motivation for the affair
remains less clear in this production. At
times Emma, played by Michelle Ries,
acts like the affair is simply a diversion
- something to do in the afternoons. At
other times, she seems devoted to Jerry
in a way she is not devoted to Robert.
It takes an exceptional director and
talented cast to give a complex play like
“Betrayal” its full power. With these key
ingredients, this production delivers a
stunningly honest interpretation of
Pinter’s play.

is another of Kinnaird’s concerns.
Kinnaird cited many problems caused
by rapid development, including sedi
mentation and poor air quality.
Kinnaird said the state must find the
common ground between development
and environmental protection.
“We need to sit down and rethink
these issues,” Kinnaird said. “We can
find a sustainable balance providing
adequate jobs for citizens as well as
maintaining the quality of life.”
In the past, she has championed a
diverse range of legislation from satellite
voting sites on college campuses to pet
neutering to regulating hog farming.
Many of these bills eventually passed,
but some required help from the
Republican-controlled House.
“I was able to work with the House to

make sure some of these bills got
passed,” Kinnaird said.
Kinnaird credits such bipartisan
cooperation for getting bills through in
the past and is looking for repeat coop
eration in the current session, where the
Democrats control both chambers.
And senators from both parties are
looking forward to working with
Kinnaird in her new position.
Sen. John Garwood, R-Alexander,
served with Kinnaird on the Senate
Agriculture Committee last session. He
said that while he respected the senator
and her views, their philosophies were
not the same.
“She doesn’t pull up at the same point
I do,” Garwood said. “I find her some
times extremely interested in one point
of view at the expense of all considera
tions. She just has a liberal philosophy.”
Despite their different viewpoints,
Garwood said he found Kinnaird easy
to work with and welcomed her strong

Sen. Austin Allran, R-Catawba, said
he admired Kinnaird for sticking to her
principles, even when they strayed from
the majority. “She stands up for what
she believes in, and that’s what every
one should do,” Allran said.
Sen. Brad Miller, D-Wake, said the
chairmanship was an important job
because of the high volume of legislation
which goes through the committee.
“Each year about one quarter to one
third of the General Assembly’s bills
come through the State and Local
Government Committee,” Miller said.
Kinnaird said she was ready for the
challenge and planned to to use her new
position to serve her constituents.
She said, “I hope to have close rela
tions with local government and to pass
legislation they want.”
