Lippman is being sponsored by the Carolina Committee on Central America in coordination with Human Rights Week. Lippman takes the tunes of pop ular songs and replaces the lyrics with biting satires and harsh insights into American political society. To coun Musical sends message off hope for peace betweeiii t,S.9 Soviets By RICHARD SMITH Staff Writer v It stands to reason that a conver sation between an American and a Soviet teenager would eventually turn to the nuclear arms race, but to actually decide to do something about it takes more than mere chit-chat. Yet the two teenagers in "Peace Child," a musical that gets its central North Carolina premiere this week end in Chapel HU1, do precisely that. Through media coverage at where else in Chapel Hill? a basketball game in the Smith Center, they take their message of world peace to the point where change is not just possible but likely. Bobbi and Katya figure that if they can be friends, then everyone else can be too, including presidents. Cara Gerard, a sophomore at Chapel Hill Senior High School, plays Bobbi, the American teenager. Gerard said the musical gives her a sense of hope. "I was watching the news the other day and saw the bombing in Iran, which is terrible," she said.

"Peace Child" was writtenly two Englishmen, David Woollconle.ahd David Gordon, and since itiiebut in 1984, it has enjoyed wo: lwide success, including two tours f the; Soviet Union.

J I -J 1 REGULAR ENGAGEMENT STARTS WEDNESDAY his political grievances because humor is an effective tool for com munication. "You learn from political cartoons," he said in a recent tele phone interview. "You need ironies because they are pointed and they are the quickest way to get to the heart of the matter." According to Lippman, humor plays a large role in politics. "The trouble with political jokes is that some of them get elected," he said matter-of-factly. Lippman said the show did not become controversial until the Gren ada scandal in 1983. He has traveled meyer feel sure will bring things a little closer to home. Klausmeyer and Bratcher said they felt that the musical's strength lay in its realistic' approach. Rather than simply solve the world's problems overnight, the children create a situation where the leaders of the United States and the Soviet Union realize that they can work together. "You hear all sides of the nuclear arms debate," said Bratcher, "but it's the children who are the voice of sanity, always saying, 'It doesn't have to be this way.' The play doesn't .pretend that change is easy. It will still take a lot of work to make peace come about." The music, performed by a local group of musicians, is lively and often moving. The play also involves mime and dance, chorpographed by Susan Hartley. The set design, produced largely from scratch due to a lack of theater facilities, is by Peter Klausmeyer. "Peace Child" will be performed today and Saturday at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday at 3:30 p.m. at Binkley Church. Call 942-4964 for ticket information.

Some universities have refused Lippman's show, and people have walked out due to the controversial opinions presented during the show, Lippman said. "The show's not predictable," he said. New York's entertainment guide, The Village Voice, has described Lippman's style as "a cross between Tom Lehrer and the Clash, his politics a blend of Helen Caldicott and Che Guevara."
