Jack Beasley To
Star In UNCe Play
How wfiuld .you EeacLif you_
lost nearly everything that
meant anything to your life in
a single clay’s time? Mad?
Frustrated? Sad? Or, possibly
react as Butley, with civilized
cynicism and biting wit.
The play, “Butley,” ex
plores the psyche of an En
glish university professor who
does lose nearly everything he
possesses in a single day.
The production, which is
presented by the theatre en
semble at the University of
North Carolina at Charlotte,
will begin April 1 in the Studio
Theatre in Rowe Arts Build
ing.
The charartoir of BuUey will
be portrayed by Jack Beasley,
acting chairman of the Crea
tive Arts Department at
UNCe and a theatre profes
sor. According to Beasley,
Butley is the typical English
professor. "I wouldn't like
him personally,■■ h« ^vpiojns
because of his apathetic na
ture. “1 admire him, though
because of his intelligence and
spirit.”
The entire play spans only a
single day’s time. Other cha
racters in the play are But-
ley’s wife, roommate, three
students and fellow profes
sors.
“Butley” is a biting come
dy, filled with “sardonic, nee
dling, feline, vituperative, ci-.-
vilized lines,” according to the
London Evening Standard.
Written by Simon Gray, it was
voted best new play of the
year.
