David Rabe's Sticks and Bones is the story
of a pleasant American family in which
Ozzie remains nostalgic, Harriet makes
fudge and Ricky plays guitar. Into this
household walks David, an uneasy and
unpleasant son blinded in Vietnam.
The Playmakers have taken on the
development of this pleasant American
family and what emerges is an expertly
executed piece of stagecraft, performed with
a sure and sometimes brilliant feeling for
stylization.
Sticks and Bones is a difficult play to
stage, and it's much to director Duane
Sidden's credit that he has managed to
fascinate and horrify us to just the right
AmctSoEi' set
Baubles, bangles, bright beads and even
flying lessons are among the items and
services to be sold at the first annual
"Everything Goes" auction Saturday,
sponsored by the Chapel Hill Animal
Protection Society (APS).
Starting at 10 a.m. at the old red brick
factory in Carrboro, auctioneers Marvin
Saltzman of the UNC Art Department and
Dennis Donovan of the UNC English
Department will alternate throughout the
day.

f
degree at just the right times. What he's
dealing with is a simple, clean-living little
group disrupted by something ugly and
unwanted.
David is haunted by his memories, the war
and the girl he left behind. Harriet
recommends Ezy Sleep, for "the sleep you
need . . . the sleep you remember. Ozzie tries
to understand his son, just as he tries to play
Ricky's guitar, and with the same amount of
patience. All they're really waiting for is
"that fine bright day coming when we'll all be
a family again."
Margaret Burns is a wonder as Harriet.
The ideal American housewife and mother
trots off to the kitchen for warm milk at the
slightest provocation. She joshes with her
son and husband and marches around the
sofa with tiny coy steps, flirting, bickering
and forever smiling.
You can even hear the smile in Burns'
voice as later, you can fleetingly hear the
fear. Harriet is simple; she doesn't want
much only stability and normalcy.
Burns is a Harriet who says, "I don't
understand," when things become a little
confusing, but she says it in the same tone in
which she would say "Now, don't be
difficult," and then forgets it. Hers is a
performance which defines the limits and
tone set by director Sidden and which guides
the other players through.
Greg Vines plays Rick with such a
consistent naivete that, when he and Harriet

The brewers of Budweiser, in coopera
tion with ABC Radio, asked me to
remind you that April 22-27 is National
College "Pitch In!" Week.
All week, all over America, students
like you will be filling up litter cans
like me.
If there's an official "Pitch In!" Week
program in your campus community,
join up. If there isn't, you can still
support the national effort. Just pick
up any litter in your path next week
and bring it to me.

begin talking about a spot remover, we
realize we're in the middle of a commercial,
and the mood hasn't even been interrupted.
There are difficulties with Ozzie's role,
partly in the conception and partly in the
realization. Joe Simmons seems to be
rushing through a little too fast, not allowing
the stylization to impose itself on Ozzie. He
is the first, however, to look for explanations
and to become affected by David, and he's
not allowed the time for family satire allotted
to Harriet and Ricky. Almost immediately,
Ozzie is required to move from comedy to
confusion and frustration, and back again
several times. It's a shift which isn't
consistently handled and which may be
textually irremediable, but a little more
attention to timing and pace would help.
David Shepherd is fine in David's role as
the catalyst who isn't a comedian like the
others. His bitterness and rage, as well as his
manipulation of the family, are subtle and
well-defined. His only problems are the
playwright's to begin with, and Shepherd
doesn't accent them.
The whole scene is helped tremendously
by David Downing's evocative split-level set,
with David's stark bedroom becoming
whatever it need be, and the parents' modern
living room inescapably what it is. The
intimacy of the Graham Memorial Lounge
makes a convincing domicile and,
frighteningly, with Sticks and Bones, there
are many who could feel quite at home.
