performing award.
The juggling was the highlight
of the show. Jonie Phillips, the
juggler in the act, impressed the
audience with such feats as
juggling two meat cleavers and an
apple, simultaneously, while
occasionally taking a bite of the
apple. He juggled clubs, apples,
flaming torches, and even Barbie
dolls. The finale of the
performance was when he juggled
three flaming torches, did 12
behind the back throws, threw one
torch up into a triple spin, twisted
his body around and caught the
torch.
The Phillips brothers were a
very talented act. They maintained
a good rapport with the audience,
and they looked like they had a
good time themselves. They even
took time after the show to meet
with people in the audience. It
was a fun filled evening for all to
get involved.

The Behrend studio theater's
production of the "The Diviners" by
Jim Leonard, which closed Nov.
20, can be described in one word:
spectacular!
The play is set in the mythical
rural Indiana town of Zion,
population 40, during the spring
and summer of 1932. The play
manages to blend humor and drama
into a homogeneous mixture that
keeps the audience laughing, while
at the same time forcing the viewer
to mentally deal with the
implications of what is taking place
underneath all of the humor.
The serious aspect of the play is
presented in the very first scene
with Basil Bennett, played by Bill
Warner, and Dewey Maples, played
by William Gibbard, discussing
their feelings about the death of the
main character Buddy Layman,
played by Tom Barra. The story
then jumps back and presents the

events leading to the first scene.
As the story line unfolds, the
play seems to be a comedy.
However, because of the
implications behind what is taking
place between the characters, the
viewer can't help but to deal with
the seriousness of the play. It is the
constant humor, subtle seriousness,
and building anxiety that makes
this play so fascinating.
The set for the play was well
done as was the lighting and sound
design. The costumes, makeup, and
props were very effective and helped
bring the play to life. The most
monumental attribute in this
production was the acting. Two
months of hard work and many
long rehearsals really showed. With
a little help from the viewer's
imagination, the simple
unchanging set in the Behrend
studio theater was transformed into
Zion, Indiana.
"The Diviners” was a great
play. Those who had a chance to
see it were lucky. Those who chose
not to see it missed out.
