at the Pocono Playhouse, Mountain-
home.
winner of 3 Drama Desk Awards,
“Best Little Whorehouse in Texas”
was named by Time Magazine as
the ‘Standout Musical of 1978”.
Clive Barnes of the N.Y. Post
reviewed the play as a ‘‘Rumbus-
tious, genre musical, full of flavor,
charmingly accurate in it’s tonality
of place and time and best of all,
consistently amusing.”
The playis based on Larry L.
King’s magazine article in Playboy
Magazine of a real live country
bordello near Austin, Texas that fell
to politics, hypocrisy and moral
fervor in 1973. The book by King &
Peter Masterson takes us to Miss
Mona’s establishment ‘‘out past the
Bad Curve sign’ and affectionately
called the Chicken Ranch because
in depression times, farmers
brought chickens instead of dollars
to pay for their ‘‘purchases’.

ist Church, Harveys Lake. The
showing, open to the public free of
charge, is scheduled to begin at 7:30

The film, a true story, takes a
close look at a woman who was
searching desperately for love and
acceptance, but whose cries went
unheard by those who surrounded
her.
NO LONGER ALONE traces the
life of an English actress, Joan
Winmill Brown. Though she sky-
rocketed to fame on the British
stage, her life was marked by a
frantic grasp for personal fulfill-
ment and love. Tormented by a past
she was unable to forget, she suc-
cumbed to a series of nervous
breakdowns; and, at one point,
attempted to take her own life.
Film
(Continued from page 9)
of guilt and paranoia grow as he
tries to find out from the govern-
ment bureaucracy just what it is
that he has done. The film features
Anthony Perkins, Jeanne Moreau,
Orson Welles, and Romy Schneider.
The final film, shown on Decem-
ber 5, is Luchino Visconti’s adapta-
tion of the classic Thomas Mann
novella, Death in Venice. Visconti
considered this film as the culmina-
tion of his lifelong ambition, and it
won for him the Grand Prix 25th
Anniversary Award at Cannes in
1971. The movie examines the
artist’s search for purity and beauty
which leads him to Venice where he
becomes infatuated with a young
boy. Mann has said that he had
Gustav Mahler in mind when he
conceived the artist and Visconti
has incorporated Mahler’s Third
and Fifth Symphonies into the pro-
duction. The film stars Dirk
Bogarde, Bjorn Anderson and
Marisa Berenson.
Films for the Spring Series
include Little Big Man based on the
novel by Thomas Berger, East of
Eden from John Steinbeck’s novel,
Barry Lyndon from the novel by
William Thackery, Crime and Pun-
ishment based upoln Fyodor Dostoy-
evsky’s novel, Women in Love from

and cinematic technique. Most of
