Hersheypark Arena Wednesday,
Sept. 12 through Sunday, Sept. 16 for
eight fun-filled performances.
When Big Bird, the rarest of
warblers, is reported missing from
123 Sesame Street, an exceptional
expedition of the famous fowl’s
friends set out to find him. As a
result of the adventures and mis-
haps, the searchers Bert, Ernie,
Prairie Dawn, Cookie Monster, The
Count, Grover and Oscar the
Grouch are captured in this year’s
Sesame Street Live's ‘Missing Bird
Mystery.”
It’s a rare bird indeed that stands
eight feet tall, sports countless
golden plumes and is an interna-
tional celebrity. So, naturally, when
Big Bird, that one-of-a-kind canary,
mysteriously vanishes from his
home at 123 Sesame Street, more
than a few feathers are ruffled.

The Film Society of the Wilkes-
Barre Campus of the Pennsylvania
State University will present its film
series this year centering around
the theme of great novels made into
film. The 12 movies selected - Six in
the Fall and six in the Spring -
represent both some of the world’s
finest novels and some of the
world’s finest film makers. In keep-
ing with their interest in interna-
tional cinema, the society has
selected films and novels from the
United States, Italy, Germany,
Great Britain, Russia, and Czec-
choslovakia. Many viewers will
already be familiar with the novels
and since film is an inherently
different artistic medium, it is
hoped they will derive from this
series ‘a new perspective or new
insight on th theme of the work.
The first film, shown on Septem-
ber 12, 7 p.m., will be Milos
Forman’s film version of Ken
Kesey’s One Flew Over the Cukoo’s
Nest, starring Jack Nicholson,
Louise Fletcher, and Will Sampson.
In 1975, this movie swept all of the
major Academy awards and it
depicts the rather crazy attempt of
R.P. McMurphy to wake up the
patients of a mental hospital to the
fact that the difference between
sanity and insanity is only society’s
drive to stifle individualism. The
novel remains a classic statement
from the 1960s of social rebellion.
On September 26, The Devils, Ken
Russell’s film adaptation of the
novel by Aldous Huxley, will be
shown. The story takes place in 1634
and is a fairly accurate account
priest unustly accused of sorcery by
a group of secually obsessed nuns,
led by a hunchedback Mother Supe-
rior. Leading roles are played by
Oliver Reed and Vanessa Redgrave.
On October 10, Volker Schlon-
dorff’s cinematic translation of
Gunter Grass’ The Tin Drum will be
the feature. This Cannes and Acad-
emy Award winning film is the
story of Oskar, a young Polish boy
who after witnessing the horrors of
the Nazi invasion of Poland, his
mother’s infidelity, and father’s cru-
elty, refuses to grow past the age of
three. But his mind continues to
grow as he shrewdly observes and
condemns the world around him.
The fourth film, on October 24, is
Peter Brook’s filming of The Perse-
cution and Assassination of Jean-
Paul Marat as Performed by the
Inmates of the Asylum of Charenton
Under the Direction of the Marquis
de Sade (usually just called Marat:
Sade). The movie is based upon the
play by Peter Weiss and depicts the
final days in the life of Marat, the
famou leader of the French Revolu-
tion, as he and de Sade argue over
the idealism of the Revolution. The
movie stars Patrick Magee, Glend
Jackson, Ian Richardson and the
Royal Shakespeare Company. i
On November 14, The Trial from
Franz Kafka’s novel will be shown.
It is an extravagantly expressionis-
tic film made by Orson Welles.
Joseph K has been charged with an
unspecified crime, and his feelings |
