The plot follows Jack Worthing, a serious man who lets loose under the alter ego of his fictional younger brother, Earnest. His charade becomes complicated when his philandering friend Algernon Moncrieff arrives at Jack’s country home pretending to be Earnest. When Jack's fiancée Gwendolen and his young ward Cecily join the gathering, his lies are exposed and his true identity turns out to be a sur- prise even to himself. Performances will be held April 1, 2 and 3 at 8 p.m. in Walsh Auditorium. Tickets are available at the door, $3 for stu- dents and senior citizens and $5 for adults. The cast includes several faces familiar to the College Misericordia stage. Sophomore John Hall plays Jack Worthing, whose friend Algernon is por- trayed by junior Luis Martinez.

Local producer’s Oscar-winning film at Cinemark The Fog of War, a film produced by Dallas resi- dent Robert May of SenArt Films and winner of the Oscar for documentary feature, is now play- ing at the Cinemark Theater in Moosic. “Although audiences have a wide range of films from which to choose each week, there is none more important than The Fog of War. It’s a film that you will be talking about for days and think- ing about for years” said May. The story follows Robert S. McNamara’s life through many crucial events, including the crip- pling Depression of the 1930s, the industrializa- tion of the war years, his years as Secretary of De- fense under Presidents Kennedy and Johnson, and the development of a different kind of war- fare based on air power and the creation of a new American meritocracy. The Fog of War is the first historical investiga- tion to make extensive use of taped telephone conversations from the Oval Office of the White House between President Lyndon B. Johnson and McNamara. Much of what has been written about McNamara rehashes a familiar story — that of a computer-like man, a hawk. However, the presi- dential recordings do not bear this out. Instead, a PHOTO COURTESY OF JEFF VESPA/WIREIMAGE Robert May on the red carpet at this year’s Academy Awards with fellow executive pro- SA EMR EINER (OIL SN 4238 ~ Your Car has More than 2,000 Working Parts. we COvVer Every One of Them.
