their professors down and inform them.

REVIEW

because of its many savory roles and
potential Interpret*Uona.
The ornate Victorian set and lavish
.costumes provided a beautiful palette
far the enduring madness, but even
combined they could not provide the
missing wit and magic that makes
Mollerc so memorable.
The story Is a difficult one: The mis¬
erly father and eager son are both in
love with the same ingenuous woman in •
town. The daughter is In love with a
household servant and neither she, her
father or brother can marry anyone
until financial matters are settled and
"equal matches are made.
The problems with this production
were mechanical the pace was far too
slow, the chase scenes lasted far too
long and seemed hopelessly contrived,
and there was a particularly awkward
sequence of running through the audi¬
ence accusing various individuals of
stealing Harpagon's gold.
Not all the performances lived up to
their potential, but two were especially
noteworthy. David Rasner as Master
Jacques and Skip Longfellow as La
Heche both had panache that made
their scenes fun to watch. Rasner, as
the 'tresjrancats' cook/coachman had
a real flair for melodrama. His thick
French accent and exaggerated expres¬
sions made for Just the right combkna-
tlon between a two-dimensional carica¬
ture and a madcap, lovable character.
Longfellow was especially entertain¬
ing. Whether hewas being shoved to the
ground or hiding under a bearskin rug,
his natural comic timing made for
amusing moments.
Perhaps director Kim Mortn felt that
a campy, surface production would do
the play Justice, but It Just fell too short
too often to be successful, even on that
level
The play Is pretty to look at, but this
sophornoric production ssttls short of
the foremost playwrights of the 17th
century.
