attempted.

Soveral actors were invited in from other B.C. troupes

+ to fill the 21 on-stage roles. The production is directed by

Nick Hi:ichinson and musical director Reid Campbell.

Theatre Energy has taken the liberty of slightly

updating this’ comic operatic melodrama and proven
. successful, :

Still set in post-war London, some lines have

nonetheless been regionalized for effect — though one

doubts whether the original work actually contained

lyrical references to Kelowna wine and Winlaw, B.C.

‘Threepenny Opera is the story of Mac the Knife as he

* meets his demise through backfiring escapades of amour

and teetering loyalties. :

To complicate further his life of crime and getaway,
Mac finds himself married to the daughter of the King of
Beggars, in love with the daughter of the chief
superintendent of Scotland Yard, and hopelessly attached

j to Ginny Jenny and her prostitutes. a
Now, underline this with Brecht's acerbic satire of
| gociety’s treatment of the poor and crippled — douse it
. with hilarious lyries backed by the everpresent melo-
_- drama piano, set it against a backdrop map of London add
purposefully scruffy and rufian costumes and props —
and you have Theatre Energy's The Threepenny Opera.

sity Center in Nelson Mon-
day.

The evening begins at:7
pm. at Maryhall. on the
DTUC campus’ and is free
and open ‘to the public.

East Kootenay mountain
poet Peter Christensen will
kick-off the reading. with a
46-minute Canada Council
reading.

Christensen is a young
poet.who grew up on a farm
west of Red Deer. and who
now lives in the Kootenay..
He has recently published-a
, book of poems titled Big

Talk. The poems explore the

-. bonds between man, machine

and environment.
:Christensen's reading will
‘be followed by a short inter-
mission and the reading from
23 West Kootenay poets.
The West Kootenay sec-
tion’ of the reading was or-
“ganized by Fred Wah, a West.
Kootenay poet and coordin-

cipating. are:. Wah, Blake

“I wanted. to
show the large number: of

shave,” Wah said. i

> Wah said he could have
chosen many, many more
poets but the list had to be
limited because of time and
space.” Most’ of the poets
included in the anthology
have had work published,
some were recently students

‘The anthology is made up
entirely of poetry. Wah soli-
cited manuscripts from the
poets and the poems he chose
from each poet are personal
choices,

“In a sense it’s Fred Wah's
map of the West Kootenay
poets because Fred Wah has
lived here in the West Koot-
enays for most of his life and
been involved with all of the
poets in some way or an-
other,” said Wab.
