Photo Theatre Energy play Saturday The National Exhibition Centre will present Project Immigration, a play by Theatre Energy, on Saturday at 7:30 p.m. Project Immigration is a highly acclaimed play developed by Edmonton's Catalyst Theatre that has been strongly recommended by students, teachers, school admin istrators, social workers, and government policy-makers for its strong educational impact. The play confronts the issues involved in making decisions about a variety of ethnic groups seeking citizen ship in Canada. The audience, who play immigration officers, confront their own attitudes toward these ethnic groups and explore their sense of what Canada represents as a nation. Skilled actors guide the audience through a real-life drama. The audience first becomes familiar with the theatre form and their roles from an actor who prepares them by establishing setting, defining the situation, and giving them a functional part to play The audience is then taken to the immigration office (the performance area), where they interview and evaluate five potential immigrants (played by actors) , ¥ a2 % oe | ; P [a Pern on Sin id fa LONDON graduate stood before the entertainment Well, what did he do? persona. crisis and tells the tale in therapist, Robin Skynner. five fellow Pythons. work scripts.” humorous training films. wrong. exhausted. said. its absent-minded vicars, Fawlty travel well, America. the front row.

Then, crushed with humiliation, he fled. Cleese eventually joined the troupe, and that led to radio and television, Monty Python's Flying Circus and the unforgettable Basil Fawlty. He makes people laugh all right — millions of them, from North America to Japan, from the Middle East to the South Pacific. And despite the 6-foot-5 frame and apoplectic glare. he's still a trifle shy.

Then he was invited by British TV personality David Frost to join his humor program and it brought him together with Terry Jones, Terry Gilliam, Graham Chap- man, Eric Idle and Michael Pallin in what became Monty Python's Flying Circus, a nonsense name chosen after Owl Stretching Time was rejected After the TV sketches came films The Holy Grail, which parodied the Arthurian legend; The Life of Brian, a spoof of Hoolywood movies about Christ; and last year's The Meaning of Life, whose grotesqueries climaxed with an obese man eating until he exploded PYTHON t desk of a college ‘a book co-authored by his His Python days are over, despite persistent rumors of an imminent reunion. “There is no way that I am inter ested,” he says, adding that he is tired of “committee UNLIKELY SETTING The unlikely setting for Cleese’s talents is at training seminars for sales people.

Though it was one of England's most popular series and has been exported worldwide, Fawlty Towers ran for only 14 episodes. It was so intense and energetic that Cleese and co-writer Connie Booth, his ex-wife, were “Fawlty was a sort of exemplar, a paradigm of the whole British service industry — this idea that if it wasn't for the customers we could run this place properly,” he English life is fertile ground for Python humor with pompous retired colonels, judges in wigs, snooty royals, cane-wielding school masters and dour trade unionists.

Berton questions. the accepted version of the resignation of Sifton, the wealthy westerner with expensive eastern tastes, and i — for the first time, Berton — a wealth of material on the major scandals within Sthon's department. The pretext for Sifton’s 1905 resignation was his mt with Prime Minister Sir Wilfrid Laurier over majority rights in education in the new western provinces — a quarrel that was really a tempest in a teapot. But Berton says there were deeper problems in Sifton's political and personal life, including newspaper gossip that he was involved with a married woman. “There was a personal scandal, no doubt about that,” says Berton, but in addition the workaholic Sifton by 1905 was in a nervous state and all but deaf PALS PROFITED Certainly there was incredible graft and Sifton’s political pals and relatives profited immensely from it. But, as Berton writes, the Conservatives during their term of office were not better. Those who enriched themselves because of Sifton’s power ineluded his brother-in-law, he says. Was Sifton alone immune? “In the Duke of Wellington's memorable phrase, anybody who would believe anything,” Berton writes. Another western idol who comes under scrutiny is John Dafoe, editor of Sifton's Winnipeg Free Press whose name had a godlike ring to generations of young journalists. Movie music a dying art LOS ANGELES (AP) — Though Carradine’s song, “Musie for the movies isn't sional songwriters lament the decline of original scores for films and complain that the symphonic backgrounds of Max Steiner and Franz Waxman have been replaced by vintage rock records. Another trend they de plore is the use of electronic music, such as Vangelis's one-man score for Chariots of Fire. And with virtually no musicals being filmed, work in Hollywood has been scarce for most of the men and women who have made America’s movie music “Twenty years ago, every studio had staff orchestr: said Jimmy Clark, local bus- iness representative of the American Federation of Mu- sicians. “That is all gone, and now all musicians are free lance. Once a player gets inside, it's OK. But you've got to know somebody who knows somebody who knows something the pros deplore. “Did you notice how they skipped over the songs of the 1970s, throwing in a bunch of scores like Chariots of Fire?” said songwriter Jay Living ston. “Most of the songs aren't worth hearing.” Livingston and ~ partner Ray Evans were Paramount Picture’s resident song smiths during the "40s and "60s, producing an incredible amount of title songs and musical scores. Their Oscar winners include Buttons and Bows, Mona Lisa and Que Sera, Sera. And among their other movie songs where To Each His Own, Golden Ear rings and Silver Bells. “Ray and I haven't worked in a studio for years,” Liv- ingston said. “We write spec. ial material for nightclub acts and play concerts ourselves.” TRACES HISTORY Harry Lowjeski, executive director of music for MGM. UA, traced the history of film scoring: “In the forest days of underscoring, published mood music was used. Then Erich Korngold, a schooled composer, became the first to write music for the film, treating the script like the libretto of an opera. In the period that followed, it was fashionable to fill the motion picture with wall-to-wall mu- sic. y Many of today’s films are scored with old tapes, Clark added. Others are “runaway” scores recorded in England, Germany and other foreign countries. The union has tried to stop the runaways without much success. At a recent celebration by the Academy of Motion Pic- ture Arts and Sciences of 50 years of Oscar-winning mu sie, Clark and others in the music end of movie-making long advocacy ‘ Fae Pet: 2 e; Pad ulk ripts found ~~ JACKSON, MISS.
