A rkin says Sholw Biz is Secure
By Gail Campbell
Alan Arkin was warmly received Tues-day
by a larger than expected crowd
considering our team was in Kansas
City then.
After a brief but complementary in-troduction
Arkin proceeded to correct
his introduction; he was nominated for
two academy awards, not one! Forgoing
normal lecture procedure Arkin decided
to run his speech on an informal ques-tion
and answer session.
When asked how he builds a charac-ter
and how he felt about doing so,
Arkin replied he is terrified at the pro-spect
of a new character, but he tries
to learn all he can about a character
and literally 'live' as the character
would have.
What advice did he give his son to go
into show biz? Arkin thought a while
and finally stated that he didn't give
any because he didn't know what to
say. He encouraged him but he doesn't
believe in pushing. He did say, how-ever,
that he thought show business
was secure despite what has been said.
When questioned as to what School of
Drama he preferred, Arkin replied that
Uta Hagen's school was the best. His
wife went there and so did his oldest
son. One problem for the budding young
actor is that Uta Hagen herself only
teaches professionals.
One of the more challenging questions
was forcing a comparison of theater to
films . .. Arkin answered "Films are
more challenging." Films are irrevoca-ble,
once they are done there is no
chance to go back and improve on it.
He stated that because of this he is
"a movie junkie."
In many ways though he prefers the
theater. There is more joy in it for
him and very little of the tension that
accompanies a 'one-time' performance.
Arkin continued, "In making a movie
it's like making a chair." You hope that,
if it is -a chair, people can sit in it.
In a movie you hope that they can sit
through it.
Alan Arkin's informal, personal style kept his audience interested Tuesday.
Fine Arts Schedule
'Mass' is at Consistory
Bach's "Mass in B Minor" will be per-formed
by our School of Music this Sun-day
in the Scottish Rite Temple. Be-cause
of the length of this major sacred
work, the performance will be in two
parts-at 4 and 8 p.m.
The oratorio will be presented by six
soloists plus the Collegiate Choir, the
Festival Choir and the Chamber Singers.
An orchestra made up of members of
the Bloomington-Normal Symphony and
Wesleyan students will accompany these
groups.
Kathleen Battle will be the special
guest soloist. She sang at IWU's perfor-mance
of Haydn's Nelson Mass last year
and was a regional finalist in the Metro-politan
Opera Auditions in 1973-74.
Other soloists will be Susan Arnold
Madsen, a recent Wesleyan honor gra-duate,
second soprano; Jane Askins,
IWU junior, mezzo-soprano; William
Reeder, ISU, tenor; Robert Donaldson,
IWU faculty, baritone; and Eric Halver-son,
U of I graduate student, bass.
Tickets costing $1 and covering both
parts of the performance are on sale
in the School of Music Office in Presser
Hall. Tickets are also available for a
communion dinner to be held between
these parts.
The Collegiate Choir (here pictured in 1973) is one of the groups presenting Sun-day's
B Minor Mass.
