Epicenter Theatre presents a study of contrasts

Theater is magic. Theater is illusion. Theater, if I appropriate the Bard's imagery, is "such stuff as dreams are made on." Where dreaming is strongest is in the "black box" theaters that abound in Metro Detroit. Some artists paint pictures on white canvas. Some artists "paint" pictures on black walls or curtains. It is intrinsically unreal, but give an audience a suggestion of time and space and we'll readily suspend disbelief. And when we do, how satisfying are the dreams!

It is to be regretted that the Epicenter Theatre Group hasn't used Oakland University's black box, the Varner Hall Lab Theatre, to its full potential. Its latest offering, two one-act plays, is overproduced; so much so that it dampens the audience's enthusiasm.

First on the bill is "The Man Who Lost His Sundays," a world premiere written and directed by company member Marius Illiescu. In following the maxim "write what you know," Illiescu brings us a part of his family's history, as told to him by the people involved. While the program refers to "a large city in an oppressive regime," it's no feat to infer this is Bucharest, Romania, during a two-decade block of the Soviet hegemony. Our characters are Michael, a royalist arrested on the day of King Michael's abdication in December 1947. The new Communist government sends him to a labor camp for a total of 16 years for his "misplaced" loyalty. Left behind are his faithful wife, Victoria, and their 11-year-old son, Nicholas. Deprived of his father's presence at so early an age, Nicholas grows estranged from him. "The Man Who Lost His Sundays" is a compelling example of the triumph of character in the face of oppression.

Full Descriptions & Feature for Native American Clothing: An Illustrated History

More than five centuries of native peoples’ artistry.

Native Americans crafted beautiful clothing out of skins, pigment, quills and sinew. The collection of photographs in this outstanding reference celebrates this decorative genius. Many of the 300 photographs from more than 60 leading museums and private collections have never been published previously.

The book describes the clothing in fascinating detail, from moccasins and tunics to sashes, bags and ceremonial and burial costumes. Theodore Brasser explains who made what and how, as well as the meanings of the different kinds of decoration, such as beadwork, embroidery, appliqué, patchwork, weaving and dyeing. There are also many examples of native pottery and other historic artifacts that depict themes used in the clothes....
