Hi Jeff--
I'm getting ready to move, and found another NS video tape, which helped
nail down some things about three shows. Here's what I've got,
chronologically. CJ
September 6, 1991
(I'm guessing this goes here. It's on video, and I think it was the first
show of the semester that we did the John Smick Song, and AGW 3 has to
precede AGW 4, which is performed on Sept. 13, 1991.)
1) Todd Ristau (Christ piece, part one, in which Christ makes mud animals
and miraculously builds a chair in his father's shop. Finishes by
indicating this is the end of Part 1)
2) Scott Smith--"The John Smick Song"
3) Peter Ullian (no title, but the piece begins with Peter bending over,
holding his forehead, making pained noises.)
4) Drugstore
5) Laura Quinn and CSJ--"Aggressive Women's Theater #3"
6) Mike
7) Dwarf Spanking
8) Whisner
9) Neveu
December 13, 1991--BONS
1) Brett Neveu--"Egga and Ferd's Scavenger Hunt #1" (Actually Part 1, and
Part 3, which was a Christmasy conclusion, as per the video tape.
Performed by Eric Johnson, Doug Stekel, Rebecca Gilman, JC Luxton, and
Brett Neveu. Reference made to Part 2, in which J.C. Luxton played the
General. Also reference to there being a big gap betwen Part 2 and Part
3.)
2) Tadao N. Tomomatsu--"The Foreigner" (impressions)
3) CSJ and John C Luxton--"Brother-Sister-Brother Poetry Squad" (Perfomed
by CSJ, John C Luxton, Scott Smith, and James Luxton)
4) Doug Stekel and Eric Johnson--"Practical Exercises in Theater as
performd by D. Stekel and E. Johnson" (aka "Sanford Meisner and Son")
5 White Boy/Black Boy Theater
6) Rebecca Gilman (Sparky the Monkey and Frog Girl)
7) Neil Cleary, "Ghosttown" (guitar, vocals, and violin) Another note
says that they played a song called "Ballad of the Dogs" but they
introduct it on the video as "Ghosttown".
8) Scott Hixson--"Sensitive Men's Theater" (performed by Hixson and Mark
D. Johnson)
9) Carolyn Space Jacobson and Laura Quinn--"Aggressive Women's Theatre V:
Aggressive Women in 3-D" (Midsummer's Agressive Women's Dream piece)
10) Drayer, David
11) Amy Hahn--"Amy Hahn's Poetry Corner" (which may have involved some
limericks, or may even have been called "Limericks," although "AHPC" is
the title Doug used in the order on the video tape.)
12) Jenn Shepard and Margie Dube (Bloodsuckers piece)
13) Clint Corley--"Paper Scrap Theater" (parking ticket)
14) John Smick--"Where No One Has Returned From" (Red Shirt Star Trek
Piece, large cast)
15) Sean Judge (Star Trek Scene)
16) Todd Ristau (This piece wasn't videotapes, but there is a shot of
Luxton removing a podium from the stage. This might be Todd's "No Shame
Manifesto")
17) Clint Corley (4 Tall Men)
18) Peter Ullian (piece beginning "I go to my mailbox . . ."
19) Margie Dube--"Inexpensive Parody"
