TIME TO ‘PIG OUT’
BY LIZ PREMOATLANTIC NEWS STAFF WRITER
HAMPTON | There’ssomething new coming tothe Lane Memorial Library,thanks to a group of Hamp-ton students in grades 5-9who like to put words intoactions.
It’s Readers’ Theatre(RT), an informal programthat is part read-aloudstory time and part per-forming arts — and onewhich promises to be whol-ly entertaining.
So how did this all comeabout?
“I sort of threw it outthere and there was someinterest,” says Teen Ser-vices Librarian, CherylFrench, who facilitates thelibrary’s Youth AdvisoryBoard and the youngadults who comprise it.
French had initially con-ducted a survey with mem-bers of the advisory board,and based on the resultsdecided “to give it a try aspart of our teen summer
programming.” French is“keeping the group infor-mal and flexible, in thehopes that we will be ableto work around the partici-pants’ busy school sched-ules and extracurricularactivities.”
The premiere Readers’Theatre performance isscheduled for Tuesday,August 8 at 4 p.m. at thelibrary. While the programis open to all ages, it isespecially geared towardstudents entering Kinder-garten and on throughfourth grade.
The setting is simple:Working with “scripts,” thereaders (with their previ-ously-assigned parts) willuse expression, tone ofvoice and, at times, propsto tell the selected stories.French figures the read-aloud tales will run about10-20 minutes each.
For the first RT at theLane Library, there will betwo featured scripts adapt-ed for readers’ theatre by
Curtain opens on Lane Library’sReaders’ Theatre
author and story “reteller”Aaron Shepard: “The Leg-end of Slappy Hooper” (anAmerican tall tale) and“Three Sideways Storiesfrom Wayside School”(from Louis Sachar’s origi-nal series of novellas).
This is definitely a pro-gram with a purpose.
“From the audience’sperspective, Readers’ The-atre is like listening to afull-cast audio story, or sit-ting in on an old-fashionedradio story,” explainsFrench. “The audience cansee the readers, but theirimagination still has to fillin all of the blanks. Noscenery, no memorizedlines, minimal props — thefocus is on the words of thestory and how theysound.”
That’s not the only cre-ative benefit to this type ofpresentation. It works bothways.
“From the reader’s per-spective,” says French, “RTis a chance to play withexpression, bring a story tolife with one’s voice. It alsodevelops oral reading andpublic speaking skills.”
The RT troupe currentlyhas seven participants,ranging in age from 10-14.According to French, “Thenumber of readers is likelyto fluctuate from presenta-tion to presentation,
depending upon schedules,but I hope to maintain acore group of at least five.”
French says participantsof all ages on both sides ofthe script can benefit fromthe program, be theybeginning readers on up tocollege-age students.
“And for the theatregeek within,” says French,“it is a great opportunity toact without worrying aboutblocking, costume changes,tripping over scenery, ormemorizing one’s lines.”
That doesn’t meanthere’s no preparationinvolved, although “timerequirements are minimal,”says French, “just one ortwo meetings per perfor-mance to select scripts,assign roles, and rehearsereading.”
As the troupe develops(newcomers are welcome),the program may beexpanded to include origi-nal scripts and adaptationsof folk tales, says French, aswell as short puppet showsand more traditional storyread-alouds, in addition toexisting readers theatrescripts.
Check out Readers’ The-atre at the Lane MemorialLibrary beginning on Tues-day, August 8 at 4 p.m. Formore information, callCheryl French at (603) 926-4729.

SPECIAL TO THE ATLANTIC NEWSROCHESTER | What do you do when
your kids have finally gone off to school, yourwife’s career is at last taking off, and not onlydoes no one appreciate you but you’re alsostuck in the same job that you’ve alwayshated — but enabled everyone else to doexactly what they wanted to do?
The answer is simple: You get a dog. Or, inGreg’s case,the dog getsyou. It allhappens in“Sylvia,” am o d e r nr o m a n t i cc o m e d ywritten byaward-win-ning play-wright A.R. Gurney and playing at theRochester Opera House now through August12.
“Sylvia” explores the dynamics of rela-tionship on many levels — even how a dogmust feel about his/ her owners. The storyinvolves a couple, Greg and Kate, who havemoved to Manhattan after 22 years of child-raising in the suburbs. Greg’s career as afinancial trader is winding down, whileKate’s career, as a public-school Englishteacher, is beginning to offer her more oppor-tunities.
Greg brings home a dog he found (orrather, that has found him) bearing only thename “Sylvia” on her name tag. A street-smart mixture of Lab and Poodle, Sylviabecomes a major bone of contention betweenhusband and wife. She offers Greg an escapefrom the frustrations of his job and theunknowns of middle age, and looks adoring-ly up at him as her rescuer, her savior, herinspiration, her soul mate.
To Kate, Sylvia becomes a rival for affec-tion. Greg’s devotion to Sylvia grows andgrows, until not only his job is threatened butalso his marriage, as Sylvia subtly takes on
‘Sylvia’ ahysterical romp
