Which would you choose? In the Denver Center Theatre Company's production of Shaw's "Arms and the Man," playing at Uintah High School auditorium on May 4 at 8 p.m., you'll watch the beautiful Raina make that very choice. "Arms and the Man" has been described as a "cavalry charge of wit and romance." The first publicly produced pro-duced play by the great comic writer George Bernard Shaw, it pokes light romantic fun at 19th-century notions of love and heroism. A "chocolate cream soldier" invades the bedroom of a beautiful Balkan woman, who shelters him from his pursuers and then is forced forc-ed to choose between his gruff charms and the blustery heroics of a dashing officer. The Denver Center Theatre production is filled with moonlit romance and vivid Balkan colors. This is George Bernard Shaw at his inimitable in-imitable best. Raina is portrayed by Yolanda Lloyd, who received rave reviews for her portrayal of Juliet in this season's "Romeo and Juliet" and in "The Night of the Iguana." Bluntschli, the "chocolate cream soldier," is played by Gregory Mortensen, who has appeared ap-peared this season in "The Importance of Being Earnest," and "The Front Page," at the Denver Center Theatre Company. Sergius, the dashing military hero, is played by Jamie Mor Hints the ankle crae, too, with colorful anklets that have nonskid bottoms, The biggest smash in ideepweaf is the idiirt, All kinds of nhirts are available: dorm shirts, placket jdiirts, fancy shirts and man tailored shirts., but that dif? not mean feminine styles are out On the contrary, baby dolls, rompers and nightgowns are still popular, as well as delicate prints, especially those with hearts and flowers Merpwcar decoratH with rart"n characters like 5nnpy, and T.V. prrsonaJilis hke Mr. Smith, the orangutan, are alw fashionable A girl rould nt dream for more variety.
