‘Scapino’ has a trick up his sleeve Denee’ Shelton Associate Photo Editor

Brad Heineke The Clackamas Print

When was the last time you had a really good laugh? A laugh that makes no noise and you’re just sitting there, shaking and clapping like a seal. These are the kind of laughs that “The Schemes of Scapino” inspires. Within minutes the characters had the audience in stitches.

“The Schemes of Scapino” takes place in contemporary Naples, Italy, and is about a trickster servant, Scapino, who is concocting an intricate plot to aid two pairs of lovers against parental opposition.

Right away, the cast members broke the fourth wall and involved the audience. They asked questions of the audience and played off of their answers. At one point the audience was asked to stomp their feet in order to emulate the sound of soldiers. This was a smart move, not only was it more real sounding than a computer generated sound effect, but it engaged the audience. There was also a particularly humorous joke and one of the cast members came to the edge of the stage and explained it to the audience.

They had laughed the first time, but laughed even harder when he came over and explained it.

The costumes were absolutely stunning. The use of patterns and fabric was a little discombobulated at first, but as the character

The use of props was also brilliant, little things that not many people would notice. Scapino had a rabbit’s foot inside of his

Joshua Dillen Co-Editor-in-Chief Three lifelong gun owners have come together because of the horrific tragedy at Clackamas Town Center last December. Their mission is gun control. They aim to unite gun owners in Oregon and across the country to fight for the common goal of safety for our citizens.

Robert Yuille, husband of shooting victim Cindy Yuille, is one of those gun owners. The loss of his wife last December has changed his purpose in life.

“Cindy and I always believed that things in life happen for a reason. We’re not supposed to know what it is; we’re just supposed to follow that path however it leads us,” Yuille said. “When she was murdered I really did not think about becoming involved in any kind of activism, whatsoever, but it just has pretty much presented itself to me.”

Paul Kemp lost his brotherin-law, Steve Forsyth, in the shooting. Together with Yuille

and under the leadership of Rick George, they spoke of their ignited activism and of their deep wish for new action concerning gun safety to Marion County Democrats at their headquarters in Salem last Thursday.

George, owner of Grande Ronde Consulting in McMinnville, wants to grow their mission to find a solution to the burgeoning gun violence across our nation. All three have a passion for gun ownership and believe responsible gun owners can exercise their rights and still protect the Second Amendment.

They also believe that “gun control” is not a bad term.

“I have seen enough in the last couple of years to move me to action. I have never been involved in gun politics in my life and never wanted to – avoided it,” George said.

He has obviously had a change of heart. The activists are forming a not for profit organization tentatively named “Oregon Gun Owners for Safety.”

Brosseau. “Things weren’t really working out for me. I couldn’t really bring my hips around. Last second, I looked over at my coach, he said, ‘Just crank your hips around,’ so that’s what I did.”

It was the second time in two days that Brosseau had denied Ebukam a state title. Brosseau also beat Ebukam by 1 1/2 inches in the shot put finals on Friday.

“I am very satisfied,” said Brosseau. “I am very grateful for the things that I’ve been able to do and the coaches I’ve had. We have some good coaches here, especially with Scott Skipper as the throws coach.”

The University of Washington bound Brosseau added the javelin title to his shot put victory and third place finish in the discus on Friday

to become the 6A boys high point scorer in the meet with 26 points.

Brosseau led Oregon City to a fourth place finish in the 6A team race with 46.5 points. Jesuit won the team title convincingly with 72 points, followed by Sheldon (54) and David Douglas (52).

Jesuit junior Max Dordevic, who placed second in both hurdles races, was satisfied to finally get a victory in the meet’s final event.

Dordevic ran anchor leg on the Crusaders victorious 4x400 relay team.

“Definitely a great way to close out the meet,” said Dordevic. “I’m grateful for the opportunity to go out with a win in the 4x400. I really love my team.”

From left to right, Rick George, Robert Yuille and Paul Kemp get ready to speak to Marion County Democrats at the party’s May meeting last Thursday evening. Yuille and Kemp both lost loved ones in the Clackamas Town Center Mall shooting. The three men are lifelong gun owners who advocate for gun control.

convincing the leadership of the National Rifle Association to be more in line with its membership to garner support from that gun owning base. Kemp believes a majority of NRA members would support stricter laws mandating gun safes and trigger locks. The ultimate goal is to see legislation passed that will keep guns out of the hands of people like Jacob Tyler Roberts, the shooter in the Clackamas Mall tragedy, who used a stolen gun.

families and victims of several shootings across the country including the victims and families of the Gabby Giffords and Columbine shootings. The past several months have had him busy experiencing the dynamic of a country’s heated dialogue.

Kemp, who spoke for about 10 minutes, outlined some ideas the group would like to present that would be palatable to government lawmakers. They included

a&c

Kemp, a registered Republican, wants to create a dialogue with government leaders and voters and come to an agreement that will keep people safe and hold gun owners accountable for who their guns kill. The ultimate goal is to see legislation that preserves gun owner’s rights and keeps the public protected from guns in the wrong hands.

“My feeling is this is not a partisan issue and I read a lot about history and leadership. Some of the greatest things that have ever been done in this country are when folks cross the aisle and work together,” Kemp said. “The overwhelming majority of Americans want to see some changes done.”

George, who is from northeastern Oregon and currently resides near McMinnville, has been the Vice President of Policy and Indigenous Affairs for Ecotrust, Executive Director for Oregon Rivers Council and a 21-year program manager for the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation. The lifelong gun owner has decided to make an impact and do something to keep families safe from killers with guns.

George hopes the trio can harness the power and passion of gun owners.

“I do believe in my heart that it will take gun owners to stand up and say ‘enough is enough.’

It’s time for change and it’s time

for respect for our rights and time for respect for the rights of people that should be able to walk through malls safely,” George said. “And it’s time for children to be able to go to school with as much safety in their school environment as we can give them. And that means change.”

Clackamas teachers respond to ‘Rate My Professors’

Brittany Horne News Editor Checking social network sites such as Rate My Professors during the registration process could be considered common practice. Ratings for the professors vary from harsh to praising, helpful to confusing and constructive to damaging. But does anyone wonder how the professors feel about it or if their RMP ratings and comments matter to them? More importantly, do instructors think that it is an effective tool for the students?

No one knows what instructors are talking about more than administrative assistants, such as Amy Burghardt from social science and foreign language.

She explained that at certain times over the years it has been a big discussion topic among instructors.

“It hasn’t come up for a couple years, I have to say,” said Burghardt. “It kind of does the wave thing back and forth.”

For those who don’t know what RMP is, it is a site that allows you to rate a college or its professors from one to five in different categories. Professors are rated in the categories of overall quality, helpfulness, clarity, easiness and even hotness. There are also options to select a professor’s specific course and to leave comments; however, all ratings and comments are anonymous.

There are hundreds of CCC professor ratings, with an average professor rating of 3.94.

Clackamas Community College itself has 41 ratings with an overall quality rating of 3.6.

Other CCC ratings include: • • • • • • • • • •

Reputation: 3.5 Location: 3.9 Opportunity: 3.5 Library: 3.5 Campus: 3.8 Internet Speed: 4.2 Food: 3.1 Clubs & Events: 3.2 Social Activities: 3.1 Happiness: 4.4

“This is a very good school to go to if you’re trying to stay focused on getting your degree.

If you’re looking to party, go to a state college,” [SP] said a comment by one of the anony-

mous students who chose to rate the college. This person rated clubs and events as well as internet speed as a five, the campus as a four and the rest were threes.

But what do instructors, who are the main topic of RMP, think about the things students say about them? Classes that students feel strongly about one way or the other, such as writing or math, possibly lend themselves to more criticism.

Despite the harsh nature of some comments, part-time English instructor Paul Crumrine shared a few laughs while talking about RMP.

“

It is kinda funny if you read it. One will say I’m the best teacher ever and the next [student] will say I’m the most horrible teacher ever.”

Paul Crumrine Part-time English Instructor

“It is kinda funny if you read it. One will say I’m the best teacher ever, and the next [student] from the same class says I’m the most horrible teacher ever,” said Crumrine. “I don’t think it’s good for finding a professor that’s good for an individual student. It might identify a professor that more students like or dislike.”

Crumrine went on to explain why he thinks the site isn’t good for finding a good professor “match” for individual students.

“It has like, no validity because most of the time there’s no detail,” he said. “If someone likes you or doesn’t like you — or gives you a good review or a bad review — it doesn’t matter because they don’t back it up.

They don’t give you a reason why the teacher is good or bad.”

Another issue with the site is absurd comments from students, although it might be that

no one but the instructor knows.

Math instructor Stefan Baratto explains one example of this.

“The last time I looked at the site was maybe eight or 10 years ago. There was a comment there that I used too much cologne,” stated Baratto. “I think it’s been 20 or 30 years since I used cologne and never much liked the stuff. I thought it an odd comment and haven’t been back to the site.”

He went on, telling the story of two math instructors, Carrie and Carie. Students would rate one professor under the other’s name and vice versa. This shows another problem with the information that RMP offers to students.

“I don’t have any problems with [RMP], but wouldn’t send students in that direction,” stated Baratto.

Another obstacle students might face when trying to find the professor that’s right for them using RMP is that instructors change. They find teaching methods that work better for them and their students. Social Science department chair Jackie Flowers knows all about this.

“I’ve changed the way I teach my U.S. History classes several times over the last six or seven years. And I’ve changed the whole approach, the type of assessments I do. I’ve changed a lot of things,” said Flowers. “I think that if someone read whatever they might have had about me six years ago, it’s gonna be a totally different class now than it was then.”

Could there be a better way for teachers to get feedback from their students and for students to find out whose Writing 121 class they should take, for example?

“I’m much more concerned with what the official evaluations say, rather than something informal,” said Flowers. “Isn’t there a pretty effective informal grapevine? Don’t [students] hear who’s good to take and who’s not good to take?”

Outside of the informal grapevine, Baratto has another idea to help match students to instructors.

“I think that a much better solution would be for ASG to compile something based on student input that was CCC specific,” he stated. “Given the two year nature of our institution, I don’t know if it is work-

Regardless of a better solution, Flowers discusses why some students will decide to leave such harsh comments on the RMP site.

“Sometimes there’s just personality issues that get in the way. If you don’t like your teacher’s personality, when they’re in front of you four or six hours a week, that could affect how you feel about their teaching,” said Flowers.

“Either that or they’re really

upset about a teacher, in which case they’re gonna go and post whatever it is they really didn’t like.”

Finding the silver lining in the falls Brad Heineke The Clackamas Print

I

Double Falls is one of the 10 waterfalls in Silver Creek Falls Park, the largest state park in Oregon.

This is one of 10 sights along the scenic seven-mile trail just outside of Silverton.

A few hundred yards beyond South Falls is a junction at a scenic footbridge. Don’t cross the bridge unless you are ready to return or for the photo opportunity. Instead take the unpaved path along the creek. This path will come to a series of switchback wooden stair steps leading down and to the trail behind Lower South Falls’ broad 93 foot cascade.

Beyond Lower South Falls the trail forks again. There is good signage and the trail map was handy to see the distance to the next falls. At this point you can turn right and climb the steeper ridge trail to the canyon rim and parking lot, for a shorter hike of 2.8 miles.

I continued straight and headed up the north fork of Silver Creek to Lower North Falls. At a footbridge just above the falls, I took the 250-yard side trail to visit and photograph Double Falls. Back on the main trail you will hike another mile passing Drake and Middle North Falls to the Winter Falls trail junction.

Each falls has its own unique beauty; they were all stunning.

At this point, you can turn right for a 5.1-mile loop or continue on to see three more falls: Twin, Lower North and North Falls. Here there is the North parking area and restroom. I then headed down the two-mile return Ridge Trail through huge old growth fir and hemlock trees and patches of trillium flowers back to the South Falls area, the lodge and car.

This was an amazing hike and a photographer’s dream. I consider it an easy hike; it is often rated as moderate. The trail is well maintained and smooth. It is fairly level most of the way; the 700 feet elevation change through the hike largely includes stair steps.

The lure of the next falls and the enjoyable rest while viewing them make the hike seem shorter. There are even some rest benches at a few points. I noticed that dogs are not allowed on the falls trails.

This is of course an easy day trip; however, tent camping and small cabins are available to rent.

There is also a convention area with actual houses for accommodations and a convention lodge that has three meals a day available for purchase by anyone. On the return trip we stopped in Silverton which is a cool little town 15 mile outside the park.

We found a great restaurant and bar that had creek side balcony seating.

I highly suggest this as a “must do” hike. It is a close to home, wilderness nirvana with spectacular views. Visit www. oregonstateparks.org for details and pricing.

had to go visit the largest state park in Oregon, Silver Falls, which is just one hour away from Clackamas Community College’s main campus in Oregon City. It is a straight shot south down Highway 213 which turns to Highway 214 as it approaches the park. Signs led to South Falls Picnic Area C parking lot. There is a $5 parking fee. I followed a broad path downstream a few hundred yards to historic Silver Falls Lodge. It is a rustic log cabin style building. It had a large stone fireplace with a crackling fire blazing. A host said the fire is always burning through the day and pointed out a native plant and wildlife exhibit that was set up through the café area.

There is a small food concession available. I found they had free detailed color trail maps with photos.

The park is more than 9,000 acres with 24 miles of walking paths, 14 miles of horse trails and four miles of bike trails. Its main allure is the Trail of Ten Falls, which is a designated National Recreation Trail. It is said to be one of America’s most impressive waterfall day hikes. As the name implies, it features 10 waterfalls, five of which are more than 100 feet tall all in a fairly easy seven mile loop hike that returns you to the starting point.

At four of the falls the trail takes you behind the cascade through impressive and mossy caverns.

Standing on the path, just 20 feet from the edge of where Silver Creek seems to fall off the edge of the earth, I felt vertigo.

I continued down the winding path and in a few hundred yards was in a large dripping cavern behind the wide silver vale of South Falls. I tucked my camera in my jacket as there was an everpresent mist here. After another short walk I sat in a Zen-like state watching the perpetual explosion of spray as the 177-foot falls crashed into the pool below. I snapped a photo realizing that there were nine more falls to admire on this hike I headed down a paved path which pasted a county style gift shop then on about a hundred yards to the overlook of South Falls. From here you take a paved trail to the right. It offers great views, and then loops down into the canyon and behind South Falls.

The 177-foot tall South Falls is located just 100 yards away from the historic Silver Falls lodge. It is one of 10 falls located only one hour away from Clackamas Community College’s main campus in Oregon City.

TRACK: Local athletes step up at state meet Continued from Page 1

Andrew Millbrooke The Clackamas Print

Lakeridge claimed a very tight 6A girls race to win the team title with 48.5 points, finishing just ahead of Barlow (46), Sunset (44.5) and Jesuit (44).

Barlow’s Danelle Woodcock earned 6A girls high point scorer by winning the 100, finishing second in the long jump and triple jump, while running a leg on the victorious short relay team. Barlow’s 4x100 relay time of 47.61 is second fastest in Oregon prep history.

It was a meet to remember as the first ever OSAA all classification (6A-1A) State Track and Field Championships were held last Thursday, Friday and Saturday at Hayward Field in Eugene. More than 23,000 spectators came out over the three-day meet, including an announced 11,000 for the 4A, 5A and 6A finals on Saturday.

Brosseau was impressed with the crowd’s size and intensity.

He is also unfazed about his reception when he returns wearing the rival purple Husky colors.

“It’s a whole different beast down here. It’s crazy. The crowd, they get going and all their clapping, it gives you goose bumps,” said Brosseau.

“I’m still happy to be able to compete. I know they’ll bring me in with open arms down here.”

One athlete that knows she will be welcomed with open arms next season in Eugene is Molalla senior Claire Thomas.

Thomas, who has signed with Oregon to do the heptathlon,

repeated as 4A girls champion in both hurdles races and the long jump, while running a leg on the winning long relay team.

“It’s the best feeling knowing that this is where I’m going to be everyday next year,” said Thomas. “It gives me goose bumps thinking that this is my home and I’m really excited to see what I do next year for the Ducks.”

Thomas’ 32.5 points was good for high point scorer among 4A girls, just outdistancing North Valley junior Venessa D’Arpino’s 30.5 points. Thomas set meet records in both the 100 and 300 hurdles, while D’Arpino sped to the day’s fastest times in any classification in the 100, 200 and 400.

LaPine’s Jeremy Desrosiers was the 4A boys high point scorer with 30 points. Desrosiers won the 200 and 400, while placing second in the long jump and running a leg on the second place short relay.

Marist junior Liam Henshaw had the top pole vault mark of the meet at 15-6, while also winning the long jump and placing third in the 110 hurdles and fourth in the high jump to become the 5A boys high point scorer with 30 points.

Hermiston’s McKenzie Byrd placed first in the javelin, second in the shot put and third in the high jump to claim 5A girls high point scorer with 24 points.

Summit High School of Bend won its seventh straight 5A girls championship and third straight 5A boys title. Gladstone won the 4A girls title, while Siuslaw won the 4A boys team championship.

Claire Thomas, a University of Oregon bound recruit from Molalla High School, won four events at the OSAA State Track and Field Championships at Hayward Field in Eugene for the second straight year. Thomas set meet records in the 100 hurdles and 300 hurdles, while winning the long jump and running a leg on the victorious 4x400 relay team. Thomas is transitioning to the multi-events and will compete in the heptathlon for the Ducks next year.

Sports Calendar

The Clackamas Community College track and field team performed well at the NWAACC Championships in Spokane on May 20-21 in what was eventually a three-team race as Lane, Clackamas and Spokane filled out the top three spots in both the men’s and women’s standings.

Lane Community College claimed both the men’s and women’s titles as the Cougar women took second place and the men garnered third.

Spokane Community College was second in the men’s and third in the women’s standings.

The men’s meet was closer, but Lane’s (227.5) superior depth outlasted Spokane (222) and Clackamas (171.5) with Mt. Hood (41) a distant fourth. The Titan women dominated with 252.5 points to Clackamas’ 173, with Spokane (96.5) and Everett (91.75) third and fourth.

Spokane’s Wes Bailey was high point scorer in the men’s meet, as part of five winning events on his way to 35 points.

Local sports radio should stay local A.M. Sports Andrew Millbrooke

Sports Editor

This term I have had the opportunity to work at one of Portland’s sports talk radio stations through the CCC’s Cooperative Work Experience Program. My experience has been great, as I have been able to see the inner workings of radio shows that I have only listened to in the past. The one thing I am realizing that is not so great about sports talk radio is that all of the shows talk about the same topic in an endless blabbering loop.

The national shows that begin early in the morning start on the topic of the day and by the time the local shows go on the air, the topic has been tread and re-tread to death. For example, in game one of the NBA’s Eastern Conference finals, the Indiana Pacers inexplicably left their best rim protecting defender, center Roy Hibbert, on the bench and then lost to the Heat on a driving layup by LeBron James at the buzzer.

Immediately the reaction on Twitter was swift and decisive. Indiana head coach Frank Vogel was crucified.

ESPN NBA analyst Michael Wilbon (@ RealMikeWilbon) tweeted “Vogel should apologize to his team for sabotaging their chance to win...Enormous coaching mistake...not once but twice...”

Dick Vitale (@DickieV) said it best with his tweet, “Vogel will have to answer press as to y HIBBERT a shot blocker was an assistant coach sitting on pine - I don’t get itprotect the rim.”

The morning talk shows opened with the topic and discussed it and dissed Vogel all day long. By the time it got to the local afternoon radio shows, the topic had been through the wringer and was ready to be put to bed. Or, that’s what you would think.

Instead, the local afternoon host led his show with audio of LeBron’s winning basket and the announcer’s incredulous response to the Pacer’s defense. It was almost 24 hours later, but there goes the local host with the retread topic as his lead story. Boring.

It made me want to scream.

If you are a local radio show, you don’t need to repeat minor national issues, like a basketball game. Find something interesting happening local and break the story or have an opinion on a fresh, new topic to get a discussion started. This retread attitude continues day after day and it becomes a monotonous routine to listen to.

So much local sports action goes on, while the local hosts would rather discuss a day old game that was played thousands of miles away. I enjoy listening to national hosts like Colin Cowherd, Dan Patrick and Jim Rome discuss the big news, early in the day, but I want my local sports show to have some hometown flavor and exhibit some homegrown knowledge on something other than the Blazers.

If these current hosts won’t do it, maybe I will?

Clackamas wrestling team says goodbye to some, hello to others David Beasley General Associate Editor “Where do we go from here?” some might ask after Cougar wrestlers said farewell to a large portion of the team.

“I’m real proud,” said head coach Josh Rhoden. “Twelve kids graduated and we gotta’ replace ‘em all, but that means we’re doing good. I’m glad to see it’s working out for those guys.”

Of those departing, three team members answered some “what’s next” questions for The Clackamas Print.

A tasty flair with “global” cuisine at University of Portland Breanna Craine & Brittany Horne Arts & Culture Editor and News Editor

THE PRINT NEEDS YOU! Interested in being a part of The Print team here at CCC? Come apply at Roger Rook Hall 135. Free tuition offered!

The search for perfect college food may have found its match, not desperately far from our own campus. University of Portland’s superb quality can only be compared to PSU’s quantity. We, Brittany Horne and Breanna Craine, have gone on our last offcampus college dining adventure this spring.

We decided to go to University of Portland to check out their food options, rumored to be spectacular. Pulling into the campus was a beautiful sight, it truly looked like a university campus.

The parking spots were few and small. Most of the parking lots required permits but we found the visitor parking and walked into the administration building to ask where the food was.

We were sent to Bauccio Commons. Once we walked up to the front doors, we noticed a glass box with what looked like a real fireplace. The fireplace was enclosed and was coming up from the ground, a line of flames emerging from a layer of beautiful colored stones. Beautiful architecture covers the entire campus; its old looking buildings with some modern touches make this school intriguing to all.

The cafeteria itself had a modern feel to it, something that you would never imagine on a campus. Then again this is a university, compared to a community college, like we are used to. It had a cozy feel to it that made us feel comfortable enough to leave our valuables at the table before browsing and ordering our food.

Brittany tried the chipotle zesty chicken breast burger basket with fries from the “grill” station for $6.75 and an extra $1.25 for apple wood smoked bacon. It included two pieces of chipotle seasoned chicken, a delicious specialty bun, lettuce, onion, tomato and house made pickles.

The fries were absolutely delicious, sprinkled with a seasoning mix, prepared homestyle with the skin left on. They were just the right amount of crispy on the outside, soft on the inside.

The chicken burger was really good, an indulgence, but not the kind that makes you feel entirely unhealthy. It was fresh and filling, seasoned with great chipotle that packed some punch for this chipotle connoisseur.

The cheeseburger with apple wood smoked bacon basket included a 1/4 pound of beef, cheese, crispy lettuce, bacon, fries, onion, tomato, pickles and the same specialty bun.

This giant bacon cheese burger was perfectly filling for someone who is hungry. The bun itself was very fluffy which made the whole burger almost impossible to fit in your mouth for a bite.

This meal cost $6.70 which is a decent amount, considering the fries and added bacon.

The carne asada plate which included Carman Ranch beef with black beans, spanish rice, corn tortillas, diced onions, shredded cabbage, cilantro, pico de gallo, sour cream and cheese was shared and enjoyed by both of us. The meat was well cooked, just a little flair from the onion and cilantro. Brittany usually doesn’t like avocado but thought that it went well in this dish.

This meal came from the “global” part of the cafeteria.

Every week, the chefs choose a different global food menu for lunch and dinner for students to try. The U of P students are required to have a meal plan so they try to keep the food options open with a good selection.

They offered several kinds of drinks for students to purchase. Breanna tried a vitamin infused water called Activate.

You twist the top to release the powdered vitamins to enhance the flavor. The flavor I tried was Very Berry which “enhances beauty.” Obviously a bottle of water will not turn you into the most beautiful woman, but the drink was tasty. The powder dissolved pretty well, but some sips had a grainy texture to it.

Brittany had a Double Chocolate milk from Nestlé, a familiar drink although it isn’t offered everywhere. This went well with the snickerdoodle and orange white chocolate cookies we got and decided to save for the drive back to CCC. We were too full to eat them right away, after splitting three large meals between the two of us.

During U of P’s summer, “The Cove” has a more limited selection. Stations such as the taco-ria and pizza bar are not always available. This tasty and cozy cafeteria seems to do a great job of feeding its residents – there are 6,000 transactions a day from the 18,000 people that live on campus, according to Kirk Mustain, who runs the food services at U of P. He stopped by our table to greet us while we were enjoying our food. Who even knows who runs the Cougar Station at CCC? All this food means a lot of garbage and dishes as well.

The Cove has a row of different waste disposal bins such as compost, waste, recyclables and plastic as well as a rotating rack for the dishwasher. All you have to do is put your leftover items in the correct bins and then place your plate on the rack. The machine does the rest for you.

Our conclusion for U of P is that it would be a fairly tasty and convenient place to eat if we were living in the campus dorms and decent on the pocketbook as well. However, going just every once in awhile serves as a wonderful treat. We would definitely like to go there again, or even better, have a program similar to theirs at Clackamas. If you are choosing your school based on the food alone – considering quality, quantity and value – U of P would be the obvious choice.

PLAY: ‘Schemes’ break the silence

Above: Jake Dannen, left, plays Sylvestro who is the servant to the Argantini family. He is in charge of taking care of the children. Derek NcNeil, center, plays Ottavio who is the son of Argantini. Jayme S. Hall, right, plays Scapino who is the main character and a trickster. Below: Ottavio eloped with the beautiful Giacinta who is played by Kiah Hart.

They share a romantic kiss on stage.

Continued from Page 1

The acting and casting was phenomenal. Props to the director, James Eikrem! He did a stellar job making the physical, complex tale look smooth and trouble-free. There is nonstop action and Eikrem pulled the audience into it. The actors looked like they were having a blast and it almost felt necessary to have at least as much fun as they were having.

The silent movie era is when this play was originally written and it is quite obvious in the talented use of silent acting and comedy similar to Laurel and Hardy. At first, the acting seemed a bit over the top, but as the production went on, it all fit together like puzzle pieces.

Each of the actors had their own little quirk that made their character their own. Some went unnoticed and others were blatantly obvious.

Jayme Hall, who played Scapino, added so much to the production. He was wildly energetic with his schemes and cons, charm and charisma. Hall is a bundle of energy and comic ingenuity, but doesn’t overpower the show. Instead he makes it explode and burst like fireworks. His facial expressions,

use of alternating characters and ability to act a whole scene by himself, while pretending to be multiple different characters, really showed Hall’s experience and theoretical genius.

Sam Levi, who played Argantini, father to Ottavio, added brilliant little touches to his character. He definitely played up his cane and over used it in any way possible.

Whether sitting or standing, he slumped over his cane like a sack of rice. However, when he got wound up, he was all over the place. It seemed a bit over done, but for his character it worked quite well.

There is no small actor.

However, the minor actors added comedy in their cameos or off stage sounds and remarks.

Nicholas Hadley as Giulietta, lured people up to the whorehouse, producing fits of giggles from the audience. Clayton Hiatt played a few different characters and the audience found him quite humorous.

Clackamas Community College Theatre Arts Department is presenting a fun-filled evening of comic theater that should not be missed. The Schemes of Scapino runs through June 2 in the Niemeyer Building in the Osterman theater.
