     RUMORS, a farce by Neil Simon which was recently produced on

Broadway, will open October 15th at the CABARET THEATRE.
     

     Set in the home of Charley and Myra Brock in Sneden's Landing,

New York, RUMORS is the story of four couples and their ability to get

themselves in and out of trouble by simply opening their mouths.

Directed by Dana S. Rakvica, a member of the CABARET staff and owner

and director of the Summer Theatre of Stoughton in Massachusetts,

RUMORS boasts a talented cast made up of 10 students from Rutgers

University.  Some are familiar faces to the CABARET, such as Bob

Donnelly, Skye Gabel, Charles Grayson, and Paolo Montalban.  Others

are making their debut on the CABARET stage, although by no means

their debut in theatre.  These talents include Ann Doherty, Jack

Fernandez, Stu Goldstein, Surabhi Kukke, Barbara Panas, and Carl

Wiltsee.


     RUMORS opens Thursday, October 15th and continues on October

16th, 17th, 22nd, 23rd, and 24th.  Performances are at 8pm on

Thursdays, and 8pm and 11pm on Fridays and Saturdays.  Tickets are $4

for students and $5 for non-students.  The CABARET THEATRE is located

on the corner of Nichol Avenue and Suydam Street on the Douglass

Campus.

(Enough of the official press release...)

     Some general information: The Cabaret Theatre is the corner
section of the Jameson Building (which includes a health center, dorms
and another smaller theatre and encompasses most of the block) where
Suydam Street meets Nichol Avenue.  You may have known it at one time
as the Jameson Pool (the pool downstairs was closed about 2 years
ago).  The door is on the Suydam side of the building.  
     Cabaret is the only co-ed organization on Douglass and relies
entirely on its own income.  We are not supported by the University in
any way.
     
Directions:

     From College Avenue, by bus: take either the E or the EE.  After
you've passed through the downtown New Brunswick area and enter
Douglass Campus, exit the bus at the first stop (while you're still on
George Street).  Walk uphill to the light.  This is the intersection
of Nichol and George.  Turn right onto Nichol and walk one block to
Suydam.  The Cabaret Theatre is on your right, on your side of the
street.  The buses run until at least 2am.  The show is not expected
to last past 11pm.

     From Busch campus, by bus:  the G stops running long before the
shows open, so you'll have to bus over from College Avenue.

     From College Avenue, by car: find George Street and head toward
Douglass (away from Busch/Livingston and the Bridge).  You'll pass
through a number of lights before you come to the intersection of
Commercial Avenue and George Street.  There will be gas stations to
either side of you and a sign announcing Douglass across the street.
Continue, going straight through this light and up the hill to the
next light.  Turn right here (Chapel Road is to your left, the
Douglass Student center is across the street on the right), onto
Nichol Ave and drive up one block to Suydam.  Turn right onto Suydam
and park.

     From Route 18 North: take the jug handle for Commercial Ave to
turn left off the highway (stay in the far right lane; the sign is
small, it's green with white lettering and difficult to see if you're
not looking for it; it is the second light after you get on 18 from
the Turnpike; if you see a sign for New Street EXIT ONLY, you've gone
too far) and drive up Commercial to the light.  This is the
intersection of Commercial and George St.  Get in the left lane and
turn left at this light.  At the next light, turn right onto Nichol
Ave.  The next right is Suydam.

     PARKING:  if there is no street parking by the time you arrive,
there is a parking lot and deck across Nichol avenue and down the
one-way street next to the Co-op Bookstore.  It is visible from
Cabaret. 

If you have any questions about performances or becoming involved with
the theatre, please send me mail:  kjc@cs.rutgers.edu.
