I • . • PAC1E.8 PLAINDEALER- FRIDAY, JANUARY 13, 19S4 general •• u^i ai News McHenry actress is true-to-life in Two new hospital programs meet counjty health needs Achievements at \ Memorial Hospital during the past year includeHhe development of two programs' to meet needs of county residents in specialized areas of health care. Reviewing the past year, Lee tVsce, executive director, said the lx>ard of directors continued expansion and development of its inpatient psychiatric ser­ vices program and developed the base for an inpatient alcohol and substance abuse program. In both instances, the need was not being met anywhere else in McHenry County. Memorial Hospital has taken leadership in both fields of. specialized care, enhancing its position as a leader in McHenry County health care services. The alcohol and substance abuse treatment program will open "in 1984, following detailed planning In 1983 that received necessary local, regional and state approval before im­ plementation. Both programs--substance abuse andpsychiatric services - are in conjunction with the Family Service and Community Mental Health Center of McHenry County. This relationship helps assure continuity of c$fe from the in­ patient to the outpatient set­ ting," said Pesce. approval for a designated 10-bed psychiatric unit was received in 1982, and the services began then on a limited basis. Construction of this new unit will be completed in February, 1984. The alcohol and substance abuse treatment program will be hospital-based and has distinct area of 10 beds for rehabilitation. "With the completion of this program, McHenry County will have its first complete range of community-based services for this illness. This will include detoxification, inpatient and outpatient rehabilitation, family counseling and aftercare," concluded Pesce. by Joel Wakitsch "Pertect Setup," a three-act play currently running at An­ dre's Steak House in Richmond, is a realistic portrayal of the love triangle in action. Deceit, romance, fighting and emotions all mix on stage for two more weekends in the American Repertory Theatre System (ARTS) production. The story is centered around three performers who are convincing in their portrayal of a believable 20th century love affair. The outcome is typical, but deceiving, as a rocky marriage is renewed as a result of false hope. One has to wonder if the marriage would ever last if the story was allowed to continue. (it was far from a happy ending. The highlights of the per­ formance lieNin the characters who were true-to-life and worthy of close examination. McHenry's own Yvonne Alton, a familiar face to ARTS viewers who most recently appeared in "I ought to be in Pictures" as Steffy, plays the role of Ann in "Perfect Setup." She is th£ crafty wife who has known ofr her husband's extra-marital affairs for years and devises a calculated plan to win her husband back. Ann is the pillar of strength who seems unemotional throughout most of her well-executed plan, but also knew when to turn on the charm to lure her husband back. Ann's keen intuition is the force that makes her plan successful, but she continually justifies her own unethical tactics (her own love affair) by seeing them as ̂ necessary part of the plan. Her cynical remarks in response to the questioning of her mate stand out as some of the play's most humorous. She continually displays a con­ temporary attitude that her exta-marital affair is justified because "thousands of women do it." Anh^also approaches the risks and challenges Involved as necessary elements that make the game fun for her. Paul, an intellectual public relations man who tries to analyze every detail of his love affair and marriage, is expertly played by Ron Ferraro of Crystal Lake. Ron also ap­ peared in "I Ought to be in Pictures" as Herb besides his several TV and movie leads. Paul finds himself in the middle of two women who both know they control him. He is continually dished small bits of female reality to analyze, but Paul rarely brings his analysis to clear-cut conclusions. This leads to his forever reacting to situations with barely any in­ telligence at all. Uttering on many occasions that he is guilty for creating his bad marriage, Paul never is convicted enough P to change for good. Con­ sequently , each bad situation is usually followed up with another bad decision. Paul's impulsive actions seem to be directly related to his wayward life philosophy. In regard to marriage, he claims that "a man must be natural and free/' and that it "shouldn't be a restrictive jail." He uses his intellect to also justify this Sin; "What's moral for one isn't always moral for another," he determined. He longs to find the right life philosophy after trying them all/ "Jesus, Marx and Freud." The third corner of the triangle is masterfully carved by Virginia Zymonas who plays the seductive Janet. Also a Crystal Lake resident, Virginia is known for the lead vibrato role in "A Funny Thing Hap­ pened on the Way to the Forum," as well as other soloist parts with the McHenry County Chamber Singers and Northern Illinois Choral Association. - Janet is a young divorcee who tries hard to make others think she's happy with her care-free lifestyle. Like Ann, she is crafty in her handling of Paul. She always says the right thing to ease the guilt-ridden conscience of her lover. Her relationship with Paul is marked by little commitment, and she is happy that they "need each other without any demands^" which seems to be contradictory. Also, basing her actions only on present cir­ cumstances, Janet finds herself eventually contradicting her own lifestyle. For instance, in one segement, she is shown sleeping through Paul's heart­ felt marriage proposal and quite opposed to his moving in with her. Later on, however, Janet admits that she is "a lost lamb" without him and that she would like him to move permanently into her apartment. Without a doubt, the three stars played characters who genuinely reflect the ^roken .morals and deceitful attitudes of our day. Although the ending is predictable and somewhat naive of the future of any immoral relationship, the characters are well worth studying. If audiences will take the time to discern the motivations behind the actions of Ann, Paul and Janet* they will realize the play depicts a "perfect setup" only in the eyes of a permissive generation. "Perfect Setup" continues on Jan 13, 14, 15, 20, 21, and 22 as part of the winter dinner theatre package. Reservations can be made for remaining dates or for the February or March , of­ ferings, "Hot Turkey at Mid­ night" and "Champagne Complex" by calling (815) 678- 2671.
