Civic Series Present
Los Bailes Espanoles
Tarleton students and citizens
from the surrounding area will
have an opportunity to see one qf
Spain's most popular and exciting
song-and-dance companies when
Jose Molina's Bailes Espanoles
appears at the Main Auditorium
on Monday, March 2, at 8 p.m.
The handsome young company
of ten Flamenco dancers, singers,
and instrumentalists scored a spec-
tacular overnight success when it
premiered in Washington, D. C., in
May of 1902.
Critics there acclaimed it "the
most dazzling display of Flamenco
fireworks this city has seen in
many a season" and predicted it
was "destined to become the num-
ber one Flamenco song-and-dance
company in the U. S.
The new program consists of
songs and dances from all of the
Spanish provinces, from the court
of Charles III, from the great
Spanish operas and ballets, and
from the Spanish gypsy camps.
There are even some works by
non-Spanish composers, such as
Ravel and Rimsky - Korsakov,
thrown in for good measure.
Costumes for the> production
were designed in Madrid by Spain's
foremost designers and are ap-
praised at $80,000.
After the introduction of Fla-
Satirical
Film To
Be Shown
"The Mouse That Roared," ah
English comedy starring Peter
Sellers in three separate roles, will
be shown in the Ag Auditorium to-
night at seven o'clock.
Sellers, one of the finest British
comics, plays three officials of the
Grand Duchy of Fenwick, a fic-
titious country in Europe: the
Grand Duchess Gloriana, ruler of
the country; the crafty Prime Min-
ister, Count Mountjoy; and the
bumbling field marshal Bascombe.
The film begins with the plot of
Mountjoy to declare war on the
United States, so that when Grand
Fenwick loses (as it inevitably
must, with a tiny army armed
with weapons from the Middle
Ages), the country will be "re-
built" with big amounts of Ameri-
can money.
Field Marshal Bascombe "in-
vades" New York with an army of
20 men, armed with longbows, and
takes a number of hostages. Un-
fortunately, Bascombe accidental-
ly gets possession of a new wea-
pon, the Q bomb, which can de-
stroy an area of two million square
miles, and makes Fenwick the most
powerful country in the world.
The ensuing diplomatic tangle, is,
like the rest of the film, played for
laughs.
Sellers, director Jack Arnold,
and writers Stanley Mann and Ar-
thur MacDougall make "The Mouse
That Roared" a fast, funny, sa-
tirical evening of entertainment.
meneo music to the student body
last year with the appearance of
Carlos Montoya, the Civic Series
Committee felt that this new area
of entertainment might even be
more spectacular with the addition
of dancers.
