P S Y CHIC PLOT Joe Ornton's comedy What the Butler Saw was staged by the University Theatre Department in early February. The comedy farse of Ornton's play featured a lack of common sense running rampant in a psychiatric ward. The plot is filled with comedy as sexual hijinks and adultery escalate to lunacy, director Gray Eubank said. It is a play in which reality becomes fuzzy and characters trade identities. Eubank said. A unique feature of What the Butler Saw was the costuming of the characters. The cast ended up at various stages of undress throughout the play, making production a bit risque. “It was a daring production Eubank said. Dr. Prentice ( played by David Cole) and his prospective secretary (played by Eileen Chauvet) triggered the action with their flirtatious endeavors. When Dr. Prentice's wife (played by A COMEDY FARSE PORTRAYING FLIRTATIOUS ENDEAVORS Kirsten Lee) entered the picture, the play moved toward great confusion. Eubank claimed that he had wanted to do a production of What the Butler Saw for a number of years, but never had the opportunity. “It's a terrific play, both in it's aspects of obvious physical slapstick, and the complex layers of humor. Audiences can really enjoy this type of production, Eubank said. - Denise I. Rohr beck Making a point Dr. Prentice. David Cole, and the hospital inspector.
