This season Odetta will be among the featured artists in this mini-series.Richards wants to expand future BCBC programming in the areas of ethnic theater and dance. A Caribbean dance festival is a possibility and an expansion of BCBC%u2019s presentations of Yiddish theater might materialize. Yiddish theatre at BCBC is performed with projected English %u201csupertitles%u201d a la City Opera.Along with the Brooklyn Academy of Music, the Brooklyn Center for the Performing Arts at Brooklyn College has made Brooklyn an international center for dance, and Marian Skokan hopes to draw more of a downtown Brooklyn audience.%u201cIt%u2019s only a 15 minute train ride from downtown Brooklyn to Flatbush, less time than it takes to get to Lincoln Center. It%u2019s just a matter of looking in the other direction. Brooklynites should get to know their own territory,%u201d Skokan says.Even though the BCBC halls are large, full houses are the norm, so run to BCBC for the cultural bargain of the year.BROOKLYN CENTER FOR THE PERFORMING ARTS AT BROOKLYN COLLEGE: BCBC, for subscription information for the fall season programs, call 434-4242.'Alice Underwater' Runs Aground In ALackluster Performance At Prospect ParkBYNICKFRACAROWith 13 million visitors expected to crowd into New York City this weekend to celebrate the Statue of Liberty%u2019s centennial, it is apropos to note that there is another centennial marked that will for the most part go unnoticed. W.H. Auden observed that July 4th is as memorable a day in the history of literature as it is in American history.It was on a Friday, July 4,1862, that Reverend Charles Lutwidge Dodgson took an unforgettable boat ride with a pretty ten year old girl named Alice and that three years later, also on July 4th, he published a work of literature called %u201cAlice%u2019s Adventures in Wonderland,%u201d commemorating this boat ride. Some years later, in 1886, Lewis Carroll presented his inspiration, Alice Lidell, with a facsimile of his earlier work %u2014 a hand lettered, crudely illustrated, significantly shorter piece entitled %u201cAlice Underground.%u201dLast Friday, 100 years later, attending The Floating Cinema%u2019s presentation of %u201c Alice Underwater%u201d at Prospect Park, I was expecting fireworks equal to this work and equal to this weekend%u2019s celebration. Well, not really, but the promotion of the event suggested I could. %u201c Powerful images, like nighttime fireworks, light up the sky.%u201d The idea of presenting films on two floating vessels that could move along the idyllic shoreline of Prospect Lake in the cool evening breeze piqued my imagination.Alas. There were no nighttime fireworks. No oohs and aahs from the children sitting around me. nothing to engage either child or adult for very long, before all the initial anticipation was forgotten.It is difficult to dislike The Floating Cinema as an event. I enjoyed being out ofdoors by a lake at night %u2014 the group of us casually sitting on benches, on the ground against trees, unconfined by a natural environment. In this respect it was intriguing and unprecedented.But, %u201cAlice was beginning to get very tired of sitting by her sister on the bank, and of having nothing to do: once or twice she had peeped into the book her sister was reading, but it has not pictures or conversations in it and what is the use of a book,%u2019 thought Alice, %u2018without pictures or converThere w ere no nighttim efirew o rks.

It is everything I associate with the pretension and hollowness of pseudo avant garde art. Boring and banal, beginning and ending with the concept. After the films%u2019 first few images, the first few minutes, the two floating vessels with rear projectors began to sink.Prospect Park will open this weekend for camping to the visitors attending the July 4th celebration. Many of these visitors will come to appreciate the park more during their short stay than those of us who have it at our doorstep. Adventures like The Floating Cinema must ultimately be supported, and not just in concept. They bring us what is ours to celebrate by gift. As we become more prolific with our support, we will be able to add form and substance to that gift with more assurance.P a g e 12, T H E P H O E N IX , Ju ly 3 ,1 9 8 6
