Plotless and perhaps even pointless, Gerald Arpino's Trinity nonetheless represents a throbbing fusion of classic dance with the sound of now. It perfectly epitomizes the jaunty style and passionate, youthful temperament of the New York City Center's Joffrey Ballet...
...became important in the late 1940s when the plasma waves he had postulated were detected in the laboratory. Soon his theories may produce a bigger dividend: physicists are convinced that plasmas offer the only practical means of attaining the enormous temperatures (630 million degrees F.) needed for controlled nuclear fusion. Restlessly, Alfvén has already expanded into other fields: cosmology (the universe, he contends, is made up of equal quantities of matter and antimatter), science fiction (The Tale of the Big Computer), music (the book for a data-technology opera) and space planning (he is currently campaigning...

...Zones , now in its world premiere at the Charles Playhouse, is a series of fairy-tale plot fragments saturated in Faust-derived moralizing. The combination is heavy, uneven and often downright tedious, but director Louis Criss breathes some life into the subject matter through experiments, somewhat erratic, in fusion of stage and film action.

To suggest a chase within the house, the director achieves an even more perfect fusion of film and stage action. As the real Soldier and Gloria gape from one open window, the other window shutter springs open, on film, and we see the ominous Mrs. Schmidt-Gordon seeking her prey...
