PITTSBURGH POST-GAZETTE: Jan. 30, 1981 22 Troupe settles at Chatham Feople of "Living Together," second part of Alan Ayckbourn's trilogy "The Norman Conquests." Because of professional commitments by several company members, production of the third play has been postponed. All three Ayckbourn plays, "Table Manners," ''Living Together" and "Round and Rouna the Garden" will be staged in revolving repertory from June 4 to Aug. 2. First, the company will produce two Harold Pinter one-acts.

The Winter Company, the city's newest theater company, has taken up residence in the Playroom performing space in Woodland Hall at Chatham College. "A recently concluded agreement with Chatham will give us a base from which to work while we continue negotiations for a permanent home," said Charles Altman, managing director. The Winter Company recently scored a success with its production he said. Perlman, 35, said some things were being done to make it easier for disabled people to enter public buildings, but more action was needed. Perlman told the U.S.

Council for the International Year of Disabled Persons that the disabled represent a "very important part of our work force, what we are going to give them, we are going to get back." As Maine goes Stacy Teas, 14, of Cape Elizabeth, Maine, is the 1981 All-American Girl, winning the title in New York City. Accompanying her at the auspicious event in the life of so young a girl were her proud parents, Mr. and Mrs. Scott Teas and her little brother, Joshua, 8. "-'IM-U MW Will I II INI Ml I iW v'Y; 4 7 Her heroine: Maureen Reagan told the San Diego Lawyer's Club her "role model" is 19th-century suffragette Elizabeth Cady Stanton, whose congressman-father disowned her for speaking out for women's rights.

"I've learned that a little friendly disagreement with my father is the better way," the president's elder daughter said. But she foresees "no adverse effect from my father's election on the women's rights movement" even though he opposes the Equal Rights Amendment She said "the politics of the 1980s will have to be taking the best from the left and right and forging a new middle philosophy. regardless of who is in the White House." Changing careers again: Dallas Cowboy defensive end Ed "Too Tall" Jones, who gave up football lor a time to try boxing, has a new career singing. "I've been singing for years, mostly in groups," Jones said at one of several Memphis appearances to plug his first single, "Funkin' On Your Radio." Actually he doesn't sing much on the record. "Mostly it's me rapping with disco," he said.

"I've heard some other people's first releases and they weren't that good. I'm in the ballpark." If singing and football fail, Jones, 29, 6-foot-9 and 270 pounds, can always fall back on acting. He appeared in three films and will do an episode of TV's "Diff'rent Strokes." Musicians' sidelights: Rock star Don Henley of The Eagles, charged "The most unusual and daring picture made in Hollywood in many decades A completely unique departure from any film in memory like no major motion picture ever produced!" -VmnnnScoii.

After you've done a good job and have been paid, it's time for the glitter and the prizes." Clean-cut Cliff Richard, on the image of rock stars: "Who told the press that to be a rock singer you had to be either a sex maniac or a drug addict?" Soap opera star Stuart Damon on sexual freedom of daytime TV: "We get away with a lot more than they do at night. There's a lot of passion going on in daytime TV."

And you may love watching the latest dance, the Pogo.

It's not named after the comic-strip character but the bouncing stick, because dancers jump up and down to the music. Up and down to such tunes as "Crash Their Brains In," and other numbers Johnny Mathis probably will never record. "Punk music is a cult thing," Zarra said. "And the people who follow it, the New Wavers, are to the '80s what the beatniks were to the '50s and the hippies were to the '60s. "The music really is a statement.

It's rebellious and it concerns world events from nuclear power to the KKK. And it's to the point. There's one lyric that goes: 'What do you say to the KKK. (expletive deleted)." "And that's a ballad," Zarra said, breaking into a laugh that sounded like Broderick Crawford clearing his throat He added that all of the New Zarra is so enamored of the music that he's forming a Punk band of his own. "I'm putting together some of the best musicians in town and hope to form the ultimate Punk group," he said.

And the name: "JZ and the Pestilence. You like it?" We'd rather not say, JZ. We'd rather not say. The Electric Banana opens at 8:30 p.m. tonight and tomorrow.

Bands perform from 10 p.m.-2 a.m. Wave bands that play his club, such as the highly regarded Silencers and Car-sickness, do only original material. "In that respect, the groups are far and away more innovative than the typical Top 40 groups, who just recycle old Barry Manilow or Neil Diamond tunes. "At first, the music's a little hard to take. But after a while, you can really get into it When I first heard it, I couldn't stand it But I sort of like it now.

Either that, or I'm going crazy." sun crazy OH VIHIV Pl( II Kl IIVWMI MISMII fHODl ll(l GENE WILDER RICHARD PRYOR jmijiiiiiiiijiiwiiWIIM JlLLIJHPigPjlggmSgl omi i im i ii II I Ifff i -re Iwftjue wi. yjowMGS moid tjl i 1 SUN It HOUMYi HST MATIMH SWOW OWH 1 COMING FBI FFR fi i i STIR CRAZY iff-' tea vfe OAKRIDRF BOYS Mumi In lOMstOtr-txeculivo Pmriuipr MEHULt II MR ProdutPd bi HSWH UflSSItlS' Vnllinht HKU I I IKIII)US it I tuniu i ui i in hi I i in iny.i.i.i i Chfe Mown Owwy CNaM 1 I Ticrm tnwuma QUI IMS (ft) 9 TP 5 (PG) Jf Info: 836-8000 TMlay ml 7,70 9.4J Gm H. hWd Prrer STIR CRAZY (R) ladmr 1 74Q A x4t The PALACE THEATRE Cartaa So.
