BRUIN HOMECOMING TITLE 'BORROWED' FROM ENGLISH
The UCLAns have hit the jackpot this time.
The title of their Homecoming show has just been released and it leaves nothing to the imagination of their student body. Someone on the campus put all the elements together and came out with “A Satire on Humans with Interspersed Songs, a Subtle Theme, Occasional Risque Dances, and Laughable Sketches for All.”
It could be a title but it sounds more like a press agent’s nightmare.
Whoever concocted it claims it is the longest title ever attempted by a theatrical production. He may be right about that, but the idea goes ’way, ’way back.
The street balladeers of the Elizabethan and Ren-naissance periods used to announce the contents of their news stories with titles of about the same length and complication.
These chroniclers would come out in the street and start like this: “On the strange murder of Edward Callaghan, the ninth Earl of Emsworth, the circumstances surrounding it, the search for his murderer, and the investigation of the clues.” Then they would go on to tell about it.
Is it possible that our Westwood neighbors are becoming literary geniuses, or are they just swiping ideas from their English Literature books?
