' He seeks self-discipline
‘La Mancha9 choreographer runs tight ship
Self - discipline and a firm
grasp of basic techniques are
prim ary concerns of Gary
Naylor, an Arizona State Uni­
versity itudent from Phoenix
who is choreographing “Man of
La Mancha.”
The prize - winning show will be
staged at 8 p.m. July 2,3 and 5 at
Gammage Auditorium by Lyric.
Opera Theatre and ASU Players.
Trained a t the American
' School of Ballet in Los Angeles,
Naylor is running rehearsals like
a professional ballet class. No
talking. No fooling around. And
when rehearsals are over, his
dancers know they’ve had a
workout.
“You can’t just go out and be
interpretive,” Naylor says. “A
lot of grueling work is required,
especially in a powerful show like
this which demands so much of
the cast.”
Like “West Side Story,” “La
Mancha” is highly dramatic. It
requires a cast that is strong —
not just adequate — as actors,
dancers and singers, the choreo­
grapher said.
“It’s my favorite show,” he
added, “and it’s particularly
great for male dancers.”
