Monday, Jan. 23, 1981 Philadelphia Inquirer 3-F THE ARTS JM A little snow puts a chill on the box office On theater I wx sf Mi II tf if fj By William B. Collins Inquirer Theater Critic Nobody, but nobody, prays for a mild winter harder than theater people. Snow is unadulterated bad news. The show must and almost invariably does go on.

But the public is under no such obligation. With television and radio stations treating every winter snowfall like the Blizzard of '88, warning listeners not to venture from their homes until the all-clear, audiences dissolve before curtain time. Ticket-holders call to try to switch their seats to a future performance. People who haven't bought tickets decide they won't, not even for a future performance, because who knows what the weather will be doing next Thursday? Consider the situation at the Walnut Street Theater last Wednesday evening. Roughly 380 chilled ticket-holders showed up for the lively comedy Morning's at Seven, but none of the volunteer ushers made it.

Mary Bensel, the theater's administrative director, took sole charge of showing people to their seats in the orchestra section. A friend of hers worked the balcony. A feeling of solidarity took hold of everyone. The cast performed with more spirit than ever. At the Annenberg Center, where the Philadelphia Drama Guild is presenting The Dining Room, the play's author, A.R.

Gur-ney was among the 200 who had found their way to the matinee performance at the Zeller-bach Theater. Managing director Gregory Poggi was surprised to see him. Gurney had been expected, but he lives in New York and it had been assumed that he had canceled bis plans to come to Philadelphia. Congratulated by Poggi for his pluck, Gurney brushed off the compliment. "I'm from Buffalo, you know," he reminded Poggi.

"This is nothing to me." Buffalo is in snow-belt country, where snow doesn't count until it is measured in feet, not inches. Snow is bad for the box office. The Walnut and the Drama Guild both do the best they can in switching snowbound subscribers to another time. The Walnut says it accommodated more than 200 of its subscribers, and the Drama Guild did the same for 400 of its loyalists. The trouble is that the seats that are filled in such a way are, of course, then unavailable for sale at the box office.

Bensel says the box-office sale for Morning's at Seven was way ahead of the theater's projections. The Shubert Theater was the worst hit by the midweek snowstorm. Athol Fugard's "Master the boys, one of the major dramatic works of our times, had opened the week be fore to a paltry advance sale and no subscription. The first week's engagement had ended more than $30,000 in the red. With good re views out and enthusiastic re sponse spread by word of mouth among theatergoers, the daily business at the box office had climbed from $1,500 a day tc $10,000, raising hopes for breaking even on the three-week engagement.

Then came the snow, and, says general manager Stan Hurwitz, "we went into a freeze." The rate of ticket purchases dropped by more than 50 percent. "The media people here make such a dramatic thing of snow," Hurwitz complained. "In cities like Chicago and Buffalo, snow is expected in the winter, and people go right ahead with their lives." The Living Theater, which outraged some people in the 1960s, was back in old form in the opening of its homecoming engagement in New York last week. During a performance of a theater piece entitled The Archaeology of BAD WEATHER cut short the rising ticket Harold," starring (from left) Zakes Mokae, sales at the Shubert Theater for "Master Evan Handler and Ray Aranha Today's book The West goes selling in Japan FROM BONSAI TO LEWS: WHEN WEST MEETS EAST: An Insider's Surprising Account of How the Japanese Live. By George Fields.

Macmillan. $14.95. Among the current crop of books on Japan, this is one of the more unusual. George Fields describes Japanese society and culture from his viewpoint as a market researcher. What makes his angle of vision even more unusual is his background.

Born tp a Japanese man and an Australian woman, he lived in Japan until he completed his college education before the end of World War II. He then moved to Australia. He returned to live in Japan in 1965, when he was asked to head to Tokyo branch of an American market research company. The Japanese consumer he has studied mainly for non-Japanese multinational companies appears quirky at first but is in fact far from inscrutable. Take baby powder.

It was observed that the Japanese mother is far more indulgent than her American counterpart when it comes to her baby's bottom, changing the diaper three times as often. So it was thought possible to increase the use of baby powder by persuading the Japanese mother to switch from the puffing method she used to the Western-style sprinkle-on method. This proved not to be the case; the restricted space available to the Japanese household made it undesirable to have powder flying all over the place. At one point, General Mills decided that there was a good market for its cake mix in Japan. Although the average Japanese household does not have an oven, it was noted that most had an electric rice cooker.

An advertising campaign was mounted to urge the Japanese housewife to use her rice cooker for baking cakes. The shops were well stocked with the cake mix. But the product did not take off. Why? Rice still plays a central role in Japan's food culture, and the fear that an alien taste or odor might taint the cooker made the housewife hesitate. There are success stories, too.

When Levi Strauss Co. wanted to sell its jeans, the Japanese market was already saturated with domestic imitations. Yet Levi's eminently succeeded by using James Dean in its ads. Dean's image as Cal in East of Eden a young r.an who struggles to convey his love to his father in a nonverbal way and Dean's untimely death appealed to the youth in a country where men of substance are supposed to talk little and die young. Levi's slogan was "Heroes wear Levi's!" From Bonsai lo Levi's is full of such vignettes, but it does more than give tips to a would-be marketer in Japan.

The phenomena selected for discussion are explained in larger settings, some of which are relatively static, some constantly changing. Only someone thoroughly acquainted with both the American and Japanese systems of thinking could make the observations Fields does. This is illustrated by the author's comment on the time-worn question of West vs. East. As Fields puts it, "A New Yorker who eats sushi is no more Easternized than a Tokyo-ite who eats hamburgers is Westernized." Reviewed by Hiroaki Sato, director of the Japan Trade Center.

to the consternation of an opening-night audience. "Tacky," wrote critic Rich of the Living's stratagems. The troupe, which has been abroad for several years, will bring its adaptation of Brecht's Antigone to the Annenberg for one performance, Monday, March 12. Please, boys and girls, no funny business. Michael Allinson, a long-running replacement for Rex Harrison in the original Broadway production of My Fair Lady, portrays Lord Chesterfield in Herbert Ap-pleman's comedy A Perfect Gentleman, which the Walnut Street Theater is co-producing with the Virginia Museum Theater in Sleep, the troupe's co-founder, Julian Beck, approached Frank Rich, the critic for the New York Times, and said, "Are you afraid if I touch you like this?" In Rich's account, Beck then placed his hand between the critic's legs.

Although Rich reported that he was "more bemused than shocked," he did say he began "counting the minutes until I could get home." he Living, as it is known in France, has wasted a lot of time trying to free the world from inhibitions, sexual and legal. Its most publicized success came the night when Richard Schechner, critic and avant-garde director, stood up and stripped to the buff Richmond, Va. The production opens a two-week run at the Walnut Feb. 8 after a weekend of previews. The director is Tom Markus, formerly of the Temple University theater faculty.

The Philadelphia Company's production of True West, by Sam Shepard, is a reunion for director Dugald MacArthur, also of Temple, and actors Dan Strickler and Ken Hardeman. MacArthur directed them in Temple's Theater 3 production of Moby Dick Rehearsed in 1975. That impressive piece traveled to Washington's Kennedy Center for the annual showcasing of outstanding university theater productions. Film: More teenage mayhem in 'Sleepaway Gamp' Review SLEEPAWAY CAMP Produced by Michele Tatosian and Jerry Silva, written and directed by Robert Hiltzik, music by Edward Bilous, and distributed by United Film Distribution running time, 1 hour, 19 mins. Mel Mike Kellin Ricky Jonathan Tiersten Angela Felissa Rose Ronny Paul De Angelo Paul Christopher Collet Judy Karen Fields Parents' guide: (violence, obscenity, nudity) By Rick Lyman Inquirer Movie Critic Dear Mom, How are you? I am fine.

I went to Sleepaway Camp this morning. My editor made me go. She's mean. I had to sit through the whole thing. There were other people in the audience.

I guess their editors made them go, too. Some of them yelled at the screen. "Hey, man, this is traaaaaash," one shouted. "This is like some weird home movie," another screamed. "When we gonna get some action?" another pleaded.

Here is what happened to the people in Sleepaway Camp-. One was stung to death by bees, one was drowned, one was boiled alive, three were hacked to death with a hatchet, one was shot in the throat with an Angela? You sure act weird, Angela. Pretty soon all the people who've been making fun of Angela turn up burned, bloated or hacked into julienne slices. Mel, who runs the place, keeps everything quiet because he's afraid that bad publicity will ruin the camp's reputation. This makes about as much sense as anything else.

You'd think that the big question would be: Who's reponsible for these icky murders? There are plenty of suspects. It could be Ricky, protecting his shy cousin. Or it could be Angela, who's a little too quiet. Or it could be Mel, who looks a little too much like Milton Berle for his own good. Or the big-chested sexpot who torments Angela.

Or the smart-aleck older boys who push Ricky around. Or Angela's sweet boyfriend, Paul. But the even bigger question is: When will we get a daylight scene so I can look at my watch and see how much longer this thing is going to last? I should warn you in case your editor makes you go see it that the people behind Sleepaway Camp seem to think that the climax is a real shocker. A big surprise. If you've been living in Sri Lanka for the last 20 years without television or newspapers, the ending might cause your right eyebrow to lift about one-tenth of an inch.

No more. The only good news is that there seem to be fewer and fewer of these teen-splatter movies, and they seem to make less and less money. That's good news because one more and I'm gonna be going away to summer camp. Either that or the funny farm. across Vine Street before the light changes.

I am told that the average cost of making a movie these days is $12 million. Sleepaway Camp looks as if it cost about, oh, 59 cents. You've heard of the Actors' Studio? The people in this movie appear to have graduated from the Actors' Toolshed. Oh, yeah. I forgot to tell you about the three people who get run over by a motorboat.

Eeeeeek. WHAM! That's how the movie starts. We flash ahead eight years. The lone survivor of that horrible boating accident is Angela, a shy and troubled teenager who goes off to Camp Arawak with her protective cousin, Ricky. Everybody makes fun of Angela.

Nyah, nyah! Why are you so shy. arrow, one was beheaded and one was abused with a hot curling iron. In a flash of originality, one of them was stabbed to death in the shower. Here is what happened to the people in the audience: nothing. IVe had more thrills untangling paper clips.
