Students prepare ‘Annie’ in 24 hours

Maddie Dillen ventured into the theater on Friday night with a mixed look of confusion and excitement as she searched for a few familiar faces.

Having attended only one meeting so far for the Musical Theatre Club, she didn’t know what to expect, but she was ready to find out.

“It’s a kind of organized chaos,” Dillen, a first-year, said during rehearsal. “The directors know what’s supposed to happen, but the actors don’t — we’re sort of herded.”

Pitt’s Musical Theater Club held their fourth annual 24 Hour Musical on Saturday at the Charity Randall Theater in the Stephen Foster Memorial which involves rehearsing and putting on a student-run production in less than one day. With only a few hours of practice, the students entertained a crowd of more than 400 people with a whimsical performance of “Annie.”

Planning for the rushed performance started in May, according to MTC President Braun Taylor, when the club began searching for a musical they could throw together in one day.

Director Ann Amundson and the choreographers held auditions Sept. 3. And each of the cast members received their as-

Stephen Fastuca gallivanted around the tailgate grounds surrounding Beaver Stadium dressed head-to-toe in Penn State attire. He wore blue and white suede dress shoes and Penn State-colored pants, topping his outfit off with a giant Penn State belt buckle on his waist and a Nittany LiSee Annie on page 2 ons fedora on his head.

Aside from showcasing immense support for his team at the Sept. 9 game, Fastuca, a Penn State graduate from 1982, said he supports the Pitt-Penn State rivalry in particular.

“It was the best. It never should have left. This is the first time Pitt has played here since 1999 and that’s a shame. If Pitt wins, it would crush me,” he said before witnessing the 33-14 Penn State victory.

“But, I’d wake up the next morning and

move on because I appreciate it is a great rivalry.”

Penn State’s campus was full of fans flying flags from both schools on Saturday, there to see the Panthers play the Nittany Lions at State College. Tailgates spanned from the parking lots to the Bryce Jordan Center, the home of Penn State basketball.

Institute for Theater Technology, the Performance Collaborative, the Redeye Theater Project, Pitt Tonight and Ruckus, with roughly 70 to 80 people involved. It was the first time that the 24 Hour Musical incorporated a full pit orchestra made up of student musicians. The Pitt improv group Ruckus delivered a 30-minute warm-up act prior to the show.

Then, at 8 p.m., the cast took the stage, scripts in hand and makeshift costumes perfected for the show. Actors such as Sarah Fling as Miss Hannigan and Dustin Butoryak as Oliver Warbucks animated the stage with smooth renditions of their characters and the occasional improvised reaction.

The crowd laughed as Jessica Israel, vice president of Ruckus, brought human traits into her role as Annie’s dog Sandy, dancing along to the score and switching between walking upright and on all fours.

Throughout the production of “Annie,” the crowd reacted with the most enthusiasm at moments when actors forgot lines and props malfunctioned, which forced the performers to improvise. Audience member Charlotte Fallick, a psychology and English major, said her favorite parts were these spontaneously performed moments.

signed roles Friday evening — Dillen received the role of Dog Catcher.

After quickly getting acquainted and doing a complete read-through of a script they hadn’t been able to closely examine until now, the cast and crew split off into groups and got to work. They rehearsed until about 10:30 p.m., headed home for some rest, and returned promptly Saturday morning at 8 a.m.

The rights to the show cost $1,200, the funds for which the Student Organization Resource Center and Student Government Board provided. Beyond copyright finances, the organizers of the 24 Hour Musical needed to operate on a frugal budget.

“We try to have a zero-dollar budget,” Taylor said. “It’s a lot of using what we [already] have.”

From DIY costumes and makeup, to a backdrop recycled and repainted from last year’s production of the “Rocky Horror Picture Show,” the final product was the result of multiple student organizations collaborating to reach a common goal — stretching their musical performance skills and entertaining a variety of viewers.

That final product — the 24 Hour Musical — came together with the help of the United States Junior Sarah Fling delivers an animated portrayal of Miss Hannigan in 24 Hour Musical’s “Annie.” Thomas Yang | STAFF PHOTOGRAPHER

Rivalry, pg. 1 into Beaver Stadium to add to a crowd of 109,898 — the most attendees to see a game at the field since 2009.

In that crowd were alumni from both schools, such as 1988 Pitt grad Brian Knupp. He said the Pitt-Penn State rivalry has lost some of its intensity because of the hiatus between 2000 and 2016 — when scheduling conflicts prevented the teams from playing each other.

“I think [the rivalry] was stronger back then because they played every year, and Pitt was a lot better,” Knupp said. “I grew up loving Tony Dorsett, Dan Marino and the great defenses at Pitt, and Penn State during the Paterno era was always against us and it was great.”

Decked out in Nittany blue and white, Kevin Rodgers, a 1980 Penn State graduate, sat with Knupp in a bar to watch the game. He and Knupp attended the opposing schools during the height of the rival-

pittnews.com

ry, when both schools had premier programs and the matchup was a yearly event.

They became friends later through work.

Pitt and Penn State split the series 2-2 during Rodgers’ time at Penn State between 1977 and 1980. They did the same during Knupp’s time at Pitt between 1985 and 1988. “[The rivalry] was the best back then, but it is still big,” Rogers said.

Finding a place to watch the game on campus proved difficult. Every bar nearby was at standing-room only capacity, many with a line going out the door. One of these bars was the Rathskeller, where Joe Barbuti, a 1999 Penn State grad, frequently watches his alma mater play.

“I’ve been to Rathskeller the last four years for the games, and this is as packed as it’s ever been,” Barbuti said.

After joining the Big Ten conference, Penn State now plays powerhouse teams such as Michigan and Ohio State. But even though he thinks the rivalry is past its peak, Rodgers puts Pitt above Big Ten

contenders on the list of Penn State’s rivals.

“Pitt just matters more,” Rodgers said.

“I hate Big Ten. I don’t care about Iowa, Indiana or Maryland. I’d rather play Pitt or West Virginia.”

Though Penn State head coach James Franklin said the win was no big deal in his post game press conference, fans on both sides seemed to disagree.

Among those who disagreed with Franklin was Tyler Williams, a senior management information systems major at Penn State, who said competition within the Big Ten holds less weight than the Pitt-Penn State rivalry.

“It is above Ohio State level. We haven’t played Pitt in so long and we’re itching for that win,” Williams said before watching the game.

Even though both fanbases clearly support their own teams, Williams feels a certain camaraderie for the Pitt side.

“It’s like a sibling rivalry. We hate each other when we’re playing each other, but

September 11, 2017

when it comes down to it, we like each other more than other schools,” Williams said.

Some undergrads said the hiatus between 2000 and 2016 helped bring life back to the rivalry. Williams agreed, but he said he isn’t looking forward to another break anytime soon.

“The break really added to the feel of this rivalry, but I just really wish they would continue it,” he said.

Williams’ wish won’t be granted, as Pitt and Penn State have no plans to play each other after the current four game series ends in 2019. Penn State sophomore biology major Sonia Donskaya, like Williams, is against putting another pause on the Panthers and Lions’ personal competition.

“We can’t stop playing Pitt. That sucks.

This is a really important rivalry,” Donskaya said. “It’s important to have one team lose and one team win. Rivalries are what make winning and losing beautiful.”

Opinions from the editorial board

CLINTON’S FOCUS

Recognize student debt’s real toll on campus With grades, a fluctuating social life and life after graduation all weighing heavily on our collective conscience, any college student can tell you they’re no stranger to stress.

And according to research released recently by collegiate contracting giant Sodexo, students in the United States have another concern even more worrisome than these — student debt. According to the study — which surveyed undergraduates at universities in the United States, the U.K., China and a few other countries — American students cited financing their education as a significant worry more often than students in any other country.

Among the 502 Chinese students who participated, 81 percent said they would be able to afford a higher education without any assistance from their educational institutes. In America, that number hovered much lower — only 42 percent would be able to afford college without scholarships and other financial aid.

Of course, this comes as little surprise to American undergraduate students. Here at Pitt, students have staged repeated demonstrations to voice their opposition to increases in the cost of a college education. But if you were to listen only to our society’s leadership, you might have no idea that rising costs were such a significant problem in the United States.

At a town hall two weeks ago, Sen. Pat Toomey, R-Pa., turned a question about how to approach the student loan debt problem into an answer about “school choice” and privatization of public education. Toomey’s voting record in the Senate is equally denialist about the cost problem in higher education — in 2013, the senator voted against a bill that would have reduced interest rates on federal loans for undergraduates.

Like students, the Pitt administration also

pittnews.com

seems concerned about potential rising cost.

Pitt promoted a campaign last week called “With Pitt, PA Wins,” with Chancellor Patrick Gallagher tweeting in support of “reminding state lawmakers of Pitt’s immeasurable value to PA.” Gallagher also co-authored an op-ed in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette last week with the same theme.

The context of this reminder is the current dispute in the commonwealth’s legislature over Pennsylvania’s spending plan for the upcoming fiscal year. The current uncertainty of the state budget could jeopardize Pitt’s funding from Pennsylvania.

A state funding interruption would result in higher tuition — hurting students much more than it would higher management. And given how bad the state of undergraduate student finances already is, it could hurt a lot.

In order to face both the menace of budget cuts from the Commonwealth and the everincreasing pressure of financial demands on students, universities like Pitt should focus on the well-being of the students they currently educate just as much as they focus on recruiting more students. In an era when publicly funded universities are spending more and more on on-campus construction in order to compete for students, administrators should re-focus on serving the students they already have by controlling costs.

Here at Pitt, tuition increases passed by the Board of Trustees over the summer accompanied a 4.5 percent operating budget and a more than doubling of the University’s capital budget for new construction.

Students will always be willing to put up with second-rate facilities. There’s a real crisis in student loan debt today, and the way to solve that at Pitt is to recognize students’ financial woes, not simply to build more and more.

ON THE PAST HURTS

DEMOCRATS

Garrett Aguilar | STAFF ILLUSTRATOR

Ben Sheppard

For The Pitt News Letting go of the past can be difficult.

And no one, it seems, knows that better than Hillary Clinton.

Last year’s Democratic presidential candidate still appears to be reeling from her stinging defeat by Donald Trump. In her new book, “What Happened” — set to hit bookshelves Tuesday — Clinton lays much of the blame for her loss at the feet of others. And one of the biggest targets to receive Clinton’s scorn is her former Democratic primary rival, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders.

Clinton says that Sanders’ presence in last year’s primaries made her race more difficult and argues that he paved the way for Trump’s “Crooked Hillary” campaign.

September 11, 2017

“[Sanders] had to resort to innuendo and impugning my character,” Clinton wrote in a pre-released excerpt of her book, “[because we] agreed on so much.”

Further, Clinton claims Sanders isn’t proud to be a Democrat. But even if that’s true, his message galvanized youth voters, encouraging many to register as Democrats. The Democratic Party has unquestionably benefited from Sanders’ presence.

Success in politics depends on building coalitions with others, and attacking an opponent from a past election isn’t productive in working toward that goal.

Clinton’s own campaign marketed slogans expressing positivity, compromise and togetherness — her campaign slogan emphasized that America is “Stronger Together.”

See Sheppard on page 4

Sheppard, pg. 3 However, in dwelling on the past and possibly dividing Democrats, Clinton — as a representative of the party establishment — now risks alienating voters in pivotal swing states.

Democratic politicians and activists across the spectrum are frustrated by the comments leaked from Clinton’s upcoming memoir. Red-state moderates such as Sen. Claire McCaskill of Missouri responded to Clinton’s comments dismissively, refusing to even engage on the topic of the memoir at all.

Progressives are frustrated with Clinton, too. New York political strategist Jonathan Tasini, who challenged Clinton for her Senate seat in 2006, attacked her — in an email to Politico, the Sanders supporter called the book “a sad, petty ‘It’s Everyone Else’s Fault,’ book.”

Even Sanders himself responded to Clinton’s criticism. He stressed the Democratic Party must move forwards instead of focusing on the election loss.

“We have enormous problems facing us, and I think it’s a little bit silly to keep talking about 2016,” Sanders told Stephen Colbert on the Late Show earlier this month.

While all this intraparty drama is going on, it’s important to remember the other side of the political aisle, where Republicans continue to increase their political power. The GOP holds majorities in both houses of Congress, and it’s primed to expand its Senate majority in 2018, as 10 Democratic incumbents are running in states Trump won. Additionally, at the state level, Republicans control 32 state legislatures and hold 33 gubernatorial seats.

This dominance gives Republicans the ability to enact policy counter to the interests of both mainstream Democrats like Clinton and progressives like Sanders.

This alone should be enough to encourage Democrats to seek a greater, more unified base of voters.

Sanders generated tremendous enthusiasm for his policies within the Democratic Party and marketed that into an incredible presence in the Democratic primaries. He managed to pose a serious challenge to Clinton, a Goliath of American politics.

In spite of his second-place finish, Sanders captured more than 13 million votes over

pittnews.com

September 11, 2017

the course of the primaries.

But despite her rival’s widespread support among Democrats, Clinton’s writing repeatedly question Sanders’ devotion to the Democratic Party — and by extension, his supporters’.

“He didn’t get into the race to make sure a Democrat won the White House,” she claims in the book. “He got in to disrupt the Democratic Party.”

Regardless of Sanders’ motivations, the primaries were brutal for both Clinton and Sanders. Negative campaigning is a disappointingly prominent feature in all politics, and Clinton calling Sanders out for not being invested “enough” in the party is nonsensical.

Sanders remained active in Democratic Party politics during the general election.

He endorsed Clinton at the Democratic National Convention and was a prominent surrogate for Clinton, stressing unity against Trump.

Concerning for Democrats is that more than one in 10 Sanders primary voters voted for Trump in the general election, according to the data from the Cooperative Congressional Election Study. Imagine how many more Sanders voters might have crossed party lines if Sanders hadn’t given his support to Clinton.

Despite her loss, Clinton remains a major figure in the Democratic Party. And rehashing old grudges will accomplish nothing other than alienating potential voters who could play a pivotal role for Democrats in future elections.

At a time like this, her former campaign slogan “Stronger Together” could not be more relevant. But based on her memoir, it seems Clinton should have taken a look at her old campaign banners more often.

Sports DINUCCI DESERVES STARTING SLOT

See online: Weekend sports recaps Backup quarterback Ben DiNucci motions to his offense. .

Anna Bongardino | ASSISTANT VISUAL EDITOR

NITTANY LIONS POUNCE ON PANTHERS, 33-14

Kevin Bertha

Ryan Zimba

Max Browne has started two games for the Pitt Panthers in his career, and he shouldn’t start a third.

Unfortunately, head coach Pat Narduzzi doesn’t share this sentiment — yet. When asked if Browne was still the starter after Saturday’s performance against Penn State, Narduzzi responded with a curt “Yes.” Ben DiNucci should start as quarterback for the Panthers from here on out.

With Browne’s limitations, DiNucci simply works better for Pitt’s offense. If Browne remains the starter after the Penn State game, this could be a long — and disappointing — season for Pitt fans.

The USC transfer displayed two main issues in his first two games at Pitt — inaccurate throws and lack of mobility, insurmountable issues for a starting quarterback.

When faced with pressure, the redshirt senior often rushes into a bad throw or takes a sack. Browne isn’t a mobile quarterback and doesn’t move in the pocket very well. Without a perfectly clean pocket to throw downfield, he struggled against Penn State — and college quarterbacks often aren’t given that much time to throw to begin with.

Take the second interception during Saturday’s game for example. There was pressure on Browne, and he panicked, throwing a rushed pass 10 yards over Jester Weah’s head and into the chest of Penn State safety Troy Apke.

In addition, Browne has issues even when he does get time to throw downfield.

His throws often sail and miss receivers badly. Similar to rushing under pressure, See Bertha on page 6

Just like Pitt did last year at home, the Nittany Lions jumped out to an early lead, but the Panthers couldn’t catch up — eventually falling 33-14 during Saturday’s rivalry game.

Despite piling up more yards than the Nittany Lions (2-0) at Beaver Stadium, Penn State’s red zone defense stifled the Panthers (1-1). Penn State stopped Pitt inside the 20-yard line three times on the day, forcing them to settle for field goals instead of touchdowns.

“They were better than we were today,” Pitt head coach Pat Narduzzi said. “We have to go back and get to the fundamentals. We have to protect the quarterback, we can’t turn the ball over. I mean, you’re not going to beat a top-10 team [if you do that].”

The Nittany Lions kicked off to begin the game, but they quickly gained possession after intercepting redshirt senior quarterback Max Browne on his second pass of the day.

“That first drive, it was a big mistake by me,” Browne said. “That doesn’t help anything at all.

That doesn’t help our offense or defense.”

Penn State took over at Pitt’s 8-yard line and scored on their first play — a pass to senior tight end Mike Gesicki — to take a 7-0 lead just 2:07 into the game.

After back-to-back punts, the Panthers took over at their own 9-yard line. On second down from the 16, Browne fired downfield, connecting with redshirt junior wide receiver Rafael Araujo-Lopes to move to the 38. The drive stalled, though, forcing the Panthers to bring on redshirt senior punter Ryan Winslow.

Facing a third down near midfield, Penn State quarterback Trace McSorley found a hole in the Panthers’ defense and ran all the way to their 18.

Three plays later, Gesicki scored with his second touchdown pass of the day, putting his team up See Recap on page 6

would bring much-needed experience and quarterback talent to the Panthers. Browne seemed to give Pitt the best chance to win this year. Clearly that is no longer the case.

On the other hand, DiNucci can play this season and two more for the Panthers.

In his action against Penn State, he rushed for a touchdown and marched Pitt down the field against one of the best defenses in college football.

It’s evident DiNucci gives Pitt the best chance to win at the moment, but this is a situation Pitt has been in before.

Redshirt junior quarterback Chad Voytik went into the 2015 season as Pitt’s starter at the position. Voytik turned in a dismal performance against FCS squad Youngstown State in Pitt’s opener, throwing for only 72 yards and one touchdown along with an interception.

Voytik continued to struggle in the first quarter versus lowly Akron the next week. Nathan Peterman promptly relieved him and became a successful starter at Pitt for the next two seasons.

DiNucci could find himself in a similar situation. The onus is now on Narduzzi to make DiNucci the starter, not only to win games now, but in the future as well.

Recap, pg. 5 14-0.

Browne and the Panthers had some success on their next possession, but the unit came up empty, punting it back and giving the Nittany Lions the ball at their own 11.

After Penn State punted back, Pitt had the ball inside their own 20. Again, Browne overthrew, resulting in his second interception of the game at the Penn State 41.

The Panther defense forced another punt with a third-down sack by redshirt junior defensive lineman Dewayne Hendrix, taking over at Pitt’s 13. Even though the Panthers moved down the field, they didn’t get into the end zone and brought redshirt freshman Alex Kessman in to kick a field goal with 1:12 to go. The half ended with the score at 14-3.

The second half opened with Penn State at its 25 and quickly moved past midfield on consecutive runs by junior running back Saquon Barkley. Even though Pitt’s defense forced a punt, its offense couldn’t move the ball and Penn State regained possession.

his inaccuracy also led to a pick this Saturday.

During the Panthers’ first drive against the Nittany Lions, Browne dropped back, not facing much pressure. He simply overthrew Quadree Henderson by about eight yards and Penn State cornerback Grant Haley came up with the interception.

Unlike Browne, DiNucci moves in the pocket well, and can even scramble for first downs when plays break down. In his limited time against Penn State, DiNucci went five for nine for 49 yards and led the Panthers on one of their best drives in the game.

The Panthers could add a few more wrinkles to their offensive scheme with DiNucci leading the plays. “[DiNucci] gives a spark because he can run — you see him scramble around,” Narduzzi said.

Pitt tried to run the option — where the quarterback either runs the ball or pitches it to the running back — a few times with Browne against Penn State, to no avail.

Browne’s not a running threat by any means. The 6-foot-5 quarterback stands

tall in the pocket but struggles to move his long legs in and outside of the tackle box. Penn State was able to focus on the running back when Pitt tried to run option plays, knowing Browne would almost always pitch the ball instead of keeping it himself.

DiNucci’s speed would force defenses to play Pitt more honestly, which would open up different opportunities in the play-action pass game and the running game. DiNucci gave Pitt fans a small taste of what he could do when he dashed around the left end — making a defender miss — for a three-yard score against Penn State.

The redshirt sophomore from Wexford also has more to gain from game experience than Browne does given that he has a chance to become Pitt’s quarterback in the future.

Browne is a graduate transfer from USC who came to Pitt to improve his draft stock for the NFL. Unfortunately for Browne, his dismal performances against Youngstown State and Penn State now make his draft stock virtually nonexistent.

Pitt looked to benefit from Browne’s transfer, too. Narduzzi felt that Browne
