"The Octopus," Play by K. U. Graduate, to Be Staged in K. C.
Presentation Will Be Mada at Kansas City Theater March 5-11
William B. Anthony, A.B. 29, b in Lawrence recently making preparation for the presentation of his play, "The Oriental", which is to be given the week of March 1, at the Kansas City theater.
Mr. Anthony began work on the phy while a student in Professor Crafton's class in play writing. With the aid of his sister he is directing the production, which will serve of 10 persons. The play itself has Lawrence and the near vicinity as the background. The theme of the play is that a boy becomes a director.
In the foreword of the play, the author has summed up its real purpose in the following words, "According to Bernard Shaw, that kind of comedy which is absolutely true to entertainment but is not only an entertainment but also a form of contemporary morals, is a tragic-comedy. This is the category into which the play naturally falls. It is the true story in all essential forms," and struggles to save their son from the closing tortures of the drug habit.
"Most of the characters are per traits of living people and the essenl elements of the struggle closel paralleled the struggle through which human beings have to believe that any play true to the lf of the common people, that is th
overage every day American citizen,
must be a tragi-comedy closely bordering on the melodrama.
When asked if the play ended with a tragic note Mr. Anthony said, "No; there is a way of hope in the context of the play. It is a tragic comedy."
A community cast composed of persons who have had previous stage experiences will characterize the performances being presented for an entire week beginning March 14. "If it is a success in Kansas City, it will be followed up by Lawrence," Mr. Anthony said.
The author, while in Lawrence, is considering an attempt to obtain a statement from the mother of the boy about whom the play was written which will be used to create interest and education from an educational standpoint.
