Students Direct Scenes For Coming Showcases
The TOWN CRIER
By Joyce Outshoorn
Ten students in the advanced directing class in speech and drama will be directing short scenes from plays in the Experimental Theatre in the next two weeks.
The first two scenes will be presented at 4:30 Wednesday in the Experimental Theatre. Burt Eikleberry, Coal Hill, Ark., graduate student, will be directing a scene from "Zooey," by J. D. Salinger. Eikleberry has written the adaptation from the book himself.
FOR THESE SCENES, costumes and scenery are being kept to a minimum, partly due to the lack of time. As one of the students said, "There will be just enough scenery and costume to give the spectator the idea and atmosphere of the scene." Sound and light effects will also be used.
Following each of the Theatre Showcase scenes is a discussion. After the scene has been performed, the audience, cast, director and Prof. Goff will discuss and critique what they have seen.
AFTER THIS," a scene from "The Glass Menagerie," by Tennessee Williams will be performed. The director is Robert Farrell, Elgin, Ill., graduate student.
On Friday scenes from "A Man of All Seasons," by Robert Bolt and "Our Town," by Thornton Wilder will be performed. Curtain time is 4:30 and directors are Bob Smylek,
Each of the students enrolled in the course is allowed to choose a short scene or two lasting about 15 minutes from any play he likes. After open tryouts, which were held in February, and at which the student directors chose their casts, the rehearsals were started.
These scenes, known as "Theatre Showcase," form part of the course work done by the students, which is taught by Lewin Goff, professor of speech and drama, and also director of the University Theatre.
