UT Play Success By DENNIS DELAHUNT Reviewer The Friday evening world pre mier of “One World at a Time” must be considered a tremendous success for writer Richard F. Stockton, and the University The ater. “One World at a Time” por trays the life of Robert Ingersoll, an important 19th century ag nostic. Ingersoll was torn be tween his strong religious convic tions and the conflicts resulting from his need to express these convictions. He lived in a pe riod when religion played an im portant part in the lives of ev eryone, a period when heretics were not to be tolerated. Embittered Ingersoll Ingersoll saw his views in jure his minister father, affect his law practice, and finally ruin his chances for the governorship of Illinois. Embittered, he spoke out with increasing vigor and witnessed the political ruin of his brother and the mental an guish of his beloved wife. Stockton has not only created a powerful drama, but also a hu morous, extremely entertaining I contribution to the contemporary theatre: “Have a cigar, Judge. A L SENATOR-AT-LARGE c A R T E R ' It’s my slogan written on the lid. 1 Let’s smoke in this world and not the next.” Farley Exceptional Donald Farley, a Ph.D. candi date in English and instructor of composition and literature at the ; University, did an exceptionally outstanding job in portraying In gorsoll. Never has this writer witnessed an actor develop a character with the depth and skill that Farley displayed. Farley was ably supported by 1 Beverly Waldo, who portrayed Eva, Robert Ingersoll's wife; I Robert Waldo who played Ebon Ingersoll, his brother; and Alex ander Duncan who portrayed the Rev. John Ingersoll, his father. The sets, makeup, and costumes were also excellent and should I be commended. “One World at a Time” will continue to run through Satur day, and should be included in the entertainment plans of every one.
