Dorothy Pruitt, a member of the festival acting group since 1934 has stepped out of a speaking role and is hand ling the Job of assistant direc torship. Little glory and plenty of grief is the reward for those en gaged in "behind-the-scenes" ac tivity of a modern stage play. Much more so this year as Shakespeare is being stream lined and modernized and pro duction heads are striving for a more sprightly tempo with out obliterating the essence of his original quality. Mr j. Pruitt has been given the task of re-writing and re vising the comedy "Much Ado About Nothing" and drama lov ers who have seen pre-vuea pf the new script are lauding the results. The play itself has tak en on the appearance of a mod ern musical comedy, complete with original music, dance se quences and singing. The ori ginal quality however, is still thoroughly Shakespeare and production heads believe the re vision will bring more response than the primary script. A veteran Shakespearean ac tress. Mrs. Pruitt will be re membered for her work in "Twelfth Night" as "Olivia"; "Ophelia", in "Hamlet"; and "Biancha" in 'The Taming of the Shrew." She has also been seen as Alice, In "You Can't Take It With You", presented by com munity players at the Southern Oregon College of Education; "Annie" in "Farewell Supper and "Janet Leeson in "Without Romance".
