Brilliant Season Recorded
Oregon's sixth annual Shakea-
pearean Festival is history, as
far as the dramatic world Is
concerned, but not in the hearts
and minds of southern Oregon.
The plucky spirit which has
prompted young thespians from
ail parts of the country to labor
under two months of Intensive
summer stock work, has carried
this unique venture to new
heights this year. The 1940 sea
son closed last night in Ash
land's civic Elizabethan theatre
with the final showing of "As
You Like It," but the memory
of this season will long remain.
The ghost of 'William Shakes
peare last night saw his play
done in modern form, both liter
ally and materially. Costumes
were of modern attire, necessi
tated as a result of the disastrous
fire which early Thursday morn
ing swept through the back stage
storage and costuming depart
ments and destroyed nearly 85
per cent of authentically repro
duced Elizabethan raiment. Flan
nel shirts, splashed with bright
colors, logging boots, "tin
breeches, and bettered felt hats
I provided a severe contract to
time of the "good Queen Bess.
Notwithstanding the fact that
production heads have achieved
the so-called impossible and re
built three entire shows in as
many days, the quality of the
performances has not been damp
ened by the material losses. If
anything, patrons found a new
spirit. Dramatic sequences were
pitched to a higher degree, com
edy scenes were more receptive
and the invisible cloak of co
operation which has aided in the
