A, Miss Joyce Womack; will play the part of the boy king in to night's production of "Henry VI" in too Shakespearean festi val shell In Ashland. Misa Wo mack, drama student at Carne gie institute in Pittsburgh, has been understudying the role and was ready to step into the part when Gerald Gardner became ill. Young Actress To Play Role Of Boy Tonight Ashland Joyce Womack, young Carnegie institute drama student who has won praise for her portrayal of Portia and Bianca in plays in the Shake rpearean festival this season, goes on tonight in a role she probably never expected to play. Miss Womack will play a boy's role that of young King Hen rv in the festival's "Henry VI, Part 1." James Sandoe, the play's di rector, seriously considered Miss Womack for the role of the boy king during auditions, but fi nally asked her to understudy the role. When Gerald Gardner was forced to drop out of the cat because of illness, she im mediately stepped into the part. Director Sandoe said that he felt Tier role of Portia would help her in playing "Henry VI," since her court-room scene in "Merchant of Venice" demands that the charming heroine of the play masquerade as a young man. He also observed that wo men had played men's roles be fore in festival productions, re versing the Elizabethan practice of using men even in women's roles. The part that Miss Wdmack is now playing, Sandoe said, is that of a boy-king a minor with better judgement than most of his elders, who strives sensi bly but ineffectually to resolve the conflicts within his king dom.
