TWO MZSrOHD (OHZOON) MAIL TRIBUKE Thursday. July 14, 1ISS Heyday Sunday First Event Of Shakespearean Festival Ashland The 1955 Oregon Shakespearean festival gets under way here Sunday with the first official event of the season, the annual Bard's Heyday. Sponsored by Tudor guild, festival auxiliary organization, all proceeds from Heyday go to the actors scholarship fund. Traditionally held on an estate in the Rogue River valley. Hey day will take place in the festi val theater for the first time this year. Features of the afternoons activities will be Elizabethan games, a buffet supper, and tours backstage in the theater. Costumiers In the costume room visitors will see head costumier, Douglas Russell, Florida State university, and his assistants, Agnes David, University of Texas, and Inge Schmidt,- Stanford university, at work on the season s costumes. Helping out in the costume room are other company members and townspeople. All of the costumes this year were designed by Mr. Russell, just returned from a year of study at Stratford-on- Avon, except for Miss David's designs for "Timon of Athens." Mr. Russell brought back from England more than 200 yards of material for the costumes, in cluding felts, metallic cloth, and wools, the latter' to be used for "Macbeth." x As usual, about half of the costumes this year will be new, and half remodels of old cos tumes. .The same costume is neve used twice without seve ral changes, and each year's shows present a new trend in de sign and execution. Russell esti mates that by the end of the sea son the festival wardrobe, begun from scratch in 1948 after the theater burned, will have more than 2000 costumes. Problems The costume room has a vari ety of unique problems to deal with this year, as usual. The cos tumes for "Timon" must be basic ally ' Elizabethan with a sug gestion of classic drapery; and an illusion of unreality must be created 'for "A -Midsummer Night's Dream.",In spite of other problems, however, costume peo ple agree that the most preplex ing one yet is the actor who can wear none of the old helmets, the most difficult costume article to make, because his head has five corners instead of the tradition al four. The festival season opens on August 1 with "JJream," and con tinues throughout the month pre senting four plays in rotation nightly, with special perform ances of "Timon" Aug. 23 and 29. Other scheduled plays are "Mac beth," "All's Well That Ends Well," and "Henry VI, part 3." Also scheduled are free concerts of Elizabethan music on the four Sundays in August.
