Festival Board Adds One Day To 1956 Season Ashland For the first time since its beginning, the Oregon Shakespeare festival will run more than 31 days this year. An extra day is being added to allow for eight performances of Romeo and Juliet, which is expected to be the season's most popular play. The season begins on August 1, as usual, and continues through Saturday, September 1. The closing performance will be Romeo and Juliet. This play, Richard III, and Love's Labour's Lost, all will have eight per formances during the season; Cymbeline will have six, and the season's fifth play, Titus An dronicus, will be presented twice. "With the traditional popular ity, of Romeo and Juliet, the ad dition of an extra day to the season, and the fact that the last performance is on Saturday, we look forward to an unusually exciting closing night," William Patton, general manager of the festival, said. Closing night is traditionally one of the most memorable events in the season. After the regular performance of the play, the entire company appears on the stage in costume, lighted candles are passed to them, and they circle the audience carry ing the candles and singing the popular English folk song, "Greensleeves." It is hoped that this extra day may set the trend towards a yearly lengthening of the festi val season.
