Eager Audience Sees
'Romeo and
At Ashland
An eager audience nearly
filled the Elizabethan theater
at Ashland Friday night at the
third Shakespearean Festival
production of the season, ''Ro
meo and Juliet."
The production, one of the
world's most beloved dramas of
romance and tragedy, held the
blanket-wrapped audience nearly
spellbound throughout the cold,
starlit evening.
Ted van Griethuysen of Hous
ton, Tex., and Rosalyn Newport,
Carnegie Tech student, both
looked and acted their parts as
Romeo and Juliet with a strik
ing degree of perfection. Both
lead characters have had con
siderable theater experience,
which combined with obvious
talent, makes them perfect se
lections for the roles.
committee.iCom,nd"r JolL, , v
iuenur Alien x leicner, wno
also appeared as Montague, did
a commendable job in casting
Romeo and Juliet as well as the
others in the tragedy.
One of the best received char
acters in last night's performance
was Alfce Lauterer in the part of
Juliet's nurse. Miss Lauterer, a
newcomer to the festival and
former teacher and director of

liHllllliilliWI
Juliet'
Festival
drama at Mills college, seemed
to reach every member of the
audience with her heart-warming
performance. It seems doubtful
that even Shakespeare ' would
have thought the part could conT
tain such sparkle and polish.
The role of another beloved
character, quick-witted Mercutio,
was carried out in admirable
style by David O'Brien. A Stan
ford university student from
Glencoe,- 111.,-O'Brien accented
humor and personality Shake
speare' wrote into the part. Mer
cutio's untimely death from the
rapier of . Tybalt seemed to
arouse more- than the usual
amount of audiepce sympathy
because of O'Brien's winning
performance.
Sterling Performance
Friar Laurence (B. I d e n
Payne) also gave a sterling per
formance as did Montague (Al
len Fletcher) his lady (Doris
Viola), Capulet (James Parker),
his lady (Irene G. Baird). Paris
(Michael F. Kasdan), Tybalt (Wil
liam Oyler) and Capulet's three
servants. Sampson. Gregory and
Peter (Steve Pavlisin, Richard
Cavette and Philip Jacobus).
James Grant Kahlo, appearing
as the elderly cousin of Capulet,
did a fine job in an important
lesser part. He supplied essen
tial atmosphere by his presence,
but did not overplay the part to
the detraction of other major
characters.
Also deserving "pats on the
back" were other members of the
cast, Escalus (Richard Graham),
Benvolio (Eberle Thpmas), Bal
thasar (Jack J. Swanson), Abra
ham and Friar John (Hugh Wil
son), Apothecary (Brad Curtis),
the two pages (Michael Cotton
and Rudolf E. Vest Jr.), musi
cians (Art Silva, Vest, Jerry Hol
loway and Lee Haring), guards
and watchmen (Curtis, Haring
and Holloway) and citizens and
maskers (Joan Kugell, Nancy
Pickhardt, Ann Brennen. Susan
L. Shively, Silva and Wilson).
Costuming, Props
Make-up. costuming and props
were excellent. Only two factors
seemed to detract from the pro
duction. The most serious ele
ment of detraction was the re
grettable amount of noise, both
from moving props and back
stage voices, immediately prior
to the last scene. Also, at a few
brief intervals the audience had
some difficulty in hearing two or
three of the players.
Last night the festival group
presented "Cymbeline" and to
night will present the second
performance of "Richard III."
Curtain time is 8:30 p.m. Unless
night temperature takes a sud
den climb, it is . recommended
that theater-goers bring along
blankets or warm wraps to ward
off the night chill. R.J.B.
