They'll Do It Every JiXvs5?ISr aaar hom have , - " ' $$3 .voueoTjusT V Impressive Of Shakespeare's 'Henry V It is certainly nothing new to say that Shakespeare's writings are for all time. However, one cannot but reiterate this after such a play as "The Life of King Henry V." This history was given an impressive performance Saturday night in Ashland, to a standing-room-only au dience, bringing to a close the first four-play cycle of the 23rd annual season which op ened Wednesday night. If anyone needs proof that humans are frail creatures, and that history repeats itself, let him go to a performance of "Henry V." In this play we see mcn-in this instance high churchmen-urge the head of state into a war in an effort to divert him from a crisis at home, a time-honored de vice, i We see a monarch at first unwilling to go to war be cause he realizes how awful the consequences will be, but at length persuaded by his advisor. We see the same king lose his temper, just like an ordinary man, and become en raged over a trifle and realize anew that sometimes trifling acts may have fearful con sequences. We see supposedly loyal countrymen turn treasonous quickly and even more quick ly proclaim how foolish they were and beg forgiveness .when they are caught. Shown War Useless As the play progresses, we are shown that war is indeed not only terrible but useless and wasteful as well and we see the head of a state and government come to realize how heavy are his burdens and wish that he might "sleep as soundly as the wretched slave." Stacy Keach, already high ly praised for his acting in "Romeo and Juliet" and "Love's Labour's Lost," scor ed another triump Saturday night. This young man gives a highly effective performance as King Henry V and made one scene - that of the king visiting his weary soldiers around their camp fires - a memorable one. His reading of the lines in this scene, especially the por tion beginning "O God of battles! Steel my soldiers' hearts; Possess them not with fear ..." is done with great feeling and yet with admir able taste and restraint. -Scholars and Shakespeare- The Mark Antony's Fabulous CROWN ROOM Serving the Finest Food!

I m g m Tffiffifla5 I f JV F M he most S2 (0) Time Performance Given an authorities differ over the kind of a king the playwright intended to portray. Some be lieve that Shakespeare meant Henry V to be a sober, thoughtful man concerned over his kingdom, his subjects and his soldiers. Governed By Policy Director Jerry Turner in his notes says that Henry is "governed more by policy than temperament, more by cold calculation than bright courage." If he meant Stacy Keach to produce this inter pretation, this reviewer be lieves that he failed. At any rate, those who en joy seeing an Elizabethan king played with intelligence, warmth and commanding presence, should see this pro duction. Richard Graham reads the lines of the chorus in this play, and does them exceed ingly well. The narration aids the audience greatly and it is good to have these connect ing portions presented so well. Indeed, the audience should listen not only because the narration carries the trend of the plot, but should heed the admonition "Work, work your thoughts." This play is one in which it is helpful if the listener "works his thoughts." Relieves Seriousness That master craftsman, Shakespeare, always relieves his seriousness with comeay, and in "Henry V" we have again those rogues and ras cals, Pistol, Baraoipn ana Nvm. as well as the soldiers Gower and Fluellen, to make the listeners laugh. Charles Taylor gives a sprightly performance as Pis tol, particularly in the leek- eating scene, and Edward S. Brubaker plays Badoiph witn gusto. Stanley Elberson and James Smith make a good comedy pair as Gower and Fluellen; Smith is particular ly effective. The actors cast as French men are not given as much opportunity to display drama tic talent in this play as are the Englishmen. However, Daniel J. Hoppe gives a good performance as the vacillat ing Charles VI of France and Earl Boen plays the uaupnin Lewis, with considerable flair. It is commonly known that many Frenchmen have little use for the English, even to day, and it must have been true in Shakaspeare's time. f vMTiiin I 'iim " . . 1 1 By Jimmy Hatlo At any rate, Director Turner has his Frenchmen and wom en show thinly veiled con tempt for the English, even in surrender. Women's roles are insignif icant in "Henry V." Elizabeth Huddle, who has fine roles in other plays this season, is cast as the queen of France, buzanne d Autremont is a sweet and mild Katherine, daughter of Charles and Isa bel, and K. Cecil Berry plays the lady attending Katherine. In the courting scene between King Henry and Katherine, she is quite outshone by Keach, who practically glit ters in his handsome white costume. One wonders as the play (this is one which could cer tainly be cut to advantage, were it not against the policy of the festival) draws to a close, over the folly of man kind. Why go to war over France when the uniting of the countries was so easily accomplished by the simple device of having the King of England marry the daughter of the Kjng of France? Love is more effective than hate. O.S. Births ROWE - To Dr. and Mrs. L. L., 100 North Third St., Central Point, July 26, 1963, a boy, 8'2 pounds, at Crater Osteopathic hospital.
