Megs Hooker of the Intiman

Mrs Booker is dissatisfied
with the usual treatment of
Hedda as a suburban I^idy
Macbeth “ Hedda was raised in
the man's world of her father,
General Gabier She’s a strong
young woman who is 15 years old
inside. She searches for self-
expression through the men in
her life, bu, when that fails, she
finds it in her suicide,” Mrs
Booker says
William Saroyan’s Pulitzer
Prize winning play, “Time of

saloon in the 1930 s, the play has

its bizarre characterizations and
its ticautiful soul “ This play is
William Saroyans love affair
