"Ralegh in Guiana," Assistant Professor Wendell's chronicle play in two scenes, will be presented in Sanders Theatre by invitation of the English Department at 8.30 this evening.
The action of the play takes place in the cabin of Sir Walter Ralegh's ship "Destiny," off the month of the Orinoco in the winter of 1617-18, during the voyage to discover gold in Guiana, on the success of which Ralegh's life depended.
The characters will be represented as follows:
Sir Walter Ralegh, Barrett Wendell '77.
Young Ralegh, Jacob Wendell, Jr., '91.
Captain Keymis, Arthur Astor Carey '79.
Captain Potwhele, Thomas Russell Sullivan.
Don Antonio de Berreo, Lorin F. Deland.
Boatswain, Charles Ayer Clough.
Several undergraduates will serve as gentlemen of Sir Walter Ralegh's company and a number as the Elizabethan audience of the play.
