MR. LEE SIMONSON '09 TO SPEAK

Mr. Lee Simonson. '09 will speak at the 47 Workshop meeting tomorrow night at 8 o'clock in Sever 11. His subject will be "The Plastic Stage and Recent Stage Design". All members of the University and Radcliffe are cordially invited.

Mr. Simonson was prominent as a writer while in college, but after graduation, he went to Europe to study painting for which he had already shown considerable talent. Upon his return he designed scenery for the Washington Square Players in New York, until that company broke up on account of the war.

Since then, Mr. Simonson has been connected with the Theatre Guild, which grew out of the Washington Square Players. He is at present scenic artist and one of the directors of that organization. Some of his greatest successes have been "The Faithful," "lphigenia in Taurus," "The Sea Gull," and more recently, "Liliom."
