Theodore Spencer's "Inquest" To Be Produced by Workshop

"Inquest," a radio play in verse by Theodore Spencer, Assistant Professor of English, will be the first production of the newly formed Harvard Radio Workshop, which is now equipping a studio in 42 Holyoke House.

Mr. Spencer's play, unusual in plot, and construction, deals with an investigation into the lives of long-dead citizens by the government of the United States. It will employ music partially synchronized with the meter of the verse, and a chorus in the background.

There are also speeches by the voices of portraits on the wall.
