H.T.G. Play Opens Tonight

DAVID J. BOWEN '51, as Rubashov, whispers to Prisoner 402, acted by CHARLES C. HUMPSTONE '53, in a scene from "Darkness at Noon." The Harvard Theatre Group production opens tonight in Sanders Theatre for a run ending on Saturday.

Sidney Kingsley's drama of a discarded Communist official recently won the New York drama critics' award as the best play of the year. It is based on Arthur Koestler's novel of the same name.

Playwright Kingsley released the play for amateur production recently because of its timely theme.
