HDC to Present T. S. Eliot Play

T. S. Eliot's "Murder in the Cathedral" will open as the Harvard Dramatic Club's third production of the year in Sanders Theatre, Feb. 25. They play will run through Feb. 27 and March 3-6, with matinees on both the Saturdays.

Thomas V. Gaydos will play the lead role of Archbishop Thomas Becket. Gaydoes also played the lead in the last H.D.C. production, Pirandello's "Henry IV", last November. Supporting him will be Robert S. Schwartz, Louis Begley, John N. Docker, and Andre W. Gregory.

This verse play centers around the murder of Becket and the spiritual crises which he went through before his death.

The cast began its production work before the Christmas vacation, but started its intensive rehearsal only at the beginning of this week.

The club plans one more production late in April, its fourth of the year. This is the first time in the history of the club that it ha staged four major productions.
