To the Editors of The CRIMSON:
In the morning CRIMSON there appears what I suppose is intended to be a review of the production of "Alcestis" by the Adams House players. The language of this review is so obscure I am afraid I do not understand it except to gather that the reviewer chose to dislike everything about the production. Given the extraordinary difficulties of producing any Greek play, and given also the handicap of producing any play at the Christmas season, may I say that on one spectator, at least, the production of "Alcestis" had an effect of considerable beauty and that, considering the attentiveness of the audience on the first night, I think this effect must have extended to most of the spectators, excepting of course the CRIMSON critic.
