'Deathwatch' Slated For Yale Showing

Deathwatch, Jean Genet's prison drama recently produced here, will be performed at the Yale Drama Festival on March 29, Stephen A. Aaron '57, the play's director, announced yesterday.

The original cast of Colgate Salsbury '57, Harold Scott '57, D. J. Sullivan '57, and Robert Hesse '59 will put on the play without the advantage of a set. Aaron at first objected to taking the play to Yale because of this handicap, but said that he hoped to improvise one.

The invitation to the festival, which is being held this year for the first time, was issued to the Harvard Dramatic Club. Deathwatchis an independent production but neither Hamletnor The Doctor's Dilemma,this year's HDC productions, fulfilled the requirement of a one-act play.
