Loeb Center Will Open Workshops On Small Stage

The Loeb Drama center's Experimental Theater will hold an audience for the first time when the HDC Workshop presents the first of a series of seven short plays Friday and Saturday evenings.

The first production, W. B. Yeats' Shadowy Waters, has been in preparation for about three weeks. As every planed show is about 30 minutes long, there will be several performances on each Friday and Saturday evening during the series.

The Experimental is smaller than the main auditorium but provides extensive facilities for experimental staging and lighting. Its flexibility will enable workshop members to try various designs and light-plots.

Free Performances

Charles W. Hayford '62, a members of the HDC executive Board, noted that there will be no charge for the performances, as materials and all facilities for the production will be furnished by the Drama Center.

The Cambridge Neighborhood Theater will present a play by one of its members as a part of the Workshop program the weekend of November 4. One week later Robert H. Chapman, associate professor of English, will supervise the production of Albee's The Sandbox.

Anyone! Anyone! by Charles E. Mee, Jr. '61, which appeared in the latest issue of identity, will be the fourth workshop presentation.

The three works which will complete the seven-play series are as yet unspecified.
