we decide the other day to cut that? I think we won’t, it’s too lovely.'’ “The Two Gentlemen of Verona” is being retailored to fit the taste of the present day public. The tailors are members of Gilmore Brown's class In educational dramatics. The “Two Gentlemen” will be presented in chapel at 10 a.m . August 8.
“Yes, they do shy off, I am sorry. It is true that these courses do not attract. men. I don’t know why, as there seems to be an equal distribution of men and women on the campus too,’ said Mr. Brown when the statement was offered that it was regrettable that there were no men in the class “But,” he smiled “we’ll reverse the o d Shakespearean order of things in which the parts were all played by men and present a very modern performance. ’
“What p ay or plays of Shakespeare do you like best?’’ was asked.
“I don’t know. I am interested in all plays. Sometimes wrhen the new* playhouse is completed, I hope to produce ‘Pericles, Phince of Tvre’,” he answered.
Mr. Brown’s love of pageantry and his long e> perience in that line, no doubt, accounts for his preference for “Pericles, Prince of Tyre.” Although | he stated that he thinks the play exciting, it is as a whole the most singularly undrama.ic of Shakespeare’s dramas. A large portion of the play is set forth in dumb show.
“The Two. Gentlemen of Verona” will be presented in a novel way and since it is seldom produced its presen* tation offers a rare opportunity tc Summer session students.
