'Ghosts7 To Hqunt
University Theater
April 6 7 9 and! 0
April 6 7 9 and 10 the Hardin-
Simmons University Players will
present their major spring pro-
duction with the play "Ghosts"
Harry Thompson director of Uni-
versity Theater announced.
Cast for the production includes
Gail Eglestron St. Louis as Mrs.
Alving; Allen Lewis Houston a
Pastor Manders; Jerry Watson
Abilene as Oswald Alving; Karen
Dinchak Nequon Wis. as Re-
gina; and James Wright Winters
as Jacob Englstrand.
Henrik Ibsen author of
"Ghosts" is known as "the father
of modern drama." Thompson said
the Norwegian dramatist sought
"to restore to playwriting its
power of reflecting the image of
man to himself as he struggled
within his own time and society.
"For him theater did not have
to be dedicated to entertainment
solely. It could be intellectually
respectable by revealing truths.
To Ibsen nothing was beyond the
probing curiosity and scrutiny of
the playwright. This determina-
tion to bring issues attitudes and
problems of his own day into his
writing he helped emancipate
the entire Victorian society."
Social implications of "Ghosts"
is not a backdoor peeping into the
upper class of the nineteenth cen-
tury but rather an indictment of
the social climate of the whole
era whose code of "duty" was
tantamount to a moral ethic. Duty
had become the ultimate .author-
ity displacing love as the moti-
vating force of integrity.
The truth displayed in Ibsen's
famous drama helped open the
door to all subsequent writers to
deal freely and honestly with
issues ideas and problems
Thompson said.
Set forthe H-SU production of
"Ghosts" designed by Robert
Scales technical director and de-
signer for University Theater
will be an open constructive type
Thompson said. The structure will
help convey the emptiness inher-
ent in the meaning of the play.
The design in set and lighting
also assist the flow of the play
and makes the acting style fluid
and free. In this design the other-
wise ponderous play moves well
unencumbered by extreme natur-
alism the director explained.
Each performance of the play
will begin at 8 p. m. Reservations
will be necessary and may be
secured by telephoning Extension
228 Thompson said. Admission
charges will be $1 for adults and
75 cents for high school students.
