Show UNIVERSITY THEATRE This year the University Theatre took on a very ambitious program of theatrical events. Combining talents of students, townspeople and faculty mem-bers as well as guest artists became the prime concern of Director C. Lowell Lees and his staff. Gail Plummer, University Theatre manager, spent considerable time with ticket sales and promotion of Kingsbury Hall productions, Playbox events, Young People's Theatre, and this year cooperated with the Utah Symphony in promoting the "Marriage of Figaro." Scenery for this year's events was again designed by Vern Adix and his staff. Truly, University Theatre presented all the perspectives of drama. Set director Vern Adix designs newest scenery for next Kingsbury Hall production. Sturdy construction for theatre productions is imperative for successful staging. Broadway's Onslow Stevens starred as Captain Queeg in the Caine Mutiny Court-Martial. >ame Q^iAui &*/' QSrifat Herman Wouk's famous stage play was featured as the first University Theatre production for this year. Boasting of professional talent, the play starred Onslow Stevens of the Broadway stage as Captain Queeg. Directed by Robert Hyde Wilson, the play featured the battle of wits between prosecution and defense in the court martial. Members of the Naval Science program played the famous silent judges in the play's five-day run. Add to all of these features a very realistic stage setting and you have the successful "Caine Mutiny Court Martial." 99 |
