Curtain Rises Soon For Rope "... ^^^ijBfc- -■- '"i:'S:'; THE 'ROPE' ACTORS rehearse for perfection in these scenes from the play which opens a four night run on Wednesday. (Above) T. C. Fender, Bill Smathers and Leon Singleton react to the emoting of Jan Wasdell. (Top Right) Joan Burnette hits a peak in her performance. (Bottom Right) Burnette is carefully watched by T. C. Roberts as she wraps a package on the chest containing the dead victim.—(Staff Photos by Vogler) As the paint dries on the scenery and the last lines are being learned a nervous and excited anticipation descends upon the Little Theatre at Cullowhee. Only a few days are left before Wednesday, February 12 and the opening of a new production, Rope. The opening of every new play has a very special meaning to the actors, directors and technicians involved. The actors wonder if they will be liked and whether or not their performance is really good. The director worries about whether the actors will remember all that he has told them. The technicians hope that light and sound cues will go perfectly. And everyone prays that the show will be a success. Only opening night can tell the story and answer the questions. Only an audience can truly judge. For the Little Theatre's production of Patrick Hamilton's exciting drama, ROPE, a cast of eight college actors has been assembled. Each actor has that particular quality neded to portray his role. The leads, Brandon and Granillo, are college students being played by college students, Bill Smathers and Thad C. Roberts. They murder a fellow undergraduate and invite the dead boy's father and aunt (Duane Oliver and Jan Wasdell) to a dinner party. Also to the party come Leila Arden and Kenneth Raglan. These are two young people who add humor and reality to the almost morbid evening. Joan Burnette plays Leila, but better than that, Miss Burnette becomes Leila. Kenneth Raglan is everything that T. C. Fender (the actor playing him) is, and together, the pair make a charming stage couple. Leon Singleton breathes life into the role of Rupert Cadell the angry young poet. Kay Collins molds herself into a dowdy maid from Staten Island. All of these actors come from different backgrounds and, as people, have very little in common, but they have poured their personalities into a single unit: the play. As an ensemble team they are sharing in the creation of what they hope will be an exciting piece of theatre. The play Itself is certainly not new. The author took his plot from the 1924 Leopold- Loeb murder case and channeled it into a 1929 drama. The current production has up-dated the time to the present and set it in a plush New York apartment. When asked why this was done, the play's director, Bill Shawn Smith, said that "a play must communicate to its audience, and we felt that in order to really hit home, we must give something to the audience with which it can identify. We had to make the play's students, students of today." The groundwork for Rope has almost reached completion. The drama is ready to entertain, but in order to do this it will need an audience to share in the union. It is really for the audience that the many hard hours of mental and physical labor have occurred. Rope is no exception. Rope is for you.

Films This Week "Billy Rose's Jumbo1 Suffocates Under Load Of Sand, Sawdust By Leon Singleton The movie for tonight in Hoey Auditorium is Fraulein. The movie stars Mel Ferrer and Dana Wynter in the story of a beautiful German Girl who aids an escaping G.I. during the second world war. Admission is 25 cents and the show begins at 7:30 p.m. Billy Rose's "Jumbo" is the movie slated for showing In Hoey Auditorium on Tuesday, February 11. The movie stars Doris Day, Stephen Boyd, Martha Raye and Jimmy Durante. As could be assumed by the title, it is a circus story and is typically full of sand and sawdust. There are some other things that It is full of also, but none of them can be equated to entertainment on an adult level. Since most college students are adults, it is only fair to limit this movie to children under the ages of 14. Alas, no such luck. The most impressive feature about the movie is, undoubtedly, the waste it makes of Doris Day's talent. Although her voice does bring the big top to life in spots, it remains far from the greatest show on earth. The plot, which is negligible, amounts only to a game of "who has the elephant." Miss Day and family posses? the beast originally, but he is stolen by the wily Stephen Boyd. The wily Stephen Boyd, however, falls madly in love with Miss Day and returns Jumbo. There follows a wonderful period of togetherness in which the four troupers, five counting Jumbo, build a—how does it go?—tremendous, super- colossal, gigantic circus. Thus, the movie comes happily to an end, unless of course you happen to be sitting in the audience. It can have a happy ending in this case, of you are five years old. Therefore, the movie is recommended for the young, very young, and young at heart. Show time is 7:30 p.m., and admission price is 25 cents. The movie in Hunter Gal- ery this week is called "La Strada" and stars Anthony Quinn and Giuletta Masina. The date of showing is Thursday, February 13.
