WO 2-7288 Actor's Guild Has Success with Miller's Play, 'All My Sons Arthur Miller's moving drama "All My Sons," the story of two partners involved with government contracts whose production of faulty motors caused death to 21 flyers dur- ing the war, is not easy fare for a non-professional group. Yet, the play. was performed creditably last Tuesday and Wednesday evenings by the Actors Guild of Temple Israel in its first production since be- coming affiliated with the temple. While several players shared in the success of the venture, laurels go to Beth-Sheva Laikin, who, as Kate Keller, the wife of one of the partners, gave a thoroughly stirring perform- ance. Credit also goes to Peter Stoner, as Joe Keller; Barron Fredrick Deneau as his son, Chris; and Lorraine Ernst, as Chris' fiance. In the double role of Dr. Jim Bayliss and as direc- tor of the production, N. Paul Silverman also drew the ap- plause of the audience. Others in the cast were Dan Smith, Joyce •Feurring, Don Shapiro, Lillian Levy 'and 11- year-old Jim Roby. Several of the performers have been seen and heard in local theater work and on radio and television. Miss Laikin, who in private life is Mrs. Harold Davidson, has had a particu- larly extensive background in the theater. The past experience of the performers, as well as the suc- cess gained in this first ven- ture, should encourage the group to continue its efforts and even extend them to the vast repertory of solid Jewish plays that are available for production. —F.
