The Brentano Quartet,

Berlin Philharmonic during the Third
Reich.
On one side, Furtwangler is
accused of serving the Nazi regime by
an American tribunal, which asserts
the conductor aided Hitler by contin-
uing to work during the war.
On the other side, the late conduc-
tor claimed he stayed to defend the
intellectual life of his people against an
evil ideology.
Taking Sides runs Feb. 11-March 8
at the Maple/Drake Jewish
Community Center with Evelyn
Orbach directing Robert Grossman as
Furtwangler, John Michael Manfredi
as Major Steve Arnold, Betsy Brandt
as Emmi Staub, Charles McGraw as
Helmuth Rode, David Wolber as
Lieutenant Wills and Joanna Hastings
Woodcock as Tamara Sachs.
Some critics have said that
Harwood tries to sway the audience
toward Furtwangler's position by por-
traying him as perhaps a too-sympa-
thetic character.
Harwood's interest in the subject
also involves comparing Furtwangler
to another artist, Herbert von
Karayan, who joined the Nazi Party
twice but did not encounter the same
negative reaction.
At the end of the play, Harwood
wants the audience to think about the
issues of what defines a Nazi and what
constitutes support of Nazism.
In an interview with Albert-Reiner
Glapp, Harwood says, "I want the
audience to take sides. I think [the
play] is about an important subject —
an artist in a totalitarian society."

— Suzanne Chessler
