'C'AGE TWO, THE MICHIGAN DAILY ?AGE TWO THE MICHIGAN DAILY SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 26, 1966 THEATRE Trojan Women' Powerful in Hamilton's Lyric Translation By GAIL BLUMBERG One recent critic called Ann Arbor a wasteland in the Dramatic' Arts. The Play of the Month pro- duction of Euripides' "The Trojan Women," seen at Hill Aud. last night, goes a fair way towards disproving that statement. Edith Hamilton's translation had a lyrical power which painted Euripedes' picture of the pain and cruelty of war with simplicity and dignity. The production was able to sustain a high level of intensity, with little overstatement or back- tracking. It was remarkable in its tight unity and polished flow. The striking quality of the per- formance was due more to the translation and staging than to the acting. The original New York production was done in the small Circle in the Square theater in Greenwhich Village. It gained an encompasing power from the in- timacy of the surroundings. For once, Hill Aud. was adapted with relative intelligence and success.' The stage was drastically cut down, by means of side drapery and a large set of stairs leading to a white screen backdrop, fairly forward on stage. There was no other scenery. Sensitive lighting and stage move- ment supplied interest and con-, trast. The backdrop screen reflect- ed the classic silhouettes of the Trojan women, the dull glow of the blazing city in, its last mo- ments. The use of the chorus of Trojan women was one of the strong points of the production. Not only did it serve its traditional func- tion of commentator, but it added dynamically to the beauty and power of the whole-chanting in rising inflections and gliding back and forth in stylized dance move- ments. A rather effective sound track backed up the chorus. On the whole, the actors did a competent job to uphold the dig- nified flow of the lines. But only in some cases did they rise above the competent. Lynda Myles as Andromache, wife of Hector, was outstanding, especially in her handling of the final moments with her son. Paul Sorvino as Talthybius, although having a rather small part, was notable for the natural ease with which he handled it., I am still of two minds about Karen Ludwig's interpretation of Cassandra, the mad daughter of Hecuba, one of the play's more difficult roles. The transitions be- tween Cassandra mad and in her saner moments were not entirely convincing, slightly marring an otherwise good performance. Gretchen Kanne as Hecuba was more awkward than dignified in this very central role. She lacked the power to tie together the story; her tragic speeches often seemed forced and unmotivated. One of the more effective pieces of acting was a recording of the voice of Poseidon, at the beginning of the play, done by Rod Steiger.
