Post-War Vienna Will Be Scene Of Deutscher Vereiii Production Gay, laughing Vienna, the post-war Vienna of story book and travel cat-' alogues, is the setting of this year's German play, "Das Konzert," which will be presented by Deutscher Verein at 8:30 p.m. Monday, April 25, in the Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre. Gustov Heink, the hero of the play is a famous Viennese pianist, sur- rounded by a large number of women students as interested in their teacher as they are in music. Heink frequently becomes in- volved in serious complications and has to depend on his very intelli- gent wife to steer him out of trouble. The role of Heink will be played by Arthur Klein, '39, and Emma Hirsch, '39, will take the part of Frau Heink. The play was written by Hermann Bahr. The plot which resembles Noel Coward's "Private Lives" while it avoids its cynicism, has a moral. Heink is taught by an amusing in- trigue that other persons besides himself must be considered. Before the World War the Deut- scher Verein was a very active organ- ization. The members of the club presented a number of plays which were not only presented in Ann Arbor but also in Detroit, Ypsilanti and Grand Rapids. During the war, however, the anti- 'German sentiment caused the organ- ization to cease its activity. Three Corsages Ki years ago the Deutseher Verein re- sumed activity. This year the play is being directed by Prof. Otto Graf of the German department. The other leading roles will be played by Ethel Winnai, '41, and Rolf Weil, '40, who will portray the roles of Doctor and Frau Jura; and Lola Boigimeister, '41, will play Miss Gerndl, the vamp.
