Cosi Fan Tutte' Starts Run Today at Lydia Mendelssohn I The fate of two charming and foolish ladies who have sworn fi- delity to their departing lovers will be displayed when Mozart's comic opera "Cosi Fan Tutte" opens at 8 p.m. today in the Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre. Demand for tickets has been so great that a fifth performance, a matinee scheduled for 2:30 p.m. Saturday, has been added. ** * TICKETS FOR this showing, as well as those which remain for the evening performances, may be obtained at the Lydia Mendels- sohn box office, or reserved by telephoning 6300, according to Ticket Sale Manager Ann Drew. The heroines ofe"Cosi Fan Tutte" (Al Women Are The Same), Fiordiligi and Dorabella, don't know that their two young officer-lovers, Guglielmo and Ferrando, have accepted a wag- er with Don Alfonso, who does not believe that the ladies' af- fectionis are constant. Within 24 hours the two young gentlemen return in the most ob- vious sort of disguise and after a series of ludicrous and ridicu- lous complications instigated by Don Alfonso and Despina, a ser- vant girl, almost succeed in mis- leading the hearts of Fiordiligi and Dorabella. DOUBLE CASTS have been picked for the production, which will be completely sung and act- ed in English. The two casts will handle alternate performances. Performing tonight will be Norma Heyde, Grad., soprano, as Fiordiligi; Elsie Bell, '50, so- prano, as Dorabella; Carol Neil- son, '50, soprano, as Despina; Volpone To Be Shown Here Theatre Guild Plan Announced by Stuart Ben Jonson's "Volpone" will be presented by the Theatre Guild on May 5 and 6 at Patteiigill Auditor- ium, it was announced yesterday by Harvey Stuart, '50, newly elect- ed president of the group. The technical crew and busi- ness staff of the production will meet at 7:30 p.m. today in the Temporary Classroom Building. Persons interested in these aspects of the production may attend. Casting auditions will be held at 7:30 p.m. tomorrow and Friday in the same place. Len Rosenson, seen this sea- son in "Murder in the Cathe- dral," "Orphee," and "Closed Session," will direct the lusty sixteenth century comedy. Ro- senson toured Europe with the play while head of a Special Services group in 1946. "Volpone is a robust satire by one of Shakespeare's leading riv- als. We feel that the production will prove of exceptional interest to a college audience, and is at the same time in keeping with the high dramatic standards origin- ally set by the founders of the group," Stuart said. r r r . - - - ---V - V r V--- --- -- Ja k Wilcox, Grad., Vass, as Guglielmo; Reid Shelton, Grad., tenor, as Ferrando; and Robert Elson, '50, baritone, as Don Al- fonso.
