I Remember
Mama' To Be
Next Showing
"I Remember Mama," fourth
production of the speech depart-
ment's summer play schedule, will
open on campus Thursday.
Based on a series of nostalgic
stories by Kathryn Forbes, the
stage adaptation .was made by
John Van Druten, who wrote
"Voice of the Turtle" and "The
Druid's Circle."
Action in the play, which is con-
sidered the most popular recent
folk-drama, centers about the ev-
eryday experiences of a Norweg-
ian-American family living in San
Francisco shortly after the turn
of the century.
"Mama," a character drawn from
real life, heads the family and her
legendary bank account is the cen-
ter of much of the humor in the
play.
The drama lacks a formal plot
and is held together by a series
of connecting episodes. Transition
from one episode to another is
achieved by means of a literary
narrator, a device which was used
by the speech department in their
presentation last year of "Our
Town."
Director of the production is
Prof. William P. Halstead. Art di-
rection is by Oren Parker and
Harold Ross, assistant. Frances
Goodman is costumiere and Jack
Bender is in charge of technical
production.
Four performances of the folk-
drama will be staged in Lydia
Mendelssohn Theatre with presen-
tations Thursday through Satur-
day at 8 p.m. and a matinee
Saturday at 2:30 p.m.
