First NU Showing Of Work By Fry "A Phoenix Too Frequent," play by Christopher Fry, will ba produced Friday and Saturday evening by the Laboratory Pro duction Theater of the Univer sity. This will be the first time that University theater-goers and students of literature will see a play by the noted English author. "A Phoenix Too Frequent," one of Fry's poetic comedies, is a lab production which will be presented in the Arena Theater by a cast of three people. Cast members are Luanne Raun, Jack Parris and Margot Hunt. FRY, CONSIDERED a poet playwright, has raised much comment in critic circles by fus ing poetry with drama as he has done in "A Phoenix Too Frequent." Some critics of Fry are ' un decided whether "his language is almost that of Shakespeare or that of a merchant of ginger beer." However, the excellence of his poetry has caused many to think of Fry as the "modern Shakespeace." "Poetic excellance and subtle wit are but two of the striking elements in this forthcoming play," stated Dale Holt, graduate student in speech and dramatics who is the director of the play. There is no admission charge. Dr. Stone To Discuss 'Orthopedic Surgery Nu-Med will meet Wednesday, January 13, at 7:30 p.m. in Lov Library Auditorium.
