BY FRANK JACOBS
Realism is the key word echoing
through the Temple Theatre as
the technical crew prepares for
the opening of the University
Theatre production, "Winterset,"
Wednesday, Dec. 15.
According to Technical Direc
tor Robert Black, several inno
vations will give the Maxwell
Anderson play an added opening
night sparkle.
Scenes More Life Like
"One of these," stated Black,
"pertains to the scenery itself.
Perhaps the most important scene
of the play takes place in a base
ment under a rotting tenement.
Naturally, an interior of this type
cannot resemble an 18th century
drawing room. So, to add realism,
we have constructed the walls in
irregular shapes and added the
necessary heating pipes that dis
tinguish a setting of this sort."
Technical Director Black then
explained how the scenes oiitside
were being made more life-like.
Crews Build Rock Scenes
"The exterior scene is on a
river front. Rocks jut out all over
the place. Construction crews have
built several man-made rocks.
"And of course the other ele
ments are not absent in the
drama. Because of the need the
University Theatre has added four
modern weather machines to its
increasing number of sound-effects.
"These are the wind machine, a
large perforated wooden cylinder
with a canvas covering; the rain
machine which consists of a smal
ler metal cylinder full of buck
shot; the thunder machine, an
extra-large square of plywood
sheet that is shaken; and the in
triguing fog machine which will
send the fog from the river rolling
in on siage.
Machines Give Realistic Note
these machines," concluded
Black, "coupled with the above-
named scenery, combine to nive
"Winterset" a very realistic note
indeed."

Hoffman; costume manager, Tom
Stimfig; makeup manager, Clare
Denton; stage manager, Mary Sig
