(k)d Brown" and "Six Char
acters in Search of an Au
thor." Unlike standard drama,
playreading is presented with
out the use of extensive cos
tuming, scenery c acting.
Eiaphasis is on oral interpret
ation of the play, which is
read by a group seated some
what informally.
Schultz said one of the prob
lems faced in reading the "Ti
ger" or other plays In this
manner is that fact that the
cast members hold books dur
ing the performance, trying
to give an Impression that
they are reading the lines of
an author rather than actual
ly acting a part.
"This leads to problems
which range from how to turn
pages and how to gesture all
the way up to how to inter
pret the role," Schults said.
"We have found." the di
i rector added, "that in doing
j a comedy such as this one we
must come closer to acting
than if we were doing a trag
i edy. You've got to have some
'physical action to make the
I lines funny. This means a
j completely different approach
(to direction and reading."
Schultz said "Tiger" has
! some aw fully funny lines but
is really a thought provoking
tragedy. "The theme is war
land militarism as it effects
I everyone from the soldier in
the front lines to the politi
cians on the borne front. It's
timely and it should be con
troversial." The director said this play
was especially suited to play
reading interpretation be
cause "a full scale produc
tion w ith costume and scenery
! might distract from the phil
iosophical values of the
! script."

i Richards as Hector, Ann Pren-
tice as Andromache. John
