Arena STAGE
Turns Now
ToFontosy
By Horry Macarthur

Arena Stage has turned now
from the farce of Three Men on a
Horse" to the fantasy of Dark
of the Moon" This is a 9O-degree
turn if not a complete about face,
but the new project probably can
be called a success. Fantasy is
better suited than almost any
thing else to theater-i -the-round.
This includes hillbilly fantasy
peopled by characters who might
have been imagined by Erskine
Caldwell.
They were imagined, in fact, by
Howard Richardson and William
Berney, to whom it once occurred
that the legend of Barbara Allen
might well be put upon the stage.
It's a defensible thought. Dark
of the Moon" probably is more
enjoyable, of course, if you look
at the surface and don't pay too
much attention to any stray i'm
plications. Whatever else it is, it
is interesting.
1t tells the story of legendary
Barbara's marriage to John, the
witch boy who loves her so much
he wants to be a human. BY his
bargain with the conjur woman. he
can remain human If Barbara
faithful for a year. She
almost makes it, too. Then on the
365th night a revival meeting
finds it the will of God that she
be delivered unto an old suitor,
that this witch shall be driven
from the valley.
There is a great deal of comedy
and some excitement strung
through the nine scenes and two
acts of Dark of the Moon" There
is an especially comic scene in
which Barbara's mother and
father and the local preacher
cope with the problem of finding
the girl a husband in her extreme
need of one. There is another
scene which aims at high comedy
but may set some teeth on edge
with its burlesque of a backwoods
revival meeting.
Edward Mangum has staged the
Arena production with some
Imagination, as a sort of ballet
with words and music. He has
had some able assistance from
Mary Pray (choreography) and
Albert Berkowitz, who arranged
the folk music.
The Arena cast plays Ozark of
the Moon to the hilt (and in a
few instances almost to the ell
bow. George Grizzard gets a lot
of spirit and some. tortured feel
ing into his playing of the witch
boy. Ann Chodoff is proper Bar
bara Allen, too. a girl for whom
a man might well consider giving
up flying to the moon on an eagle.
Henry Oliver, as the backwoods
preacher, and Angela Patton and
Roy Poole, as Barbara's parents.
bear most of the comedy burden
and seem quite up to the task.
Lesser roles are filled ably by
Pernell Roberts, as Barbara's de-
posed suitor; Joan Coppock. Al
bert Corbin, Verlyn Brown and
Leigh Burch. Ethel Casey and
Dorothy Ohliger turn up now and
then as leggy witches to tempt
John and decorate the premises.
They do both.
All things considered, it's a most
interesting production, even if
Dark of the Moon is something
less than the greatest fantasy in
American dramatic literature.

Gable Off for Europe,
But Not for T0xes
BY SheiIoh Grohom

At Metro they say that Ava Gard
ner's pout stems from Frankie's S
longtime beef with the studio.
They wanted Shelton to play
w. c. Fields in his movie biog at
20th-Fox. Red refused after read
ing the script. 1T isn't w. C..
Fields" he said. My hunch is
there are too many complications,
and they'll never make it.
