the play recalling their own priS-
oner experience written by Dom
aid Bevan and Edmund Trzcinski
is drawing to a fine plays honor
able ending. It will remain,
however, a long. long time in
the memory of theatergoers as
an account of not merely what
men can endure but of the ex-
cltement and wry humor that
co-exist with endurance.
"Stalag II" produced and di-
rected by Jose Ferrer, is a slice
of reality. It's former prisoner
of war authors have not troubled
with the psychology Of men
suspended in boredom, inter-
sperSed with the brutality Of
their captors.
Instead, they have written a
guilty and bitterly humorous
play of an actual prison camp
break and the discovery Of a
traitor in their barracks. Yet.
like the authors of Mister
Roberts," they have not been so
concerned with the mere dra-
matte incident that they have
ignored the character of the
men involved in it.
The prisoners of "Stalag IT,"
which once housed 4,200 Ameri-
can airmen, including Bevan
and Trzcinski, are men to see
and remember. Their actor rep
resentatives in the production
at the National this week pay |
them the respect that is their |
due.
The captive airmen of "Stalag |
II" must have come as a shock
ing surprise to their German |
jailers, informed by Hitler that |
young Americans were a de-
cadent lot. Without arms, be-
hind barbed wire and at the
mercy of ruthless guards. their
bodies and spirits both survive. |
They are capable of fighting
back with psychological weap-
ons. They heap scorn and
ridicule upon their captors, keep
them off balance with impudent
mimicry, escape plots and an
insistence upon their rights.
1t is this attitude that pro-
vides "Stalag II" with its hi
larity, a quality imperative as
relief for the tormenting sus-
pense which gives the play its
dominant dramatic note.
The latter grows out of the
arrival in camp of a Boston
blue blood whose relish for
fighting Germans has led him to
set fire to a German train en-
route to Stalag II. This is too
good a story to keep and its
blurted out in the barracks be-
fore any one remembers that an
tnformer lives among the group.
Now the line of conflict is
drawn: Can the informer's |
identity be established at too

Ferrer's Unsuitable appetite for
melodramatic excitement colors
every moment Of the play at
the National. He is the pro-
ducer-director who could not
have resisted the challenge of
this work. It gives him an ir-
resistible chance to play with the
diverse qualities Of humans in
a situation which is bound to
explode with fatal results.
For all its difference to the
truth that men can be funny
in the most unfunny situation,
"Stalag II" is remorseless in its
pursuit Of its spy. It does not
scatter suspicion in the way Of
cheap melodramatic formula.
Nor does it cheat in concen-
trating it upon the single saw
age individualist among the
prisoners.
This is a loner who trades
with the prison guards, SCOTS
at the groups effort to live by
code. and breaches his disdain
for the pampered in a rage chat
never abateS.
Clearly he is the one of the
group who could betray his fell
low Bostonian. Whether he
does or not is something the
audience never learns until a
final scene that is the most excit-
ing theatergoers have seen in
years.
It is the same excellent cast
seen here earlier in the season
that plays "Stalag II" at the
National. It finds a corking
actor for the bitter young pris-
oner and principal spy suspect
in Douglas Watson. Two very
funny ones turn up in George
Tobias and Jerry Jarrett. the
barracks playboys. and another
in Bill Penn as the inevitable
juvenile.
Ferrer's impeccable taste in
players is evident also in the per-
formance of Laurence Hugo as
the barracks security officer; in
Edward Platt who plays the
groups commander; Lothar Re-
walt as the Nazi corporal; and
Robert Lansing as the inspired
young airman who set fire to
the German train.
John Robert Lloyd designed
the barrack setting and its at
mosphere suggests that frightful
things have happened to the
rules Of so-called civilized war
fare.
