Seasonal Dilemma

Seasonal Dilemma
This sort of thinking, fol-
lowed by action, could be a
solution to a problem that
remains for even such a debt
free, foundation blessed the
alter as Washington's Arena
Stage.
Second only to the money
problem, from which it is
now absolved, Arenas dilem-
ma every season is that of
putting together a balanced
play program. Out of endless
arduous work and agonized
elaboration, it has achieved
remarkable success on this
score; one that is the envy
of the regional type theaters
recently encouraged by more
than Sc million of Ford Foun-
dalton grants.
The fact remains, with q
terrifyingly invincibie aspect,
that Broadway is the obses-
sion not merely Of estab-
lished playwrights but also
the unknowns. The inspira-
ton Of this, of course, is that
Broadway sis where the
money Is" in the dream of
everyone who writes a play,
first or 21st. That the dream
lasts only until the morning
after opening in eight of 10
instances in no way alters
the situation.
On a second go-round, or
later, the playwright who has
had the Broadway awakening
experience will try a few
blocks south, off Broadway.
This has happened in the
case Of such an established
dramatist as Tennessee Will
liams, but only in something
of cit of petulance.
Arena Has Tried
But so far as "out of town"
for a test production is con-
cerned, that's out.
There are those who think
Broadway and theaters such
as Arena Stage both lose by
not giving Moss Harris vision
a trial.
Arena is not without at
least a limited experience in
the sort of thing Mr.. Hart
had in mind. In it's IL sea-
sons, one a sabbatical, it has
produced five plays on this
empirical, or pragmatic. prin-
ciple. One of these lives in
its book as perhaps the top
achievement in it's history.
This was 1.-THE Egg" the
work Of an established French
contemporary playwright, Fe-
hcien Marceau. The excite
ment it created was heard as
far away as New York to
which "The Egg" went to be-
come a quick flop, which
stunned those who saw it
both places and perceived
how Broadway's commercial
ism had corrupted what had
been a work Of sardonic art
at Arena.
No one questioned where
the guilt lay.
A much earlier experiment,
this one with the work of an
established American play
wright, was Arenas produc-
ton Of Robert Anderson's
"All Summer Long" 1t was
proved worthy of a Broadway
try, no more, but still not
out Of line with the Hart
notion of experimental out
of-town productions.
Arena has three other new
play productions, a total of
five in an aggregate of al
most 100. Two of these were
attractive but not irresistible
bits of whimsy, "Clandestine
on the Morning Line" a Ford
Foundation sponsored work,

BY JAY CARMODY
Drama CRITIC of The Star

& In a wry, ruminative mood
some years ago, the late Moss
Hart thought aloud that
there ought to be a better
way of getting a play to
Broadway.
The better way of which
he was thinking was one
that would detour a new
work around the standard
route, New Haven to Boston
on the north, Wilmington to
Washington on the south.
The play he had in mind
was his own Climate of
Eden," which got a drubbing
from most critics but ended
up the year with one stub
born "best play" vote in the
New York Critics Circle bal
loting the following April.
Playwright Hart was not bit
ter. He wasn't the bitter type.
He could look at the failure
of "The Climate of Eden"
with objectivity enough to
speculate that perhaps the
error lay in the fact that he
directed it himself.
Maybe" he said, st should
have just handed it to some
capable university director,
let him get it on stage with
out a word from me, and then
gone out to look at it as a
half-stranger. I wonder how
many changes I would have
made before Broadway with
a chance to have seen it at
such a distance" ..

Fisherman
Dimes With
First Lady

RAVELLO, Italy, Aug. 81
(AP).-Mrs. Jacqueline Ken
nedy invited an italian fish
erman, his wife and three
children for dinner last night
in her rented vacation villa.
The five guests at the table
with President Kennedy's
wife and her sister, Princess
Lee Radziwill, were Alfonso
Gambardella and his family.
Mr.. Gambardella lives in
nearby Amalfi and often pi-
lots the motor launch that
takes the vacationing United
States First Lady to her
private Beach at Conca Del
Marini.
Mr.. Gambardella called
with his wife, Olga, and their
children, Carmela, 9, Antonio,
7, and Marcello 3.
Antonio received a warm
smile from Mrs. Kennedy
upon her return from a trip
up the coast by Positano. The
7-year-old greeted her at the
boat dock by kissing her
hand.
Mrs. Kennedy spent most
of yesterday swimming and
water skiing on the Amalfi
coast.

I can send her to the train

that would be expensive and
an end to academic training.
How are the vocational

Would modelling school be a
good place for a start in the

making friends? I want to

not sure what would be best.
Thank you for any informa-

TV Captures
True Segoviu
BY DONALD MINTZ
Contributing Critic

Andres Segovia, the grand
old man Of the classical guitar,
was the center Of attraction on
the Festival Of Performing Arts
on WTTG-5 last night.
1t was a typical Segovia per-
formance. Half identified bits
and pieces Of music he likes
we're played with a refinement
so intense that 1t sometimes
becomes mannerism. At It's
best, in the 18th Century lutte
pieces for example, it is mag
nificent. At its worst, it Is q
little irritating.
Segovia sits quietly, his left
foot propped on an old fash
ioned foot stool. His express
sion is impassive. His eyes fol-
lowed his left hand. But he is
really contemplating some in
ner vision Of the music.
Kirk Browning's camera cap
tured this with taste, fidelity
and discretion. There was not
the slightest hint of sensation
aliSm. AS a matter Of fact, 1t
is hard to see how anyone
could shatter Segovia's old
fashioned dignity, but we have
cause to be grateful that no
one tried.
Here was the essence Of the
superb program. But James
Fleming and David Susskind,
the producers. seemed deter
mined to Shatter it by surround
ing it with unbelievable bar
barisms.
There was Segovia sur
rounded by a forest Of surreal-
iSt columns that seemed to be
left over from an old Jean
Cocteau movie. He shared the
sound track with an unac-
ceptably high noise level and
of all things-the studio in
tercom.
The heroic march-of-pr
ress title music and supposedly
cute musical noises that ac-
company the commercial would
be ghastly under any circum-
stances. But in conjunction
with a concert they are appal-
ling beyond description.
Tv has gotten to be a pretty
big boy. It's high time it quit
spelling its best efforts with
ancillary idiocies.
