Page Six THE COLLEGIATE March 10 “A 3Ian For All Seasons” Is A Success For Stage And Script By JIM BUSSELL Last TTiursday night the Stage and Script of Atlantic Christian College presented its third suc cessful production of the 1965- 19Gfi season. The play, Robert Bolt’s “A Man For All Seasons,” is about Sir Thomas More, a giant among men, and his struggle against those who would have him for sake his beliefs and bow to the will of a tyrant. But even his own wife and daughter cannot persuade him to bow to the wishes of Henry VIII More is a master at handling vain men such as Henry, but he cannot give his approval to Hen ry’s divorce. Sir Thomas, a de vout Catholic, refuses to commit himself, although his support would influence many other En glishmen. More displays both wisdom and love for his family by being careful not to say any thing which his family may have to repeat. He deliberately pro vokes an argument with his best friend, the Duke of Norfolk, who could be hurt by their friendship. Threats, imprisonment, and the poverty of his family can’t sway More. He steadfastly clings to his religious beliefs, and skill fully defends himself at his trial. Unfortunately, the is convicted on trumped-up charges of trea son. “A Man For All Season” con veys the idea that even in the midst of corruption there is someone who stands for high ideals and that some things are worth personal sacrifice. It is a lesson we would all do well to remember. The play, designed and directed by Cecil Willis, was a master piece in its characterization. Each player seemed to relive the character which he was portray ing. Clifford Poole gave a beauti ful and remarkable performance as Sir Thomas More, but he will have to share his glory with Fred Barber. Mr. Barber, who played The Common Man, was excellent in his role. His pur pose was to narrate, set the scenes, and to add humor to the play. He was the type of man who would do anything for a price, so long as it was easy. James Burroughs did an excel lent portrayal of Thomas Crom well, More’s arch-enemy. The leading female roles were played by Dorothy Wyman, More’s wife, and Sandra Ed wards as More’s daughter. The Duke of Norfolk, More’s best friend, was well portrayed by Robert Parvin, and Grady was excellent in his role as Master Richard Rich, a man eager for success but suspicious of everyone. Completing the cast were Cecil Willis as Cardinal Wolsey, Fred John , Ambassador; and Russell Frady as the Ambassador’s attendant. The costumes used in the play were very beautiful and added much to the impression of the audience. Jackie Baker, Lois Hall, Mary Louise Gray, and Edwards as the Archbishop of Canterbury, and Jackie Baker as a woman. In addition to these were several newcomers to Stage and Script: Byron Wyndham played William Roper, a young man who is in love with Mar- geret, Moore’s daughter Dale Lininger portrayed King Henry Leeman Lamb as the Spanish Ruth Price should certainly com mended for their excellent work. The scenery and furniture truly gave the production an authentic atmosphere for its sixteenth cen tury setting. The entire Stage and Script is certainly to be congratulated on such an excellent perform ance. Flamenco Guitarist Will Appear In ACC Concert Warren Wooten’s Radio Center RADIO—T.V.
