I STAGES PLAY
AT IMMANUEL
LUTHERAN COLLEGE
Jack Rank, a great American
artist, dramatist and playwright,
presented William Shakespeare's
"The Merchant of Venice"
in the Immanuel Lutheran
College auditorium on Tuesday,
evening, March 2. Mr. Rank, appearing
in the final lyceum number
of the season, was introduced
by Dr. H. Nau, president of the
college.
Mr. Rank began by relating
the story, in order that the
audience could properly understand
the play. Then he presented
the entire play himself, portraying
all the characters, both
male as well as female, in gorgeous,
authentic costumes with
affective dramatization.
His complete program of
entertainment combined with
unusual artistry held his audience
spell-bound. With his
characterization, ingenious costume
changes and phenominal
voice, he swung his audience
from the tragic to the rediculous,
from the romantic to the fantastic,
with his stream-lined
Shakespearean Immortal classio
of the seventeenth century.
The playwright left no stone
unturned as he held the audience
in a daze, while for the
first time the presiding presence
of the moral sense and a fundamental
seriousness betrayed
Itself in the deeper and more
religious harmonies of the
verse.
