ONE BETTER

The Mail

To the Editors of the CRIMSON:

The CRIMSON's reviewer of de Hartog's The Four Poster pointed out that this work goes the three-character Voice of the Turtle one better by requiring only two players. He added the comment that "the ultimate peak has yet to be scaled" and that "de Hartog's record will stand for a time." Actually this is no record at all, for Claude Vincent's full-length drama Conscience has only one character. This play was done magnificently last spring in both Boston and New York by one of our greatest actors, Maurice Schwartz.

But I suppose there still remains the "ultimate peak" of producing a play with no characters at all. --Caldwell Titcomb '47
