Hum 4 to Stage Moliere Comedy At Loeb Theatre

Moliere's Tartuffe, in a transalation by Richard Wilbur, will be produced next Fall at the Loeb in conjunction with Humanities 4. The course will be the first at Harvard to give credit for participation in a play.

Tartuffe, directed by George Hamlin, associate director of the Loeb, will alternate in an unprecedented repertory arrangement with George Bernard Shaw's Major Barbara, directed by Michael Ehrhardt '66. The shows will be produced on alternate nights, Dec. 2-11; the run will involve two Saturday matinees.

All four shows produced at the Loeb next Fall will run consecutively for one week instead of on two weekends. The schedule was rearranged to allow the production of four plays each term instead of three.

The other two shows produced next Fall will be Jan Giraudoux's The Duel of Angels, directed by Charles N. Ascheim II, 65-3, and William Shakespeare's The Tempest, directed by Timothy S. Mayer '66. Duel of Angels will run from Oct. 28-Nov. 3, and The Tempest, Nov. 12-18.
