About $700 worth of audio-visual equipment and slides was stolen from the Loeb Drama Center between midnight Wednesday and 3 p.m. Thursday. The equipment was to have been used in the Experimental Theatre's production of Hollow Rustling, a play by Jonathan B. Stolzenberg '71.
An eight-track stereo tape system owned by W. David McCollum '71, a slide projector containing slides to have been used in the production, and a microphone from the Loeb's sound system were taken.
Author-director Stolzenberg and producer Alexander J. Swistel '71, hastily borrowed replacement equipment and duplicate slides, and the play was performed as scheduled last night. Its three-day run ends Saturday.
Fortunately, the thief left behind a specially produced tape recording used in synchronization with the slides. He was apparently well acquainted with the Loeb, Swistel said yesterday, since the stolen equipment was in an out-of-the-way room.
Swistel said the incident was the first major theft in the Loeb's history.
