You flip the pages of history and the people and places come to life. Out of the past comes the beginning of a future; the formation of the first university in the Northwest territory. These things The Green Adventure accomplishes vividly. Suddenly the bustle and conversation of the audience fades into silence as the Sesqulcentennial Seal appears on a translucent screen. The dim out- line of the Bunch of Grapes Tavern in Boston is seen in the background. It is like a painting coming to life. The final and life-like colors are added when the first words are spoken. Men in bright costumes of the past, with lace at their collars and sleeves, make a decision amid the revelry of the Tavern. There is to be a university in the wilderness. To New York comes the news of the land-grant made by the government. Then the story moves west to Ohio. Marietta, where the new settlers, typified in Dr. Perkins and his family, endure the pains and adventures of pioneering, hiere an Indian uprising occurs, and the death of their child dramatically moves the audience. Then, finally, on to Middletown (later Athens), on the banks of the Hockhocking. And gradually the beginnings of Ohio University: the first building, the three students who enrolled the first year, the first two graduates — just to mention a few firsts. The ploy ends appropriately, looking into the future with its rise of coming generations. Lydia Perkins Dr. Eliphoz Perkins Col. Aaron Burr Gen. Ru(us Putnon THE QREEN ADVENTURE Remew by Ahmed Essa and Kdtfiv Dengter ttHi ' tiit IiH ' i Written specifically for the Sesqulcentennial by Charles Allen Smart at the request of President Baker, the work is on historical panorama, rather than a ploy. Smart has failed to adapt the lucidity of his prose to the presentation of drama. Rather lengthy, it has its dramatic, as well as dull and burlesque moments. The play has its finer moments, too, which effectively present the human side of history. Both the production and direction, however, are almost flawless. The presentation reached the height of realism in the fort scene, vividly presenting the fullness of frontier life. The players must be commended on their fine performances. Daniel Logan, as Dr. Perkins, is convincing and sincere, as is his wife, played by Patience Linker. Christopher Lane, director, excellently handles the difficult job of unifying the production. Much of the impact of the presentation is gained through the sets and special effects of Cosmo Catolano and the cos- tuming of Elizabeth Andersch. The best of compliments go to the children in the play, who stole the show and won their way into the hearts of the audience.
