In addition to the development and pro- duction of a new play, the grant was stimulated by interest in a closer relationship between the church and the arts. Shown in the picture is the clini;ictic scene of this charming and exotic morality play set in ancient China. « V ' M An interest in the ;id ;uicemcnt of good theater and a wiliingnes. ' ; to helji toward this goal is the basis for mem bership in the Blue Masque. The forty mem- bers achieve a more thorough understanding of the theater through acti e participation in various phases of dramatic presentations.
