'cm-we use or 'wi NFISBY, OKINAWA IS A LAND OF ADVENTURE. . .a land of jar makes a 1nan's blood pound, exclainis Wilbur Love, '60, as Cc .60 The Teahouse ot the August Moon is the hilarious, and sometimes touching, story of American attempts to demonstrate splendid example oftbenevolent assimilation of democracy by Okinawa, as Sakini, the native in- terpreter tor the U.S. Marines, explains. Sakini's association with Captain Frisby, a teacher from Indiana given the assignment to rebuild a section of Okinawa, provides much of the play's humor. Frisby has many humorous experiences with the villagers, a young geisha girl, the wholesale liquor business, and an officer named Colonel Purdy. The play's philosophy is summed up at the end by Sakini, in an age-old Okinawan saying: Pain makes man think, Thought makes man wise, Wisdom makes life endurable.

'.The Locale The Lark, a tale of Saint Joan, embodies all the pomp and splendor of the French Court of Charles I. It portrays Charles I, historically famous for his stupidity and unfaithfulness to- ward Joan ofArc, as the humorous person he was. Scenes of Joan's life pass before the audience's eyes: the coming of the voices, the meetings with the angels, and the final scene of her death by fire. Given on Broadway and later on television, The Lark has thrilled American audiences since l955.
