TWO GUTHRIE THEATRE PERFORMANCES PLAY PART At the Tyrone Guthrie Theatre this spring, The Skin of Our Teeth was the student performance open to all Edina-Morningside students. The Guthrie Theatre Players also toured high schools in the metropolitan area, presenting thirty-two individual performances for the first time this year. Douglas Campbell directed the two performances of MacBeth, staring Paul Ballantyne, which were held at Edina on January 1 1. Mr. Raymond Bechtle, os the Educational Advisor and the Editor of Setting the Stage, which is published by the Guthrie Theatre, kept Edina in touch with the events at the Guthrie. To enhance the study of Shakespeare, Hardy and Conrad, Mr. Everett Anderson required special art projects of his senior students. Displayed throughout the room, the art work gave students a chance to express their literary thoughts in a new way. English poetry was an important topic for seniors. Mr. Bechtle's classes wrote Shakespearean sonnets and next door, in room 101, Mr. Anderson assigned five poems to be written.
