'f 'i Nlwt-5 , The spring of 1942 saw a most successful i production of the redoubtable Shalcespeards x L great tragedy, Macbeth . Alvin Anderson, as 'l the ambitious usurper, Macbeth, played his l role with fine discrimination and herce intensity. His soliloquies had the quietness of profound thought with an undercurrent of fiery tempera- 5 ment. Lady Macbeth was portrayed most 3 vividly and passionately by Marjorie Thompson. Q Her sleep-walking scene was one of the greatest I performances that has ever been projected from l l the stage of Jamestown College. The costumes were an artistic triumph for Wendell josal who 1 designed them all. ssuwa Hon of Hannelle The Assumption of Hannel-le'Q a play by a German playwright, Gerhart Hauptmann, ' was presented at Christmas time. The play is a finely wrought combination of naturalness and fantasy. The inspiring story of the simple faith of I-Iannelle made real to the audience the true, spiritual significance of the Christmas season. The child-like and fanciful Hannelle was portrayed with delicacy and pathos by Elizabeth Robertson. The background of organ music and singing voices integrated the play into a moving piece of dramatic artistry. L- -5 :- 'K+ -, , A i ,559
