Vagabond player Steve Whittaker portrays the character of the young boy struggling for recognition and luve in an unfeeling New York. October 31 marked the opening of the first Vagabond play of the year, The Brick and the Rose. Presented in the large auditorium, the tragedy dealt with the mounting problems of a young man struggling to know himself in a world of poverty and indifference. The boy, finding no love or compassion in his relationship with his family, turns in desperation to marijuana, and, finally, to hard narcotics. A beginning friendship with a young girl is unable to help the boy's deteriorating condition: he is already hooked The climax of the one-act play circles back to the beginning of the play, with the death of the addicted young boy. The Brick andthe Rose was unique in its approach to drama, deleting all props except for stools, costuming the players in black, and limiting the actions to voice and facial movements. For Paschal, The Brick and the Rose was an uncomfortably true revelation. YESTERDAY AT 5:10 OFFICERS OF THE 15TH PRECINCT REPORTED FOUND DEAD . . .
