The scene of the play is a room of an old chauteau of medieval French WNXXs days. The action is woven about the time of a discontented Countess, who plans to run away from her home and husband. She is kept from this by the troubadour's story of his dream of the Nativity. The play was well given. Margaret Linn Hamilton, as the Countess, and Roy Morris, as Arnant, the Troubadour, were exceptionally good. CAST CULIHIPSS . ,. .i ,..,. ........ ,.... ...,......,,.......
