Colle ige (Continued from Page 13) play depends on the roles Dionysus and Pentheus. Diony- sus (Larry Pfeiffer) is extreme ly capable in the role. stage presence is excellent am Ms voice is commanding ant pleasant. Pentbeus (George Rippon) is virile and imperious in manner as he questions the phenomenon of the new re The beauty of the choral ode; is vitsl to the play and th performs with brilliance. The odes are closely relatet to the action of the main fig ures and do not become dis Costuming and move ment are excellent features the chorus.

Other extremely strong anc vigorous performances wen given by Cadmus (Frank Flor entine Tetresias (Vincen Niemann) and Agave (Caro Gretsinger). Much of the brilliance of thi final scenes of the play depend upon the recounting of th death of Pentheus. This done by a messenger (Michae Mote) whose performance is bj turns electrifying and subtle. Pentheus' curiosity about th sexeual excesses of the Diony siac rites is his undoing. I his eagerness to watch thes rites and his willingness to in woman's clothes to spy the Bacchantes he is a curiou classical combination of "voy eur" and Myra Breckinridge.

The diretor, Dr. Jack Vrieze, is to be congratulate for his courage in undertakin the production of such a dii ficult play. He receives ex cellent support from the tech nical and production staffs. On of the outstanding contribution was the original music com posed and arranged by Mr Christopher Gallaher. The pro duction presents intriguing tech nical effects.

Technical direc tor and scene designer is Mr Philip Sturdevant. It will be presented for th public today, tomorrow and Sat urday at 8:15 p. in Comp ton Auditorium at Frostburg State College. Our area is indeed fortunate in being able to view such successful production of a rare performed Greek classic. MRS F.
