Winslow next week presents THUNDER ROCK , Rohert Anlrey'B unusual fantasy Involving the su- pernatural. First produced hy the Group Theatre in 1939, at the Mansfield Theatre in New York, THUNDER ROCK was staged hy Ella Kazan , the well-known pro- ducer , and its original cast included such famous persons as Myron Mc- cormick, Roman Bohner , Luther Adler , Frances Farmer, and Lee J. Cobh, now starring in DEATH OF A SALESMAN. Michael Redgrave, the well-known English actor, also played the lead in the movie ver- sion of Thunder Rock. THUNDER ROCK has an un- usual setting in that the entire play takes place in the interior of a light-house on Thunder Rock. The lighthouse keeper, disillusioned by the world in which he lives recre- ates a series ot characters who were shipwrecked one hundred years ago. When faced with the men and women he has reincarnatd he gains trom them renewed faith in humanity and rediscovers hope for the world which he has con- demned. Thus the lighthouse be- comes for him an inspiration and a "Tower of Light"; thiB, incidentally was the author's original title for THUNDER ROCK. Robert Ardrey wrote this highly imaginative drama at the age of 24. Originally set on the shores of Lake Michigan, the Monomoy Theatre has adapted it to a lighthouse somewhere off Cape Cod. ' < ' ' ¦ ••' The cast includes: Rick Hollister as Charleston , the lighthouse'keep- er; Wilson Hall as Streeter, Ken Sleeper as Monny, Rohert Bardwell as Inspector Flanning; -plsa Bill Watkins, Richard PuroX Robert Perrault , Sarah Plexlcn/,i Peggy Walker , and Pat Kennell .

An early-model vehicle on the lawn, a lavishly-costumed dummy In the foyer, dungaree-garbed ush- ers, and a program arranged to con- form to the era, tilled the audience With pleasant anticipation , before the opening curtain , which was preceded by appropriate piano se- lections. Divided into live acts, highlighted with olios and divertissements by the ladies and gentlemen of the company, the play, first presented as a serious problem drama , proved to be full of laugh provoking lines and antics, and the cast manoeu- vered their parts with amusing gestures and-flourishes. Richard Purely, cleverly made up as a villainous banker, remained in the character throughout, though tit times at a loss tor words , supplied by the director and cleverly han- dled. Wilson Hall as Badger, the scheming bank clerk , who is aware of his employer 's dishonesty and causes his final unveiling, presents an extraordinary performance, pro- viding much of the audience's laugh - ing response. Appearing In this unusual pres- entation and handling their vari- ous parts skillfully were William Watkins as Edward ; Richard Per- rault, star ot last week's perform- ance, In the dual capacity of Capt. Falrweather and Pussy, the street vendor; Rick Hollister as the once wealthy suitor , who was almost tricked into marrying the banker 's temperamental , cruel daughter, Alida , ably played by Peggy Walk- er; Ken Sleeper and Sarah Plexlco as Paul and Lucy, the Falrweather children , desperate in their pov- erty, with Patricia Kennell as their mother, providing a sad note. Miss Nancy Grant , an apprentice, appearing for the first time, pre- sented a creditable performance as Mrs. Pussy. For a light and amusing evening with ample opportunity for laugh- ter, attendance at this week's pro- duction Is prescribed. Next week Miss Winslow will present Thunder Rock , the Coastal Region Fantasy by Robert Ardrey, opening Wednesday night , August 3, and continuing through Saturday, with a matinee performance on Thursday.
